Message from Ebay

Hi Robert,
Congratulations! You've been doing a great job selling on eBay, and we've noticed. How would you like to list even more? Now you can.
Here's how much you can now list every month:

Message from Paypal

Due to changes in your activity we have limited your account, please provide invoices, proof of fulfilment and Picture ID
Then: Account permanently limited.

Don't you just love it.

phaz0rz · #2 10-26-2018

No, not really.

Looks like you sold too much too quickly. eBay loved it and Paypal hated it. Pretty standard.

JamesNorth101 · #3 10-26-2018

Anything you do to please eBay will usually annoy PayPal

Its hard to get the balance right!

Kajunrook · #4 10-26-2018

Well I listed slowly,
1st month $60 in sales

2nd $110

3rd $130

4th $150

Fifth month a guy bought 4 of 4 different items and total was $120, INSTANT LIMITATION

phaz0rz · #5 10-26-2018

It's crazy how hard it's getting to work with Paypal. That's taking it insanely slow and you still got limited after 5 months. I'm just thankful larger payments like that don't kill older accounts, or I'd be out of business within a week.

What was your quantity of sales each month?

Frankly I'm really annoyed for you. And the rate you are going seems to be fine. Hell it's a lot lower than what I do to my new accounts.

phaz0rz · #9 10-26-2018

In all seriousness Kajun, this probably had a lot more do to with the items you sell than your sales volume over 5 months. You're still selling those highly profitable things you were selling before, right?

Kajunrook · #10 10-26-2018

Only about 10% the other items were not, and the guy that bought$120 worth bought no trademarked items.

Ah, nevermind then. Probably just Paypal being skittish about new users. :(

slokor · #12 10-26-2018

Looks like its time for you to sign up to eBay's new method of payment Beta program with Adyen and cut paypal out of the loop.
I wonder if that is one of the considerations for ebay when they decided to go this route and part ways with paypal as their main payment processor. Certainly seems to make sense.

nickopedia · #13 10-26-2018

What makes great sense is when your eBay account gets suspended and continue to get lots of seller offers; free listings, promos and the like.

At EB/PP the laft hand often doesn't know that the right one is doing. Logic is defied.

Kajunrook · #14 10-26-2018

So here is the deal, my main account got toasted forever, my back up account got paypal limited. My main accounts paypal is still good and I could sell $5000 on it with no issues, EIN attached and everything. So I migrated all of my none vero items to my backup ebay (which by the way just got allowed listing to raise to 240 from 120 a month $12,000 the day after I lost my paypal. Attached my rock solid paypal from suspended ebay account to it. Changed email address on paypal (added email weeks ago) and resumed selling, will sweep all but $50 from paypal daily. Already got 5 sales.

Odds of Kajun being approved are probably around 1 in a million.

ebaystealth1974 · #17 10-26-2018

Yeah, really lol...

phaz0rz · #18 10-26-2018

I paid my first adyen seller today, I'm pretty sure. It didn't give me a Paypal option and the guy wasn't using a merchant account - so I assume that had to be adyen. He had an obviously phake item listed for an unrealistically low price, with a feedback of 2.

So maybe the approval process isn't going to be so bad.

**SaiJin** · #19 10-26-2018

From what I've seen the approval process is typical.
Tax ID, Driver's license, bank account.

phaz0rz · #20 10-26-2018

Noted. I started thinking about what I had to do the last time I had to be "approved" by a payment processor (TSYS), and got worried about having to be "approved" by eBay.

My opinion is that it won't be like that. Adyen processes payments for other big companies and I highly doubt they'd take in an exclusive eBay system.

From what I've seen they are just like other processors.
