If the only way I can go about selling on eBay is by doing it discreetly and dishonestly then I prefer not to do it. It IS important for me to sell on there and to go back to the kind of money I was almost about to make, but I am an honest person. And if eBay doesn't want an honest person and seller, then why would I want them? They are dishonest. I don't want to play games and stoop to their level. Besides, it is hard enough work to sell on there without having to be stealth. Sounds like a lot of extra work. And then what if you get trashed again? Then more hard work goes down this ****ter, just like now.
When they told me they gave me the boot because I used a stock image and priced a BIN item too low, I thought they must be crazy...what are they smoking? There must be more to it. Well, I think I may have figured out what it must have been...I had one account that was perfect and I made the mistake of opening a couple more to sell some items separately. The image and BIN price was on one new acct. Then I noticed that on the day before the suspension, on the other new one, my 7th feedback review was negative. Some hick from AL thought that 17 oz of MRE food (a LOT) was supposed to be a whole case. I don't know how she could think that if I listed an 8 oz product and a few 1.5-3 oz products that there could be several pounds of food when I said it was a total of 17 oz (with a pic of only a few items too) and how she could get several pounds, a "case" (she believed that a "lot" meant a case and therefore it was my fault because she was stupid) of food delivered for under $7. Therefore she left ME poor feedback. And this was after I had to wait almost 2 weeks for her to pay. I wrote a couple times and finally opened a Nonpayment case. She had the nerve to do that to me. It brought my 6 feedback/100% down to 7 feedback/84% and it is likely that's what caused it all to come crashing down. It wouldn't have put but a small fraction of a percent of a dent in my several hundred reviews I had in my main account, but it devastated this one and eBay's ax dept doesn't care if it was a stupid person who left bad feedback because SHE doesn't know how much 17 oz is or what a lot is. They just see her, the customer, as being right and now all the hundreds of great reviews I have/had equaled to nothing. It doesn't matter to them that I have a really good account with so many happy customers. Since I have new accounts I am treated like a new seller and now I am a "new seller with an 84% rating". So I am "a threat to the eBay community". That's what they said that the ax dept said and so they want to take their ball and go home and don't want to play with me anymore. Serious. They won't talk to me. I "should go our separate ways and sell on other sites". I am not good enough for the almighty eBay now. Good grief!
And now I can't take care of any of my customers. MY customers. NOT eBay's. I AM eBay's customer. I pay them, not the buyers. The buyers pay me, eBay is a marketplace that facilitates the transactions only. They should have no right to cut me off from my customers and not let me follow up or open up cases that need it or close cases that are pending. Now, they owe me credit too, but I will likely never get it. Once I ship an item, I am not done with a customer. I am not done until they have their product and they are happy with it. Plus, a couple of tracking numbers didn't get synced with PP so I will have to wait much longer to get my pending funds.
The crackers shut down hundreds of dollars in auctions. AND they did it the same day they were running a free listing special that I was waiting for so I could list and relist a boatload. That ignorant hick ruined me! eBay is so unfair and doesn't give a rats ass about any reasons why anything happened. They just quickly draw their conclusions with very limited info. Judge, no jury, and executioner-in-one. GUILTY with no defense!
And yes, it might as well be "eternal suspension", vogeltron.
Or how about "eternal damnation in eBay hell"...?

Anyone ever reinstated after Indefinite Suspension?
