Mentor10 months agoSince you last sold there have been many changes, which includes having a registered bank account, paypal is no longer used for receiving payments.
Suggest you read this as without a bank account you cannot be paid, so logically cannot sell.

Mentor10 months agoIf you've not had any messages, how do you know that the account has been restricted from selling indefinitely?
Where are you seeing this?

OP10 months agoWhen I draft a listing, I’m not allowed to post it. Fail at the last every time! It could be that I don’t have a bank account linked, only PayPal as mentioned below, so I’ll try that first.
thank you!

Mentor10 months agoThat doesn't sound like a suspension if you're not seeing a message telling you that your account has been suspended.
It sounds as @john1297576 says, that your account just needs some updating in order to sell.
PayPal is no longer as a method for sellers to receive payments, they must add a bank account.
