Exclamation I think I get shadowbanned in ebay

I find out that my listings are not showing up in search, they are still active but im the only one can see them (when I look up my ebay account from another browser I can only see my name and the about page, my listings dosne't show up at all)
when I listed physical item and passed the first susspenssion the item did show up in search but after I tried to list digital item ebay prevent me from doing that (error message), I think that's what trigred ebay system to shadow ban my account
I'm thinking to contact them and ask why I get 0 views and why my listings dosen't show up but before doing that, should I end my digital item listing or should I remove it and if I do that could they found out I removed it and suspend my account indefinitely? I really need your advice guys, thanks

Did you just list the item? Because sometimes it takes 1-2 days to show up

Yes I know that (24h has to pass for item to show up), the problem is my first item (physical) was showing up normally in search after less then a day from listing it but now after more then 4 days it doesn't show up anymore, to add to that all my listings doesn't show up in search and for example if you look up my ebay account you will find my name and the about page only and you wont find my listings but if i sent a link to one of my listings you will see the listing normally, so I think this is shadow ban from ebay system and it was triggered when i tried to post digital item yesterday

I would try to make promoted listings, and check if promoted listings getting impressions, also try call ebay and explain this situation.

OP, your digital item listing may have sparked something in the security side

You may not be suspended but are you above average on your score, if below average you will not get listing placements that are high and be missed out of searches.
