Hi Guys,
I just got suspended from ebay on the 9th June '10. I had two minor policy breaches on my account (Downloadable Media) and my last most recent (And final) suspension was due to "MC019 Copyright Violation".
Basically, I was selling a simple cheat for a Games console, and ebay removed my listing saying I was selling software "To hack the games console" Which I wasn't, It was simply a game file to allow people to unlock extra levels without having to play the game for over 14 Days non-stop to unlock (Thats how long it took me to unlock it legitimately),
Really pee'd off, I have an excellent ebay account with no late fees or negative feedback (Not that it matters to ebay). And also I wasnt in violation of ANY copyright what so ever.
Just want to know, Is their any chance of this account being reinstated. I spoke to ebay via live chat, and they said in 6-12 months they can review the case.
But want to know if in 6-12 months what are my chances of this account being reinstated?
I dont understand why we all dont get together and do something about this. I mean without sellers ebay would be NOTHING, no sellers = no buyers. Looking at
ebay's stock price, thier heading downhill big time. And now have one less sellers to take fees off. (I sell alot of DVD's, Games and Health and beauty products, varying from £20 - £40 final sale price).
Ever since sellers cant leave buyers negative feedack,
sellers are extremely worse of selling on ebay, I've had a couple of chargebacks from dodgy sellers on ebay which ebay did nothing about, (Just took the money right out of my paypal account & Bank account) and I lost the product (Valued between £20 -£40 Per product), and I couldnt warn any other sellers (By leaving negative feedback for the buyer) about this dodgy buyer. So most probably they'll do it again and again...
Im sure if we all got together and thought of something we could do something, ANYTHING, to at least drop their stock price (Which we could benefit from by shorting their stocks on a spread betting platform or Share dealing company)
We have alot of users on this site, (Im new)
But in great numbers we have great strength. I mean even something as simple as reporting ALL the listings that infringe any sort of ebay violations (Which would be tons of listings) = More people get suspended indefinitely of ebay, Which means... ebay makes less money and stocks tumbles more.
I dont really want to sell anymore on ebay, because of the fact thier is not protection what so ever in place to help protect sellers. I just dont see the point anymore. Just be a buyer from ebay, and your protected.. Im going to start doing a few chargebacks of my own, This is just not on.
1. So does anyone think we could unite and a group and do something about this?
As individuals ebay will just trample over all of us, As a group... We can trample over them.
2. Also, What are the chance my account could be reinstated in 6-12 months? Any opinions are greatly welcomed and appreciated!
I'm new to this forum and hope to be a dedicated member from now on, I never realised how unfair ebay are (Even though it was US (the sellers) that made ebay what it is), they really don't care do they?.. I mean if I was a multi-BILLION dollar company, I probably wouldn't either (UNTIL SOMEONE DOES SOMETHING TO MAKE ME REALISE MY WAYS).
