Suspended by eBay
The first significant event of 2005 to mark my digital life comes from eBay. They have suspended me from selling or buying things on eBay. I am not alone--according to Google, more than 3800 people have been "suspended from ebay". Their suspension stems from a pissing contest I have with Paypal, the extortionists aligned with eBay who have refused during the past eight months to disburse $810 of my funds into a real world checking account. Paypal has sentenced me to a revolving door where there are no real people to reconcile my questions. They simply do not give a damn about my situation, refuse to talk to me, and will undoubtedly keep my money under the terms and conditions signed over to them when I set up my seller account. This sucks and will probably mean launching a court case against eBay in Ireland.
The first suspension letter from eBay reads:
We regret to inform you that your eBay account could be suspended.
To resolve this problems please click here and re-enter your account information. If your problems could not be resolved your account will be suspended for a period of 3-4 days, after this period your account will be terminated.
For the User Agreement, Section 9, we may immediately issue a warning, temporarily suspend, indefinitely suspend or terminate your membership and refuse to provide our services to you if we believe that your actions may cause financial loss or legal liability for you, our users or us. We may also take these actions if we are unable to verify or authenticate any information you provide to us.
Due to the suspension of this account, please be advised you are prohibited from using eBay in any way. This includes the registering of a new account. Please note that this suspension does not relieve you of your agreed-upon obligation to pay any fees you may owe to eBay.
Regards,Safeharbor Department eBay, Inc
I like eBay but despise Paypal for the treatment given me. I will probably resurface on eBay in one of my stateside personas, using a credit card from another continent.
In the meantime, eBay isn't even coming close to the $150 a month I spend on Amazon and the $35 a month I spend for music. It's actually a loss for both of us because competition normally serves both sides of the counter. In this regard, I despise working with the Paypal on the other side of the eBay counter.
If you are reading this because you too have been suspended by eBay, please know that I tried the normal circumvention tactics--used a different name, got an anonymous prepaid Mastercard with the made-up name and address, connected my account with a bogus bank account number. I also tried logging on with a different computer, so I had no residual history in my cache or cookies. I don't know what I failed to see, but eBay spotted me coming into the system and they blocked me again.
Greetings,
I have also been one of the 3,800 victims on ebay. I am tired of running the revolving door too.
We all have to find solutions of trying to brake through that circle of building and then get burned down by ebay.
As far as a new alternetive to paypal I found www.greenzap.com/paydaypaydaypayday
Check it out!
Good luck

JB, thank you for posting, I was suspended for selling a pair of designer shoes that I had bought from another ON EBAY. I sent them email after email and only got back stupid canned responses.
If you get banned from Ebay you need to go to:

Ebay does have some serious draconian measures, a pity their outsourced offices offer no help but autoreplies
Posted by: dagaul | September 17, 2005 at 09:11 PM
Seems like I have just been banned. I haven't been sent a notification though. The reason? I have beed trying to stop the sale of a guitar of mine that had been stolen and is now making rounds on ebay. I repeatedly sent emails to ebay about my condition, and even set up a live chat to which I was offered no help. Shortly after sending emails to the new bidders of my guitar, asking them not to bid on stolen property, I am no longer able to log in to my account. What a pisser

I was suspended from ebay for telling some guy off from Nigeria that kept offering me fake money orders for my stuff, I just got sick of it so I told him off... so who do they suspend? Me of course! Right here at Christmas to, and I make my living off of ebay.
I just got back on today thanks to those sweet guys at www.section9.i8.com
They got me a new Master Card, a new checking account and mailing address and I did it all right online.

Ebay suspended 2900 users in UK this week I read in news. I had power seller and 400+ positive feedback and I am no longer a registered user.

I have been suspended twice from eBay and I never did anything wrong. I am sick of it! And now they own paypal, as if they were not a scam already.. Now its the fox watching the hen house.

Help regarding www.section9.i8.com
I sent a guy at section9.i8.com the money, he comfirmed, asked for some of my info, I thought we were off to a good start, I've read about same day turn around, and was very excited. It has been three weeks and no info, and no responces from www.section9.i8.com , or backonfeebay@yahoo.com .
I still have faith but am looking for comfirmation they are not screwing me, just a little (or lot) slow in helping people this month? If things work out with them I'll certainly be praising them on this site and many others.

