Database used by ebay to target location
 

Hi guys,
I have been recently using luminati which is a service for residential Static IPs.
I purchased three IP addresses, and I found a problem.
Everytime, I create a new ebay account I get suspended right away, about 30 minutes, before even listing or bidding.
When I went to luminati settings for the IP addresses I found that the IP addresses location varies with the database used by the targer website.
For instance, for 161.123.47.241 the location shown by maxmind, dbip, and ip2location is Japan, while google shows UK.
Besides, whoer.net shows that this ip address is from UK, while when I test in https://ipgeolocation.io/browse/ip/161.123.47.240 it shows South Africa.
I'm kind of confused.
So can you please give any clarifications about this?
And what kind of Databases are used by ebay to target location?
Thanks a lot for your help.
