Hello, Not sure where else to go, so perhaps some had similar experience and might have some recommendation. I don't know whether this forum is checked by eBay themselves. Long story short, this is a private account, been with eBay since '05. Selling stuff occasionally, buying. Last thing I sold was almost a year ago. Not a single complaint, no cancellations, returns or anything. November 4th received this message: eBay regularly evaluates the accounts of eBay seller. In relation to your account, we have noticed that your account performance and activities may cause a risk to eBay community. To protect the eBay community, we have applied the following restrictions to your eBay account in accordance with the eBay user agreement and eBay policies:(a) Your selling privileges are restricted. Consequently, you will neither be able to create new listings nor revise your existing listings on any eBay site; and (b) Your payments have been placed on hold.Restriction reason: High risk selling.The safety of our community is a top priority for us. We appreciate your understanding in this matter.Regards,eBay When contacting eBay team - was told temporary restriction performed by T&S team and to get back to them in a month. Which I did. Just to find, as the title says, to be permabanned from selling. In trying to contact higher profile eBay members to shed some light on what is going, was told information cannot be disclosed in order not to be made public. Judging by their logic - I am a high-risk criminal, who is a wonder why not in prison 🙂 So, here I am trying to figure out what to do. I mean, obviously, eBay is not the only platform that allows to sell things, but I find myself to be accused of things I had not done and I don't think such behaviour is justifiable. OK, I can rant all day long, it won't help things. So maybe if someone might have some advise, I would sincerely appreciate it.