My brother got his account suspended too and all his were auctions he had spent hours setting up got pulled. He had a few hundred dollars worth of bids on a couple things already too. apparently, ebay mistakenly thought there was something fishy going on with two "andrew filipowski's" out there as members. no good response or reason...just an "oooops...sorry...our bad"

So no sooner than I set up the eBay store to sell ads (which I thought was a cool idea), I get my personal eBay account suspended for being a shill, and eBay takes all the inventory out of the store -- which took me hours to set up and populate.
What happened is an obvious transition issue. I was setting up the store on one hand, and starting to put inventory in it, when a couple of big advertisin sales came through -- ones that had been conducted in the old fashioned "via email" form of sales.
So, I looked in the store management controls and there is no way to retire inventory as being sold but not through eBay. You can end the sale, but it goes into the database as unsold.
So I bought all the weeks of ads that had been purchased by my clients via my eBay account. What I should have done, in retrospect, was to ask my advertisers to log on and do it, but it was Saturday, and I wanted to straighten the store up so I could announce it on Monday.
Also, these ads were all listed at a fixed price, not as an auction, so I wasn't in some way bidding up the price.
It also turns out that eBay used to allow store owners to do what I did, in the past, but it was a abused, and they changed their policies.
The thing that is most annoying is getting a series of emails within a two hour period: the first warning me about "shill" practices, and suggesting I read the policies and refrain from such activities -- all this stuff took place last weekend, note -- and then immediately followed by a suspending of my account, and then the pulling of all my remaining inventory from my store.
And now, since there is basically no way to call eBay on the phone, I have to wait a few days to get a response to the emails I have sent along.

REMEMBER THE SAYING..."IF IT SOUNDS TO GOOD TO BE TRUE...IT NORMALLY IS!" ? WELL I HAVE BEEN SUSPENDED FOR AN UNKNOWN REASON FROM EBAY AND AM CURRENTLY SEARCHING FOR A WAY TO GET BACK ON-FOUND ONE! TELL U ABOUT IT AFTER THIS...I CAME ACROSS THIS FORUM AND WENT ONTO section9.i8.com- THEIR EMAIL ADDRESS USED FOR CONTACTING THEM DOESN'T EXIST ANYMORE, WONDER WHY? I FOUND ANOTHER VERY SIMILAR SERVICE - sell-again.com...TO SIMILAR I MIGHT ADD! THEY TO SAY EXACTLY THE SAME THING AND USE THE SAME FORM OF CONTACT VIA EMAIL-GOT A RESPONSE FROM THEM REQUESTING WESTERN UNION MONEY TRANSFER FOR THE PAYMENT, ALREADY SETTING OFF THE BELLS! FOR PEOPLE SO CLUED UP ABOUT ALL THESE THINGS, WOULDN'T THEY HAVE A MORE SECURE FORM OF PAYMENT? WOULD THINK SO! ALSO THEY STATE NOT TO ASK TO MANY QUESTIONS OR YOU WILL BE BARRED! WEIRD! I DID A GOOGLE SEARCH ON THESE TWO WEBSITES AND VERY LITTLE COMES UP, MOSTLY THE SAME "SATISFIED CUSTOMERS" PRAISING WHAT THEY HAVE DONE FOR THEM! ALL THE DIFFERENT FORUMS/BLOGS HAVE THE SAME TESTIMONIALS FROM THE SAME PEOPLE-STRANGE! BE VERY WEARY SENDING UR MONEY THIS WAY AND RISKING LOSING IT! I HAVE NOT GONE AHEAD DUE TO BEING SCAMMED TO MANY TIMES AND THIS IS TO SIMILAR FOR MY LIKING! BUT IF YOU DO TRY IT LET ME KNOW HOW IT GOES-GENUINE PEOPLE NEED ONLY APPLY THANKS!
IF YOU WANT TO GET BACK ON EBAY USE A PAID FOR EMAIL ADDRESS, LIKE THE ONE FROM YOUR INTERNET PROVIDER, YOU WON'T NEED TO PROVIDE UR CREDIT CARD DETAILS AND EBAY WILL NOT PICK UP IT'S YOU THIS WAY! YOU CAN STILL USE UR GENUINE PERSONAL DETAILS ON THE SIGN UP FROM THOUGH...AS FOR YOUR PAYPAL ACCOUNT, STILL WORKING ON THAT ONE MYSELF! WILL HAVE TO USE NEW BANK ACCOUNT DETAILS! IF ANYONE KNOWS HOW ELSE TO SORT THIS ISSUE OUT PLEASE LET US KNOW!
Posted by: Jay | January 28, 2006 at 11:33 PM
As for the two above posts.. I think neither one of them has a clue. As for Jay, he says he has never heard of them nor did business with them, that they have a bad email address and he was suspended for an "unknown" reason.
#1. They are not out of business and from what it looks like and their email address works just fine.
#2. "unknown" reason, generally means, "I ripped a bunch of folks off and got booted"
#3. Jay and Lucky me are advertising sites that are eBay static. If you look at their source code at both you will find eBay static code embedded within.. I think that means they are somehow affiliated with eBay and their comments need to be ignored.
I am neither for nor against section9.i8.com but from what I have found, after a little searching... they seem to have only good feedback, I would think that is a good thing.
People come here for help, try to put out good information and dont come here to advertise your silly views and bad ideas.
And remember.. dont argue with an idiot, they will only bring you down to their level and beat you with experience...

