I agree with POD. Spread out your risk. As you have just learned the hard way, eBay eliminates sellers at the drop of a hat, it makes no difference how long you have been selling or how much volume you do.
Have several accounts. That way, if one goes down it doesn't take 100% of your business with it.
Also, look at the weakest points in your account that went down. What was generating the negative feedback? What is your lowest DSR? Once you have the answers, try to correct the problem, if at all possible.
You mentioned you had two accounts. If they are linked, get ready for the possibility of the other one to go down as well.
In the short term, this is a bad thing for you. But if you follow the Stealth guidelines and spread out your risk, your business could end up in a much stronger position. So this could be a blessing in the long run.
