If the ebay account has a good feedback score and you want it protected then open a stealth pp account and use that.
You've not said why your account was limited or whether it was connected to what you were listing.
These things may affect what happens if you open a new PP account.
Unfortunately you can't change the paypal address on any listings that are running and your buyers won't be able to pay so you might aswell close the auctions now.
If the limitation is connected to ebay listings then you could expect that to close too but if it was just the usual Paypal nonsense then just open a new account and relist your items. You won't be able to list anything new until you have a working PP account.
If you have enough credit cards and bank accounts available you could open a PP account to use on your existing ebay and also open another PP and new ebay account again and start from scratch.
If the ebay account you are using has your real details you might want to keep it going as long as possible but open stealth accounts in case closure comes.
Limited paypal accounts can become unlimited if you follow their instructions but whether that is possible will depend on the reasons they've limited it.
If you have funds in the account you can in some cases make refunds to buyers.
Then use a friends paypal account to send them a payment request and get the money that way. It won't connect your friends account to you but it will enable you to get your money - assuming buyers are helpful.
Some might think its dodgy and some won't want to do it anyway so you might lose out but better to lose out than for PP to keep it