This piss me off very much.
I would like to know why they stop my auctions ? I hate them .

Posted by: FG | January 30, 2006 at 05:08 AM
About section9.i8 , I am about 100% they are scam artist. I got permanately banned from ebay and wanted to get back on, I found this exact forum and saw the stuff about section9.i8. I went to there site and they have a service that cost $90 and they are suppose to send you a prepaid visa that you can put money on and new bank account numbers. I had to pay through western union which made me think there was a good possibility they might rip me off, but I was going to risk the money for a chance to get back on ebay. Anyway I sent them the money, they actually sent me an email saying they got the money, then I never heard from them again, I have emailed them tons of times. This was about three weeks ago. I was not entirely surprised so I did not get that upset. I was not going to do anything about it, but I just decided I wanted to let other people know, I am in know way connected to ebay or any other site, I absolutly hate ebay and paypal, I just wanted to let people know. Thanks
Posted by: Steve | February 09, 2006 at 02:06 AM
That's right, section9.i8 is a scammer...i paid them a month ago, never recieved or heard anything since!!!
Posted by: Newbie | February 13, 2006 at 06:11 AM
I changed my ip address by disconecting and then reconnecting - but used my same credit card numbers as my suspended account. They closed me down within a day was it because I used the same credit card numbers or is there another way they can detect it's you from Ip numbers or any other numbers?

They suspended me for selling tools below wholesale (as if that's a crime), had a feedback of 598@100%. Got an ebay drone on the phone, he said there's nothing I can do but send in some verification then play the waiting game. Had to make money, so I signed up w/another account. Got suspended in 2 weeks. Did a google search on how to get back on without getting suspended *yet again* and found this ---> http://ebaysuspension.ezguidebooks.com - If you want to get back on and start making money while ebay sorts out your suspended account, that site tells you how to do it without getting caught. I was surprised at all the new security ebay's put into place. It's no wonder I got suspended again after getting my second account. I've been selling off my new one now for 2 months and have a feedback of 115 with nothing from ebay on the radar. If I had waited on them like they wanted me to, I'd still be doing just that...waiting. I'm glad I found that information, and if someone else can make use of it then power to the people. Get enough power and the people will win. I know I'm probably not ever going to get my old account back, but at this point it doesn't really matter. I'm back on selling the same tools below wholesale that I was before, and I'm going to keep doing it because I'm legit, my tools are legit, and I have the original invoices from the manufacturer and personal contact information of the manufacturer's wholesale rep to prove it.

I a also trying to get back onto Ebay....sent all the requested information back to them via fax over a week ago and heard nothing, suprise suprise!! I have just been on www.section9.i8.com and parted with some hardcash as I really do need to get back onto Ebay - its my second income!! Will keep everyone posted as to the outcome but I feel after reading some of the comments that I may have made a dreadful mistake and been scammmed! Fingers crossed :(
Posted by: Julie | February 18, 2006 at 09:32 AM
I have to investigate the URLs suggested on this thread for an upcoming newspaper article and I plan to ask for eBay comments at the same time. I listened to David Jesse from eBay.ie talk to an Irish internet audience a few days ago and he addressed none of these real concerns. That's a shame because under these issues lies some of the reasons for the dismal uptake of eBay among merchants selling online in Ireland.
Posted by: Bernie Goldbach | February 18, 2006 at 12:29 PM
Section9.I8 is a complete con job. I went against my better judgement and western-union'ed the money to them over a month ago. Sent numerous emails with no replies. They're real helpful when you want to send them money, but I warn anyone who is reading this...
SECTION9.I8 WILL ROB YOU BLIND!!!
Don't ever use a method of payment that you can't get your money back on. That's why they use western union, there's nothing you can do to get your money back. It's a total scam.
Posted by: shaniah | February 19, 2006 at 03:03 AM
Avoid www.section9.18.com I dealt with Jeff - he was so quick to answer emails and take my money but heard not a peep since. Guys like him should be strung up by the b**ls!!

