eBay's perfect monkey timing gets me a christmas present.
After nearly 4 months, I finally had one of my regular selling accounts suspended again. No biggie and this time I didn't even feel sad about it. Maybe it's because of the fact that the account only had 30 feedback. I listed 60 items on it. It was my fault, I got greedy. Oh well, it happens.
But the funny thing is ..look at this "timeline of events":
1:01am - I make a transfer out of PayPal for $300
2:15am - 60 Listings Removed on eBay
2:31am - Account Suspended Indefinitely
2:44am - eBay Seller Fees Payment Declined
Yep. The monkeys suspended my account 13 minutes before they were to withdraw $503 in seller fees from the account :D
Of course, since it was suspended indefinitely, that means that as soon as I try to withdraw from PayPal, they will limit me. So I'll wait a few days for the last transfer I made to settle. Then it will get limited for 180 days ...which is about until Christmas. Which means I get an additional $503 thanks to eBay to spend on Christmas presents. If they would have waited for 13 more minutes they would have gotten $503 more.
:D
