This is the conformation letter after my phone call to ebay. Also, the items I had listed was 1 graco baby stroller and 1 graco car seat. The car seat had bids and both were only up for approx. 20 hours.
As I stated, this was a new account that was completely verified according to their terms, credit card, phone, email ect. After everything had been verified the account sat for approx. two weeks before listing 1 item.
As far as the policy change, I didn't find anything specific but this is what the women told me on phone.