I got back on by myself after reading the ebook at http://ebaysuspension.ezguidebooks.com and now I have over 70 feedback at 100% for over a month. Thanks to the OP on this blog for referring me to them!!
Posted by: Kara | March 06, 2006 at 03:38 AM
ok folks, i know what its like when you make nice income from ebay and suddenly ur booted out, and you would do everything possible to get back on. the thing is your at the mercy of ebay, simple.
Really this is the case, try whatever ebook,website etc they are all just exploiting people just like you and sadly me. They can do no more than what u can do uself. if your on ebay's blocked lists, then u will get tracked down time and time again. only unless u use a different identity, then this would be a identity crime, unless you had all ur documents changed such as passport, birth certificate or driving licence etc. Is it worth the hassle? guess not unless ur planning something big and long term. All this change IP address, get new bank A/C new C/C at new address. does not work, you will last at the best a month then ur out again.
My warning to any person that has been banned/suspended do not hand over MONEY to ANY person or "company" Thay can do NOTHING they are CON ARTISTS, Do NOT Fall FOR IT PLEASE.
One alternate solution though not official and not endorsed by anybody. Get a sincere friend of yours who does not use ebay and does not intend to do so in the future to open an account with his/her ID, However please be alerted, Do Not Log in with those credentials from the same ISP and address from which u got booted.
WESTERN UNION is the first indication of a scam.
Posted by: delboy | March 11, 2006 at 08:59 PM
delboy,
I'm sorry to hear of your bad experiences. It sounds like you've been taken advantage of quite a few times by several different people. But don't worry, you're not alone. It took me a few tries to find the right information too.
It is sad that there are so many companies ripping people off, especially those that accept western union as their form of payment. Look further up this board and you'll see section9.i8.com as a prime example. Total scam artists who are now doing it all over again using the website easycc.5u.com.
But that doesn't mean you can't get back on ebay at all, and that the information to do so doesn't exist. And it certainly doesn't mean that you should use someone else's identity, that is classified as assuming someone else's identity, which is a crime. Fictitious aliases when not created for the purpose of illegal activity is not illegal.
I too was suspended from ebay, and I purchased 4 ebooks before finding the one that actually works. I found a link on another board referencing http://ebaysuspension.ezguidebooks.com. It tells you exactly what you need to do to get back on ebay without changing one single piece of your personal information. I got back to selling like normal and have had absolutely no problems for over 3 months. If you're only lasting a month, you're definitely doing something wrong. If you go there, get that book and do exactly what it says, you'll get back to selling for good. It's the only source I've found that keeps their information updated (for free too).

Hello - I am now am Ebay rejected seller for selling a miniature childs cap gun. They have suspended me. I have well over 6000 feedbacks with 99.9% positive.
Can someone tell me why with the many Ebay suspended members out here, why can we not get together and move to another web auction site. I have at the very least 400 regular customers who will continue to buy from me. It would seem if we get together, we could make or break a site.
If we all joined one major aucion web site and email our customers, just think what we could do.
Ebay has suspended me, but there is life after Ebay. With the numerous law suits against Ebay growing every day and Ebay's poor customer service, who needs them.
Let's ban together and make a small auction site large with us joining.

Lets see: 3,000 positive feedback + from 3.000 people and 4,200 positives with 100% feedback with NO negatives and suspended. Time to go to Amazon.com. Account was compromised with the theft of my password and the perps loaded my Ebay guides and voted with thousands of votes. Also, hacked my website. Unbeleiveable.

