Unsure what exactly it is that leads to suspension
 

I got into ebay selling around august last year, started slow, sold perfumes and clothes mainly around the 30-80 pound range, then sold several £400 electronics before stopping. (I work at sea so I come and go)

I recently came back and have been planning to sell some more items - I was just waiting for the £1 fee offer to appear. It has this weekend, so I promptly listed about 20ish items that amount to just under 3k. (my limit is 3.5k)

However, now I'm worried that this might get me a suspension? I really don't know much about ebay at all, but I've read through here a few times and understand that selling high risk items is dangerous. (and just about everything is high risk!?)

I have like 16 feedback all positive, I've previously sold around 3k back around september/october, but that was done very gradually. None of my items are more expensive than around £150 each but is it suspicious that I come out of nowhere months later and slap down 3k worth of branded (new) items? Should I slow it down a bit?

My account is clean and verified with no disputes.

No one knows what exactly leads to a suspension, ebay don't tell you any reason. We can only guess/assume what the reason could be.

If your account is clean and you get a suspension it will only be to check your id details as precaution, with a clean 6 month old account you should have no worries.

Accounts that get suspended are usually linked to previously suspended accounts so if this is your first and you have started slowly there is little reason for it to be a risk to ebay

It could ask to see your vendor invoice and your payment receipt,jus to make sure you have the items.
also if you are at sea,who is going to fill your orders?
