 Should I try to reinstate this account.
My friend gave me his unused account of 6 years old. It only had 5 feedback for buying when I got it.
In the past 3 months, I made about 5k sale on this account and accumulated 30 feedback including 1 negative. Last week, this account was banned. I figured it was about VeRo issue. Quite a few items I sold on this account were brand name.
I called in and wanted to try my luck to revive this issue. This lady told me risk department determined I am a risk and not suitable for ebay. She told me I cannot appeal this issue. But a few days later, when I logged into this account to check message (yes, I still would like to take care of my customers even though this account is banned), I got a message asking me send in documents (photo id + bank statements) for appeal. I do have both documents on hand.
Here is the dilemma. It seems quite wasteful to give up this ebay and paypal ID. I already had 3 100+ fd accounts restricted for selling in the past year. I am a bit short on accounts now. However, I don't really want to let ebay have my data, since they might use against sellers as many people said here.
Just want to hear some opinions from the crowd. Thanks a lot.   |