I need help! I first started on ebay over two years ago. I was selling doll furniture and exercise equipment. I got my items from a supplier. And pay this company to drop ship for me. I was suspended from paypal first. I talked to a rep at paypal and they said that I had done NOTHING wrong but they just didn't want to take the chance since I drop ship. Ok fine NO PAYPAL then about 1 month later my ebay account was suspended got an email stating that it was because my paypal account was suspended. Called paypal they said that should not have happened and they would fix it and talk to ebay or email them and let them know that it shouldn't have suspended my ebay account. Got email from ebay stating that they would reinstate my account a few weeks later I re email them and got the same bull crap email. STILL WAITING TWO YEARS LATER!!
So I asked my dad if I could use his info and he said fine gave me all of it (he lived in NY, so it was not the same address info) and that lasted for a few months and then got canceled.
This pass Christmas needed extra cash so my mother let me use her info and we did it together. only 1 month and it was canceled!!! Right before Christmas killing my income. Which was annoying about this was that my mom was actually using the account it was hers!!
And like all of you have NEVER gotten anything but automatited responses with the same stuff they emailed before I even emailed them with my questions. Not to mention the wonderful emails stating that although my emails will be read they will not necessarily be responding back to them.
Unfortunately I came to the knowledge about ISP and Paid for emails and all that good stuff after all this, TOO LATE.
So I tried one more time with my own info again since it had been almost 2 years with my own info. I used my local library instead of my computer (because I some how think they can trace that too) And use my brothers mailing address had a new Checking account with a new debit card everything was all new info never used before on ebay accept of course my name.
And that didn't even last a week!
I have no idea what is going on I literally hate ebay because I really need the money. I had been laid off from my job and recently moved across the country to go to school. I have fallen behind in my credit card payments, in my rent, and have no idea how I am paying tuition this quarter (which already started so if I don't go within the next few days I CANT and I wont be able to go to the fourth quarter till next year!!)
I am saying all this to ask IS THERE ANYONE OUT THERE THAT HAS FOUND SOMETHING THAT REALLY WORKS?
WHAT ABOUT http://ebaysuspension.ezguidebooks.com
I am not exaggerating when I say I can not even afford the $29.95 right now. And I need to know its not info like by a new computer, move, get a new phone number and checking account and credit card and your good to go. Cause I can not buy a new computer, or move at this point!!
EVEN MORE IMPORTANT, I WOULD LIKE TO KNOW IF THERE IS ANYONE OUT THERE WHO HAS FOUND ANYTHING THAT HAS WORKED (longer than a 2 months)
or http://ebaysuspension.ezguidebooks.com that can send me the information out of the goodness of your heart. I will even pay you after I get back on ebay and make some money!! I am not kidding when I say I need the income from ebay so desperately right now.
If anyone can help in anyway please email me wecandoit23@hotmail.com or post I will try to check back ASAP
!!!!HELP!!!!
THANK YOU SO MUCH

reinstated by ebay. Well the good news is that I was reinstated with ebay and am currently working with several agencies in regards to the perps that hacked my email and my website.
I contacted ebay and spoke to several individuals via email. ebay will help those that negative events happen to amd I am proof of that.
I am just glad that the perps didn't trying buying items and leaving negative comments. I am going to continue to write ebay Guides for all of the loyal Star Wars fans and collectors out there.

I was approached by a friend about loaning him my personal information to set up another ebay account afte he had been suspended. Not knowing what could happen turned over all of my info, credit card info, checkig account, pay pal, address everything. 2 days later they suspeneded my friends newly created account and my personal account. Their response, was that I was associated with an account that had recently been suspended for conduction suspicious operations. I regret loaning out my info, now I am banned forever and all of my personal auctions were lost.
I was thinking of buying a new PC, gettng a new internet provider and a diff. credit and bank accounts. Do you think that would work?

I have read many posts on many different forums and blogs about eBay. I have also been through the "unfair" suspensions with canned responses from customer service.
The simple truth is that you can't pay someone (especially by WU) to get you back on magically. I'm sure there are ways to get back onto eBay, but isn't this what everyone is screaming that they didn't do (illegal.)
Steve posted earlier that everyone should get together and goto a new auction site. I own a hosting company and will be releasing an auction site on Monday. I have worked with several sites such as ebaysucks.com to get feedback on the right way to do things and have come up with a pretty good solution.
We have also gained a few eBay Power Sellers to join us. Is it totally free? No. We have to charge something, somewhere. I'll give you the run down on our pricing.
Basically, you don't have to have a credit card to bid or sell (only if you want to be verified) and we don't charge you to list the item(s). If they don't sell, you don't pay anything, and it's free to relist.
We only charge 2% of the final sale. We do a few things different that eBay:
1) We don't require bank account information
2) We don't require credit card information
3) We ACTUALLY investigate fraud instead of
just suspending users
4) We aren't running a script to compare you
other users and try and predit your
threat level (that's just crazy)
I'm not going to spam the site with my URL, I just want feedback from you guys (any suggestions or comments). If you want more information about the new site, just click my name below for my email address. We officially launch on Monday.

