- - MC-999 on new acc
( https://www.aspkin.com/forums/ebay-suspensions/153989-mc-999-new-acc.html)
| ringworm | 10-12-2025 04:10 PM | MC-999 on new acc Received an MC-999 suspension on an account today. Had ~20 sales in the first week. Most sales have been shipped with some delivered, positive feedback received. About 3k on hold.
I called and they asked me a bunch of questions to verify what I’m selling, where I’m getting it from, etc. I *thought* I was about to be reinstated and then the agent comes on the phone and notifies me that the suspension is permanent and I will not get my account back. They would not tell me why. My main account is not suspended….
Am I at least going to receive my money? |
| calvin07 | 10-12-2025 04:24 PM | Re: MC-999 on new acc If your eBay account is real and verified, they will send the money after 60 days. |
| phaz0rz | 10-12-2025 04:25 PM | Re: MC-999 on new acc Probably, but they may want to hold the funds for 90 days or whatever.
FWIW it sounds like you jumped in a little too quick. Assuming the 3k is from that first week, puts the average item price around $150. Best to start out with much smaller numbers and slowly build up to that kind of volume as you prove to the platform you're a trustworthy seller who can stay on top of things. |

Am I at least going to receive my money? | So you sold 3k in revenue in your first week? That's your answer! |

Well did they say anything in the email about your funds? |

Welcome to the forum OP - all the best as you master stealth :thumb: http://youtu.be/TLcuTISVs3s
What category of sales (specifics of items aren't needed but info can help for discussion)? | Collectibles mainly. Signed books, posters, etc. My main account remains unsuspended. |

Is it linked to your main account? I'd be worried about that |

Read online that you could have multiple eBay accounts, so I made another. I’m guessing they linked the two and decided I was bypassing the restriction on my main account and banned my secondary.
My main account remains functional with seller limits in place. |

My main account remains functional with seller limits in place. | Remains functional for now - never can be sure when/if it goes down. Recommendation is to make other backup stealths.
Go light on the main account to avoid hyperfocus |
