At some point last year I had my account restricted such that I could not sell any items. I had sold some items that were prohibited, a stash of girly magazines I acquired. These were things that were freely on sale to the public in shops not so long ago but anyway I accept its not for Ebay and that's their rules. I have sold lots of other items over the years so I'm not trying to set up some kind of online soho store.
For a long time after this I didn't have anything to sell but now have a collection of various items I'd like to sell but when I attempted to it let me set up my first listing before telling at the very end that my account is restricted please refer to messages to take steps to get account reinstated.
This is all very well but any such message is not in my inbox any more and every avenue I've tried with ebay "help and customer service" refers me to an AI Bot who can only repeats this instruction to refer to my non-existent message and I'm stuck forever goint round this infinite loop.
The only chance of breaking I could find was the suggestion to refer to this community forum which seems pretty poor that eBay seems to expect its customers to provide its own customer service to each other, despite AI Bot making teasing refernce to the option to speak to an "agent". Have not been able to track down this option.
So here I am, apologies for the long story but can anyone offer help or advice please?
