Depositing money from paypal to your bank, especially from ebay sales, shouldn't give you any issues. I'd be more worried in general with selling the items on Ebay.
Depending on what you're selling, there are a lot of users who will attempt to SE/scam you as well. Ebay has been known to side with the buyers. Really just be sure to pay the extra couple $ for shipping insurance, and any problems that arise take it up with insurance. I've sold on Ebay for a while, and while I rarely had issues, the times I did it was obvious the buyer was attempting to get something for nothing. When you claim through insurance, they have to send you the item back before they receive a refund, and insurance pays you still. So you basically double dip your own item (You're left with your item + insurance claim money, they get their money back). Abusing that is insurance fraud (obviously) but legitimate claims is what insurance is for, and I've came ahead quite a few times. (Sorry to rant about how to sell on ebay lol)
Ebay also takes around 10% in fees for each item and you have to pay for S&H. I'd personally list the items locally first (Offer up, Craigslist, Facebook, etc) and if you don't sell them within a week a so, then list them on Ebay.
Worst case scenario, if you get caught up with the law regarding your items, ebay is going to leave an obvious trail of everything you've obtained. If you can create anonymous accounts and sell locally, it'll be much harder to bite you in the ass later.
So no, I wouldn't worry about the bank, or getting money from ebay/paypal. I'd just try to act carefully if you plan on SEing items and selling them for a profit. Most people's "SE" is technically stealing, which is where caution is needed.
