Default ebay removing video game account listings "personal information policy"

Basically, I see so many digital listings like video game accounts boosts etc and some are very successful shops that have been running for a while, some newer. But with the sheer amount of these listings, apparently it isn't allowed? Is there anyway to avoid this detection of them knowing your item is a digital item? Absolutely nothing I can do to avoid them knowing it seems, which means I cannot sell my virtual goods at all here, had a 6 month account that was going amazing get suspended for ignoring the warning like 3 times and don't want to do this on my new account. Do I need to sell some normal physical items to get a trusted seller status, even then I don't feel like I could ever be safe from this thing from happening and frustrating.

Anyone else had experience with personal information policy, receiving warnings and having listings taken down?

Seems that selling game accounts is forbidden on ebay. I saw some guys selling pictures related to the game, and giving acc details "as a gift".

It just blows my mind how many listings stay up steadily, it wouldn't be a challenge at all for them to wipe out any listings that has "pokemon go account" in it, but instead it seems like an automated system doing this detection and surely some way to bypass it. All was fine it seemed until I got a feedback saying "account works thank you!!", so this could've helped flag the system, aside from my listings having account in the title lol I tried to keep everything else low key but maybe I need to list my accounts in a way that the system can't automatically detect...this is such a pain because too many mistakes with it and it's a perma suspend on a perfectly fine eBay account. I really fkin hate this company sometimes lmao

Digital products and specially accounts are really tough to be successful in on eBay frankly.

YOu sell normal items for many months then start selling these things your account will go down soon or later.
