eBay asking to upload ID... account restriction

[yungsc1005]

Hello, I recently got my accounts restricted and they are now asking for my ID and to enter tracking info.

What happens if you don't upload the ID at all? Can I still continue selling items or will I eventually get banned?

Highly likely that the account will get banned or restricted if you don't reply to their inquiry

If they have not taken your listings down yet, you can fix the account.

Go find someone on Telegram who can help you with the ID, enter all tracking numbers, download all order invoices, prepare a bank statement with account matching details (Payouts visible too),
and you just might save it.

Did you dropship on that account?

But if your listings have been taken down, that wraps it up, don't bother appealing.

If you don't upload your ID then they will NEVER payout, so it is best to put all listings out of stock. If it was MC011 then you could still continue to sell and they would payout after 60 - 90 days after suspension.

If I first dropship to a warehouse, and then from that warehouse I ship to my customers on ebay. Can ebay still flag me as a dropshipper?

Warehouse is in the same country/state of your registered eb account?

They dont really flag accounts for drop shipping unless you enter TBA tracking or you are connecting a known drop shipping tool such AutoDS directly to their API. MC011 isnt specifically due to drop shipping , it's due certain performance such as spike in sales or too many INRs for example.

Asking for ID is pretty normal. If they dont ask you at beginning they will probably ask you at some point.

It is not dropshipping,it is retail arbitrage Ebay is trying to curb,retail arbitrage is taking a customer money and then use that money to buy from ANOTHER RETAILER.
Dropshipping is asking your supplier(wholesaler,factory) to ship the item direct to your customer.
Examples of another retailor would be WMT,AMZN,COSTCO,TGT,MACY.KOHL or even another Ebay seller

These are semantics. eBay doesn't flag retail dropshippers unless for the reasons I just listed above. If eBay wanted to ban retail arbitrage , they could have done this overnight like Amazon did but they dont because we make them way too much money. Probably at least 25% of their revenue comes from retail dropshipping. Also not to mention we have literally refreshed this website to look like a normal online marketplace , not the junk yard it used to be before 2015

Strongly agree. Without us, they are gonna be right next to craigslist. And their stock price will plummet IMO. They need us.

Their stock price is already in the dog house at $90 per share

what were you selling?
If you do not give Ebay what it asks for,it would not release your sales proceeds,so what good is selling more items?

if you had bought the stock 1 year ago, you'd have profited - just the timeframe to consider

You will get banned.

Contact your stealth account supplier, he should be able to provide you with the relevant documentation.

NEVER sell items untracked on stealth accounts - in my experience, it almost always leads to a MC011 or future red flags to trigger an account hold.

Always send with tracking.

If retail arbitrage is good for Ebay,why should it ban retail arbitrage?
When an Ebay buyer found out the item actually come from AMZN,he makes a note that before buying on EBay ,he should go to AMZN and see if he can get it for less!
For some reason,AMZN does not like it either it wants us to come direct to AMZN ,not thru an EBay seller !
Define ' a normal online marketplace'-it is a flea market,is that a normal marketplace?
There are some reputable high end sellers on Ebay eg Clark shoes,Ashland watches and jewelry,Bestbuy returns and refurbish,Sears,is it still around,?and some prestigeous antique dealers.
Not that it matters to indivudals like me or you,but retail arbitrage distorts the govt statistics on retail sales which it gathers and reports in the news-
You list say a frying pan on Ebay,an Ebay buyer bot it,then you place the order on AMZN and AMZN ships the frying pan.
AMZN reports it sold a frying pan,Ebay said it sold one as well,well in fact only one is sold and is manufactured or imported , but statistic said 2.
Then some Wall Street analysts and White House would say,our economy is fine,consumers are still buying ,the sky is not falling.

Thats the reason we have the rearview mirror in our car,even Musk would not skip that !@

There is another issue brewing with retail arbitrage,it is the USPS !
Some retail arbitragers are buying USPS tracking number from some service,I dont know how it is done,but it looks like a legit USPS tracking number which tells the buyer his item is now delivered (in his mail box or front door) when in fact AMZN dropped it off in front of his house.
Then the buyer runs to his mail box and found NOTHING ! If he is expecting more than one item(which has been delivered by AMZN at his doorstep_,he may think his carrier has either stolen the item or misplaced it some where and complain to the post office.
His local post office is not going to take this lightly as it could terminate the carrier.
