I don't know if eBay does it all the time, but this seems to be what they do now.

Reason why they only take down the new account is cause you can use some other sellers info match everything 100% and even get a ip in his area then get banned then they would link you 2 him and ban him to but ebay knows this and wont banned the older account due to this issue.

I remeber back in 2003 when a m8 of mine figerd out the giftcard trick we was able to use other sellers info and get them banned for begin linked and heck we used some powersellers info and couldnt get banned for crap we listed everything u can think of and they would not banned us just give us warnings lol. Just shows powersellers gets away with alot of trated alot better then us peaons.
