I have read many posts where sellers end his stealth accounts because Ebay ask to proof of merchandise. Reason was that you cant send ⊗⊗⊗⊗ supplier invoice because Ebay often contact the supplier. I know that supplier cant provide to Ebay personal data, but Ebay can ask to supplier in regarding that supplier products are sold on Ebay, if the seller is real or not, I dont know I only think that it maybe can be possible, I think you maybe know better so you can advice how it is, if is true or not, but why then sellers closed stealth accounts with thousands feedbacks when Ebay ask for proof of merchandise?

And how can help these people? Because create invoice in photoshop is quite easy, if you have some invoice which is similar and you know what on the invoice should be, but what about Ebay, really Ebay cant contact supplier directly? they can? or not? have someone experience with similar issue? now I do experiment with it, ebay ask me to proof of merchandise for selling handmade bracelets, I sent to ebay invoice from web shop of my friend...

How did you resolve when ebay asked to proof of merchandise or proof of owners? I try to send invoice of my friend eshop and ebay will still ask again to provide something other, move you from one to other department to contact and again provide same, after time it will not make sense and you will never know if your documents is valid for ebay or not, they will be never respond: yes it is correc and you cant continue, if they feel that something is maybe not clear, rather they will be not respond you to any question and your account stay restriced all the time... problem is not proof of identity or adress... problem is proof of merchandise and other documents related to the product you have sold

I have been here longer than the age of this thread about 13 years and I have 13 year old stealth eBay accounts.
Just putting it out there. I know it’s frustrating but there’s hope it can be done
Re: anybody been on unmolested for more than 12 months?
My wife is queen of ebay...has been on since 2001. They regularly remove negative feedback from her account because they think she is the bomb. She has 20,000 positive feedback. Like, three negatives...and two of those are because of me.
Ebay can be done.
I've started my own account and have been running it since 2017...no problems. Not sure why you are getting suspended.
Re: anybody been on unmolested for more than 12 months?
It is not hard to last on eBay.
You have to understand and research your market as much as possible. That includes taking notes and observing most activities. Even those of your competitors. If you are in the electronics market or one that's known for counterfeits and such, that rule certainly applies to you.
eBay Stealth is just one tool (if not the most important) that helps with lasting.
However, you have to combine that with your product knowledge and move accordingly.

Re: anybody been on unmolested for more than 12 months?
I got to say some people on here are lying about how long they had a stealth account without no problem...I got 1 account going over a year now...And that because I only sell couple thousand or less a month on it..sometimes 600-800 a month...If you selling stuff in high volume you gonna get a message from ebay or paypal in 6-7 months...it never fells....And I been doing this for over 4 years...maybe the older accounts are safer...best to have 15-20 accounts going at the same time to cover the dead accounts you gonna get..It keeps the money flowing....
Re: anybody been on unmolested for more than 12 months?
