Hi Mario,
Can you change my user name to \"qiyuhk\" so I can link my new ebay account with the same user name? My current subscription will be expired next Feb and I don't want to wait that long to register new account.
Much thanks in advance.

There really isn't much point in changing your Gixen id, you can achieve what your want just by changing the Ebay account that Gixen is authorised to place bids on in the second section of the Settings page.

In fact, since your Gixen account is an entirely different entity from your Ebay account, the longstanding advice is NOT to use the same credentials for them, as that increases your own security.

However, if you really want to have a new name, the way to do that would be to register a new Gixen account, in that new name (assuming someone else has not already taken that id) and then transfer your Mirror subscription to that new Gixen account using the Mirror transfer form, which can also be accessed from the Settings page.

Much thanks for your info. I will try to register new account and apply the transfer.