I was a good power seller on Ebay . I had just hit my 500 feedbacks. none never negative. So after deciding to take a vacation. I come back 2 days later on last Monday April 17th 2006. An email stating that Ebay has suspended my account? I thought it was fake. So immediately I logged into my Ebay Account. Boom! Definetely Suspended!. Wow. They asked me to fax info and so on and so forth. I did so. They emailed me back saying that they are sorry but they cannot reinstate me. I asked for the reason for my suspension. And they give me the email to trust and Safety. I email them. Im tired of Automated Emails with a total different answer to my questions. Answers that dont even relate with what I asked for. Ebay is too lazy to type so they copy and paste thier policys. Ebay live is helpless. I wish GOOGLE would oppen up thier auctions website and SQUASH Ebay. Dont get me wrong Ebay is the best. But they dont know what they are doing when it comes to suspending users. Its like lets say your running a bussiness downtown. Suddenly cops come and raid your business and shut you down.... but for no explanation what so ever. That is what Ebay is doing. Some one show put a major lawsuit against them, not me thought Im not wasting a penny of my money on them. Any one got a alternative auction website that actually has people bidding like on ebay? email me atomiczx2@yahoo.com

I had a listing supposedly shut down but it wasn't. Ebay told me to correct the listing and even told me why they ended it. Then I had to take a quiz of sorts that I missed a few questions on that I still feel I am right on some of the questions. Then they said I was suspended but didn't say for how long. My listings and account are still functional. I am wondering if they are waiting to drop a bomb on me. I had a listing yanked months ago but on this occasion I was actually told why. I get mysterious notices that certain people I bought from are no longer registered users but it appears and disappears randomly. I asked the seller about it and they don't know what I am talking about. The people who run Ebay sit around all day assaulting certain people on their sh#t list to appease the VeRO idiots. Ebay are spineless dweebs and cowards that just want to mess with people but they hurt the sellers and don't realize how much they hurt the regular buyers of certain sellers that rely on products from certain people. Ebay thinks they can allow the big sellers to get by with everything and do nothing but punish a few smaller sellers to make the VeRO sissies happy. It is sad so much in America practices this type of cowardly business ethics widespread. If you want to know why everyone goes overseas with American jobs just deal with folks like Ebay and you will see why people get tired of people trying to please itellectual properties. Microsoft did that and screwed themselves on minidisc when Apple was appeasing the real consumer and delivered a product that could be used... The Ipod. What happened to free speach? You can't describe, compare, mention, expose what parts are really in a product without being attacked. Goochy does not make watch movements. I cannot say that on Ebay. That is because Ebay protects copyrights but ignores the truth. Sellers cannot honestly describe a product without getting a listing yanked. The scenarios go on and on with much to much to tell of. Ebay does single out people but won't admit it. Big sellers have their way with you just like any business in America. The tax base people get endlessly screwed.

My new account got suspended for reason
"Abusing eBay" of the eBay User Agreement states. And they said I owe them $3.63... Is it legal for ebay when they pull off all the user's item and still collect the gallery's fee from user?

Mother of two expresses concern that she came across the listing while searching ebay with young child. eBay suspended HER!
Meanwhile the pathetic degenerates auction and equally pathetic condom remained online until it was sold.
Go figure.

I really like the ebook from warly above.
But I can not afford $30.
anyone has the ebook?
would you please upload it and leave a download link here.
Many thanks to you and warly.

