Ebay asking me to send VAT invoice when I am a private seller?

Does ebay automatically assume I am a business seller or a private seller by default? Sold some personal items and ebay asked me to send a vat invoice. I read others have had their accounts restricted so I cancelled the order and refunded the gentelman he's money. I mainly use ebay for purchases, but want to know if I can still sell privately? I'd hate to waste more of my own or anyone elses time.

Whether this is a glitch I don't know, BUT selling Brand New Items is the sign of an Unregistered Business.  Private sellers are not expected to be selling Brand new items.
