Default Is the eBay Ban Wave over?

Around the end of November I lost alot of my accounts at the same time. Some of them were aged accounts that I worked on for a long time. Has eBay slowed down a little with suspensions? I’m talking about suspensions when you know for a fact you did everything right and got suspended. I read somewhere that the ban wave last until after the holidays. Tell me your experience.

So are you saying that there was no added security for the Christmas holidays? Basically the same eBay bots before and after Christmas?

Around major holidays,Ebay has software which look at listings selling toys which are not in circulation yet or in high demand,it would ask the sellers to show invoices that they have placed orders with the vendors.
It would also look at new sellers with low or zero rating selling high risk items
if you are a honest seller,you should be fine

Never make it that far to where they ask for invoices. Just weird suspensions without notice

Default Re: Is the eBay Ban Wave over?

this holiday season was the worst ive seen. totally innocent accounts just getting banned because they had the audacity to start selling only a few months prior to holiday

they've calmed down in that respect, but they're still pretty restrictive. you have to find what works for you. the biggest thing for me is not ramping up my sales too quick within 90 days. since I figured out how to solve that problem, my accounts generally manage to survive and thrive

I knew I wasn’t the only one. I had accounts I never touched in months getting suspended for no reason. And you right about the sales part. If you spike in sales the first month you going to go through all kinds of payment holds and eventually mc011 restriction. I will not give up until I master stealth 🥷

Default Re: Is the eBay Ban Wave over?

ebay used to send out letters to its toy sellers ,briefing them what is hot approaching Xmas so they can place orders in advance.
Some are not yet released but they will be able to start listing them early ,if they can prove they have placed an advance order with the toy makers.
This is an example of bot only need around Xmas.

Managing over 700 accounts
Since Octomber 2021 I had a lot of bans too

http://prntscr.com/RvnkHAZAQfVq

I could get 40 bans in 1 day, 2021 Octomber,November,December,Jan22 were the hardest in my life of working with ebay, now a bit better

Everything in my setup is best 5G proxy, real phone, real data etc etc. Their antifraud system from Oct21 to Jan2022 killed almost all my accounts. I had accounts that last 3 years, almost all of them died xD, now situation is better

This.

In my opinion, most likely it's something in your account creation method that is getting you linked. They're all coming in at the same time on multiple accounts- that suggests a link.

Well now I feel better since I wasn’t the only one. I was getting accounts suspended that was Top Rated Seller. I worked so hard on those accounts I would have never expected them to go down all at once. Around the exact same time as you Oct21 to Jan 22. Every day I wake up. Either suspended or mc011 restriction. I was getting so many suspensions I joined this forum on Dec21 to learn what I was doing wrong. I will not quit until I master stealth 🥷
