Business operations registered as private sellers - worth reporting?

[txt.ltd]

In your own experience, does eBay take satisfactory action on these accounts that are clearly buying goods to resell as a profitable enterprise?

I'd report them more often if I knew eBay takes action consistent with their policy.

I bookmark those I report and the results are very inconsistent.

It's a tad disappointing.

If eBay were interested in stopping businesses trading on a private account, they would. They are very aware of this practice and condone it.

ebay very very occassionally will tell a private seller to switch to a business account, but it seems to be very rare.

There is no option to report it. As I've said before many times:

"Business seller fails to display correct contact details" is for reporting those who are business registered but have different contact details or obscure ones that wouldn't match such as Mickey mouse, Disneyland, Florida. 

It isn't for reporting those business sellers on private accounts. 

eBay know about them but they don't give a ****. I guess it's why I don't give 2 ****'s about eBay anymore either.

As #4 post, there is not an option to report. The eBay chat team finally  admitted this .

Also I believe it is AI that see reports.  Saw that on weekely chat aswell .

Report to trafing standards, HMRC, even local councils if you know addresses.

Unlike eBay, the above are less likely to bury their heads in the sand
