I listed approx. 2,000 ex-library books during the summer on a (now) banned seller account (that account got banned because I was being stupid and accidently entered the bank number of a previously suspended account)
About 2 weeks later I wanted to get back selling on Amazon so I created a brand new seller account and started relisting all the exact same inventory from my recently banned account all over again
... and within less than one day my account was DELETED (I was blocked out and couldn't even log it)
I guess Amazon is smart and knows that even though a seller account was brand new with a different address, if all the inventory is the same, then, it must be the same old seller back again
