Your eBay account has been suspended because recent account activity has raised security concerns. We've taken this precaution to protect our members while we make sure that the activity doesn't cause harm--even unintentionally--to the eBay community.

Unfortunately, you won't be able to use eBay in any way. This includes using another existing account or registering a new account.

Any outstanding fees will be due immediately, and any amounts that you haven't previously disputed will be charged to the billing method currently on file.

We appreciate your understanding.

Re: Help! Item sold no payment but suspended account?
 

new account and high priced item?

have you read the stealth guide?

Re: Help! Item sold no payment but suspended account?
 

no it was an auction that just so happened to raise that high,

it sold so it obviously wasnt a problem. idk im confused as hell rn

Re: Help! Item sold no payment but suspended account?
 

just because it sold doesn't mean it wasn't flagged for suspension.
if it was a new account, i would say high price = high risk and that's the reason but i'll let others chime in.

also, are you sure this account was not linked in anyway? sometimes suspension comes 1-2 days after opening an account add a high priced item and this will happen.

Re: Help! Item sold no payment but suspended account?
 

Of course it was a problem.

It was a major problem to EBAY.

They control the game.

Describe your account, including paypal. Age, etc etc.

You got zapped because ebay dislike accounts that present risks. If this was amongst your first listings, you are a major risk.

Confirm the notice is MC999.

BTW, did you make the listing before or after you joined here?

If after, then you should do a lot more reading.

It's been live for about 2 weeks and I created a new user and new ip every log in

Re: Help! Item sold no payment but suspended account?
 

there's the problem. $1000 transaction on a new account. you have no credibility.

move on, if he pays, refund & don't ship. make a new account, follow stealth rules. READ THE FORUM, READ READ READ READ.

I cant stress that enough, stop making unnecessary mistakes that can be prevented.

Establish an account, & by that, work your way up.

Start by selling $10 items, to $50, to $200, etc etc. and even then it's quite risky.

Age an account, keep the account pristine ( feedback )

Re: Help! Item sold no payment but suspended account?
 

Agree with Pasicel,

Selling items with that valuation is risky on any account. If you don't have at least 50 selling feedback preferably 100 or even more. Lots of selling history. Those transactions will be flagged.

Re: Help! Item sold no payment but suspended account?
 

$1000 on an account 2 weeks old is way too much. It was always going to end badly.

Need to build credibility in EB and PP eyes first

Re: Help! Item sold no payment but suspended account?
 

The auction is void because account was suspended. Best to create new stealth account - or, if you want - try to have this account reinstated but it can be difficult

Re: Help! Item sold no payment but suspended account?
 

Yup, start slow and build your way up from there. Call Ebay up, they will let you know what they need to reinstate your account or if it is permanently suspended. If so start from scratch but start slow

Re: Help! Item sold no payment but suspended account?
 

Thanks for the response

Both pp and eb were created at the same time about 2-3 weeks ago.

I am speaking with eBay as I type and you guys are right, he's saying selling an

expensive item is risky and that I need to establish myself. I just thought it

would work because my very first eBay account before the stealth I made a

710$ Sell with the same new eb reputation.

Re: Help! Item sold no payment but suspended account?
 

Some fall though the cracks, 95% of expensive auctions on brand new accounts will get looked at.

Re: Help! Item sold no payment but suspended account?
 

Yeah I mean if the buyer paid within a couples hours of the time the itme ended

i wouldve been good money..it just blows.

And my "girl" friend (just a friend) bought me the iPhone 5 on a brand new

verizon wireless plan, is it possible to disconnect from MY wi-fi and pursue

stealth through the safari? New IP ADDRESS correct?

Re: Help! Item sold no payment but suspended account?
 

You can use your phone as long as your not connected to your home wifi. Also possible is tethering to your home pc. Which ever method you choose make sure you log IP changes if you plan to use multiple accounts.

Re: Help! Item sold no payment but suspended account?
 

im just basically wanting to create 1 right now.

disconnecting to my wifi and using the safari to create my EB, PP, and GMAIL.

i may use the dongle after everything is set up
