How do you know?
Local newspaper does not care if you are working with a stealth account,it is a story to report,they may not even know what is a stealth account.
as to asking the pub guy ,when I travel on company account,I will ask the cab driver to scribble his initial and $ on paper ripped off from day old newspaper,and include it in my expense report.
Dont be so feisty,you wil be eating humble pie some day ,or old age sets in and you will lose that feisty spirit like Hackman
I am suggesting ways which have help others sellers in the past,it is up to OP to decide if it is worth considering,it is not a debate to see who is smarter or know it all.
If you dont like my ideas,just block me,you are not EBAY.

'tell eBay its not fair' - yes , cause that works.

'some sellers even threaten' - lol, every seller does that, the keyboard warrior is loved by the eBay call centre peeps they have a good old giggle come lunch time. Also Stealth sellers certainly won't ever go to the newspaper.

'pub guy to sign his name' = LMAO, pub guy means the items have been 'acquired' in a questionable way, why the heck would they sign a piece of paper saying them sold them? lol

'EBay will eventually release your funds' - nope, nadad, definitely not is always the case.

I have been selling on Ebay and others which no longer exist for many many years,where were you?
How do you know they do not work,are you Ebay?
I know a lady who got suspended,she held up a sign outside Ebay headquarter every morning and finally got re admitted.
There was a time seller claimed they cannot fill their orderrs as they were hospitalised,and eBAY demanded to see his hospital records and name of doctor,now they wont bother or rather AI does not bother.
In the early days,people sent cash,money order,personal check to pay Ebay fees !
Sellers can call buyer at the end of the year to request payment for goods they won and actually work! I did once.
If you know so much,how did you get suspended?
Rule number 1,follow Ebay rules, rule number 2,folow rule 1

the pub guy story didn't wash ID and proof of address have, but they still want receipts. In everyone's opinion (except agent's) would providing receipts from a retailer such as amazon(but at a high price than i sold - so i made a loss) or a cowboy receipt from pub guy, i.e typed up with his address phone number etc and maybe a few words like I pub guy sold to stealth guy no returns no refunds sold as seen etc likely work best?

Decided to start selling again, now ebay have changed to holding private sellers money hostage. Sold 6 new items £100-400 in value, total £1100 held hostage in the ebay. Should have went slower i know, didn't expect ebay to start doing paypals tricks. They requested i wait, i did, then request tracking. All tracking added, delivered and most left positive feedback already. Now they have request ID, Proof of Address and receipts. I don't have receipts, bought them off a bloke down the pub. Now i know that ain't going to fly with ebay. When ever i sent made up receipts in the past, (long time ago) that killed the accounts 100% of the time.

Can anyone advise how to proceed and pass this hold? PM if preferred.
