Think tougher since the split?
 

Am I the only one or does anyone else think eb & pp have gotten a little tougher since they split a few days ago? I had 2 stealth accounts 1 was over a year old that were in good standing go down this past week. 1st eb and then the pp's got limited a few days later. I actually have $500 in one of them that I hope I get in 6 months.

Ebay seems to be purging sellers in many categories. It was helpful to me as far as sales go.

Some people say ebay has gotten tougher and others say paypal is tougher now.
I myself have not seen any difference in my operations.

sometimes I think a little toughness is good. too easy is not good at times. let the strong willed and determined survive:juggle:

Yes I see a big difference after split. PayPal limiting more account, I had 5 PayPal accounts, all got limited, with no reason.

All at the same time?

Problem is that people see what they want to see.

I agree. We have people getting selling limits approaching one million when they old sold 10K last month and many of us have had selling limits doubled last week.
Then other people are reporting paypal bans and ebay for sure cut down sellers in many categories but who knows if it has anything to do with the split.

Maybe it is just the normal cyclical cycle.

ha, just like all the fear mongering in the et.sy forums here. only the people getting sus.pended swear there is huge changes occurring and mass purging.

somehow, perhaps with my vast black magic skills, my accounts run like usain bolt

Its an excuse.

Most sellers who get suspended and doing stealth typically don't know what stealth step they are over looking so instead of looking at the root problem they blame outside circumstances.

Not saying OP is doing this but a general rule of thumb this is almost ALWAYS the case when someone gets suspended. Its never what they did, its what eBay did or paypal did. But the reality is ...most of us are just fine.

If and only if we get tons of members saying they have problems then its possible but highly doubtful at the moment.

i purchased all of my 30 ebay accounts and i am very meticulous about details. i have zero problems so far.

when you create accounts yourself with limited experience, be ready for pitfalls in your method.
