Power Seller Tossed out of ebay and Paypal
 

1000+ 100% feedback. Had a group of nasty competetors who relentlessly complained to ebay about me claiming I was selling counterfeit items. I stayed in contact with ebay, told them what was going on, but they eventually got me shut down. I tried everything. Blocking bidders, etc. But they just change buyer ids or have other people bid. Then they file claims. Total craziness. I was selling $15,000-$25,000 per month. Now I'm down to a big FAT $0. What happened to the days when ebay was BEGGING for sellers???

I am over being annoyed. Now I'm just sad.

I've made lots of mistakes. I immediately signed up with another ebay account and was immediately shut down.

I have purchased STEALTH and I am learning. Thanks to all.

competitors are actually the worst problem I have seen on this forum, other stuff can be avoided for the most part, but competitors can be personal and follow you like a bad smell....and your issue will now be what goods you choose to sell for next time...

Welcome to the forum.Good luck

Stealth is a good way to approach - welcome to the forums. Make multiple accounts and spread the sales. Sucks to hear about your situation but many of us have had that happen

Don't worry we all went through what ur going thru now, once u master stealth u will realize how much stronger u are and more in control using stealth accounts , u won't have to worry again about ur entire business being shut down , once u study the stealth guide create multiple stealth and spread ur sales out as much as u can and u will feel in control again. GOOD LUCK!!

I only have these issues when my price is lowest. I have learned never to be that guy, blend in.

Competitors are a bigger threat than eBay...unbelievable

Been there and now much stronger, lots more money and doing far better then when I had one account.

Got my original account back but still love my stealths.

Any account can go at any time.

But if you have 100s they will have a hard time kicking my butt again.

I am prepared this time and I dont lose.


:yar:

that's just the thing. I ran "auctions" rather than BIN's. So I wasn't always the "lowest priced" competetor. Very frustrating.

Thanks so much to everyone for the warm welcome. Makes me feel much better knowing I'm not alone in this.

been there
 

Hi dude been exactly where you are !!
GO STEALTH AND DON'T LOOK BACK !!:ninja:

This scares me. I'm sorry to hear this OP, you would think with the kind of revenue you were generating on BEHALF of ebay alone (in fees!) they could at least stand behind a seller a little better.

Hang in there and good luck rebuilding.

scumbags, they always get what they deserve in the end

your in the right place, read the stealth guide, also check out another avenue amazon ghost

don't put all your eggs in one basket

prepare for the worst as i imagine your inventory generates a lot of hate & competition

its sad but there is a lot of greedy people out there who cant play fair


i always tell my kids " never throw the first punch", after that do what ever you gotta do

Massive Welcome to the Forums :welcome;

Good Luck on your Stealth/Ghost Journey :thumb:

Welcome and I am sorry to hear what happened.

Time and time again you will see this happen and alot of people here have similar stories.

Time to buckle down and rebuild.

Use the stealth guide and this forum to work your way back to success.

Good Luck

Hello, I noticed every time I have 10-20 auctions running, I get some sort of problem thrown at me. I don't know what it is with auctions, but it's always problems with eBay. They seem to hate auctions, and will put you on miscible terms if they get u for something. 15-25k a month is very nice. What were you pushing out?
