hello all.
i was on here about 2 years ago when i received the dreaded your account has been suspended email and all of my e bay went to sh!t. i bought the e bay
Stealth Book and followed it very thoroughly. the things that helped me was i moved about the same time i needed to make a new account and just based it on all of my new info with a family name (used with permission from someone older and has never been on a computer for all i know) so i had a new name with a valid ssn, a new address, a new phone number, i went and opened up a dba bank account, and was doing so great till yesterday morning.
i received the mc999 email. where i can still buy all i want but my dsr's were so low they decided to boot me off.........wait for it, i'll tell you my dsr counts
the dsr's were 4.9 description, 4.8 communication, 4.6 shipping time, 4.8 shipping fees and with a feedback of 99.6 with over 1200 auctions.
i got the "you are below our seller standards" email a month ago and they said i needed to ship faster so for the month of march i dropped my sales to make sure i got everything out the very next day instead of within 3-5 days, everything i do is custom work and i also state this in every auction. i received 5 stars all for the month of march but only sold about 50 items compared to the 400 items i usually a month and they booted me.
what do they expect 5 stars or nothing at all??? i have even read that some buyers give 4 stars thinking the transaction was great but maybe took an extra day to get, but they still enjoyed the item and the transaction but this still hurts an e bay seller.
so i came back here to the forums, updated to stealth 3.1 and will be doing my best to get back on within the next month.
i am here to ask any new pointers since i have been gone. i will be going through the forums as i did before, so i will do my best to find answers that arise.
thanks again to everyone from the past that helped and the future

p.s.- i am also officially going to etsy and amazon as well (with my own info) to try those fields out. i really hate e bay as much as the next person but the traffic they have is unbeatable right now for what i sell.
