Why is my location set to china when I’m in UK

Question

I’m based in Uk, my profile says UK when I log in but when I try to list it states China as location. I can’t sell an item due to restrictions.

Looks like your account was accessed at one point and they changed the regsitered address to China. You may want to contact eBay, but you may also find that you need to open a new account instead, I'm not sure that they can switch it back to UK.

On the listing form, look down the form for preferences. That shows location which should come up on any item listed. If for some reason it says China then correct it.

You feedback page shows you are in China.

If you moved to UK, you have to open a new UK ebay account.

If you your account has been hacked and details changed, use this link.
