Chance of getting old account back?
 

Hi Everyone,

My Old Ebay Account has been restricted since Jan 28th, 2014, I am wondering if there is anyway i can get my account back, I have gotten lots of positive feedback from buying items, and im wondering if the low DSR's will fall off. would it be worth calling them about it,

My Ebay Feeback is 274 97.3%

Buying feedbacks don't count for squat...old DSR's falling off don't bring you back either. i got a 10 year account killed because of 1 over low DSR back in october, they have since fallen off and ebay has even made that account a TRS, even though it's restricted and always will be. If you got limited for DSR's, say a kind word and bury it....it's never gonna be back on...cut your losses and go stealth...Exactly what I had to do.

I have a family member who has 25k feedback, 99.9%, top rated power seller since 1996 and they got canned because her shipping dsr dropped below 4.7 and when she called ebay they said past history means nothing to them, current poor shipping is what they look at and never got her account back.

Ridiculous they dont even look at year and years of top selling and because she is a nurse and never knows her hours she fell behind on shipping and lost her account.

Numerous calls and nothing.

Ebay is run by idiots. 17+ years and 25,000 probably buyers tell me she is a Seller a Trader...and Ebayer. They will beat the piss out of us sellers and essentially eating the hands of the people that feed them. The sellers who still are on can be scared to death. I recently spoke with a person I purchased something off craigslist. When i went to her house i saw all the packing materials and USPS boxes and assumed she was in the ebay business. I assumed right. She is a very good seller and even she held her stomach to her chest every night when she sat down to CONFRONT feedback.

Feedback/DSR scores are pretty much why i am here for the same reason she was let go. I keep it going. I am the verge of losing my family right now and my woman is going to let me go if i don't come up with a solution and fast.

I am putting my hoping to get my website back online that was taken down to FOCUS 100% on ebay.

wow!

I just told an international buyer on ebay about using webstore.com, and he purchased my item for sale on there. I sell the same items there that i sell on ebay. I sold a hardcover book boxed set for $69.99, plus $34.99 shipping. to ship the item from Barnes & Noble only cost me $58 and i made a profit of $45

This site is so awesome, no selling fees and you get to keep all the money!

Maybe after one year you can start from near scratch if you can talk to the correct people. The problem is with a one year old inactive account you will have a heck of a hard time getting to the correct department without knowing a name or have a reference number or whatnot and then you will have to leave a message and hopefully they will get back with you.
