All Ended Listings "Removed from eBay" After Non-Payment Suspension?
When an account holder fails to pay eBay fees, after about a month, selling privileges are restricted, and after about 2 months, the account is suspended for non-payment.
I recently noticed that one account I had set up that I was abandoning due to its end-of-life status and a $1,500 eBay bill had *all* its hundreds of listings removed by eBay after or shortly after it was suspended for non-payment. The possibility exists that l@w enf0rcement may be involved in the account in some way as a result of the items I was selling. I am guessing that if l@w enf0rcement was involved, I would not get a message from eBay telling me anything about it. Just to be clear, the account has 500+, 100% positive feedback, and 5.0/5.0 DSR's in every category. Therefore, I am trying to determine whether the ended listings were "removed from eBay" per a l@w enf0rcement investigation, or if it is common practice for eBay to remove listings for any "No Longer a Registered User" account?
Here is the boilerplate message I received regarding the suspension: Quote:
We've reached out to you on numerous occasions regarding the unpaid seller fees that are due on your eBay account. To date, we have not received your payment.Your account is now suspended. This means all of your current listings have been removed and you can no longer list new items on eBay. In short, you can no longer sell (and earn money) on eBay.
