Questions about negative feedback on new account
 

I've been on ebay for a little over a year now, with very little activity. A few months ago I started getting back into ebay but I was just buying. Then I decided to try my hand at selling. I wanted to create a separate account for selling so I did. My first few transaction on my original account went very well, but my last transaction on my new account went wrong. The buyer opened a case and left negative feedback WITHOUT contacting me.

Anyway, that is the second case opened against me as a seller. The cases were on different accounts, but the accounts are linked.

How many cases can I get before ebay suspends my account? If they do suspend it, how long will my first suspension be for?

In general, 1 negative feedback wont kill the account BUT if you are sell high risk items and lot of complaints come in...it can vary. You can never be 100% sure what eB will do.

If you are suspended for high risk items or questionable activity, the general tendency is 7 days. That being said, your account can be canned outright.

Read around - learn stealth

All the best