I would also like to read that $30 ebook, however I can't gather myself to drop 30 on it, maybe we could pool the money and then whoever buys it could send it to the others. Of course this is going to take some trust but if we get enough people it might only have to be $2-3 each. If interested drop me an email at italianbeef99@hotmail.com. I have also been suspended from ebay, and looking for a way back on.
Posted by: david antonelli | May 24, 2006 at 08:26 PM
I was suspended because eBay did not get my monthly payment from my credit card. I checked my credit card bill, the payment is there, no problem! Yes, My card is fine, my payment is fine, it is only ebay's computer mistakenly marked in my account - not paid. So all my listings gone. And eBay simply reply me with a "Sorry".
It is totally unacceptable to such an International listing company. They suspended my account without alert or warning. Why don't they set up a better system in handle account suspension. The case can be avoided simply if they set up a team to inspect and confirm every account suspension cases, it seemed that eBay is letting their stupid computer to run it freely without control.
I am very upset with eBay, it seemed that they are treating me as a fool who to pay them money monthly. I definely will quit my business from them.

Another ebay member signed up an account with my information and did
stuff to get the account suspended. Then I was suspended after they
reported that I was same person. Ebay says suspension is final and
refuses to do anything about it. I was on ebay for over 4 years with
100% feedback rating. Ebay sucks. This can happen to anyone.

I'm a partner in a huge ebay drop off store and we are not allowed to sell certain things on ebay. So I wanted to sell the item thru my personal account. Come to find out a competitor turn me in and had my personal account shut down. The funny thing is I just returned from ebay live and actually have Meg card and I have been keep all of the correspondence with Safe Harbour. As soon as this thing is wrapped up I will forward it all to her and she will then have to defend why there is such a differnce between the way Corporate accounts are handled and the average eBayer is shut down. I have yet to disclose to the trust and safety asswipes that I am a partner in a very large eBay drop off Store Franchise. Can not wait to drop that bomb on our eBay rep. I'll keep everyone informed. Happy 4th.

I have been suspended a few times off of eBay. I am still now sure how they track you down. I was suspended originally for reasons unknown, and then afterwards I guess because I was the same person. Does anybody know exactly how they track down people who have been suspended? Is it IP address, bank info?
Posted by: zef | July 09, 2006 at 11:11 PM
Ebay Safe harbour is ebay police and most Bureaucratic deparment in Ebay. The act like they are more superior than other human being. They are bunch people hide bebine email system and to cower to pick up the phone and talk to people in live. I am 1 of the victim got suspend from Ebay and they suspect me associate with other suspended account which I have no idea off. Can we all gather up and start classic lawsue against ebay, or we are too powerless to again big giant. Ebay user agreement protected them being sue, it that user agreement a legal contract and govern by state or federate law. if any lawer or anyone want to do classic lawsuit count me in.

Posted by: Michaela | July 21, 2006 at 12:05 AM
So if the 'bashar.ca' is a waste of time..what really is going to work?
Posted by: mark | July 21, 2006 at 01:11 AM
hi there people , some good advice here for you if you want to get back on ebay.
i have had about 10 accounts canned for selling audio books so VERO was a big problem , after numerous atempts to sign up again i would get from between the 1 day and 1 month period of my account and be suspended for assotiation with suspended account.
so after 2 months of research i have found the perfect way to get a new membership and account without the chance of getting linked to your original account.
if you follow these steps exactly then you WILL be back on ebay permenently. i have been back on now for 4 months , still get the warnings etc due to the things i sell but its like they dont know who i am at all now!!!
steps to follow EXACTLY are :-
1. first things first go to www.entropay.com , this is a genuine recognized virtual prepaid credit card that you only have to pay £10 to load up and gain a annonymus credit card , with this account you can have as many credit card numbers as you wish , you can use them to register an ebay and paypal account , you can put a totally different name and address for verification and you will pass everytime. you can even link the virtual credit card to your paypal account so if you have money on in your paypal you can spend it through your credit card i.e online shop and it will come out of your paypal account!! a little loophole of paypals!!!! do not use any other sites for these cards as they try to charge you fees etc but entropay charge you nothing apart from your 10 top up fee which you can withdraw back to your bank when your finished if you wish.
2. next thing to do is change your isp , i changed from aol to wannadoo as ebay traces you through a number of different ways and isp and ip are among them. did you kn ow that ebay if your on aol can get your actual account number from your ip within 2 seconds and contact aol to get your address within minutes!! so if they wanted to know who you are for fraud reasons then you dont stand a chance on your basic setup!if you dont want to change isp then follow the instructions below instead but i find this is the best way but i do use another account set up at work with the same isp but doing the steps below and that works fine to so the choice is yours.
3. if you didnt want to change your isp then you will need to do these steps
click start on your pc ( bottom left ) and click run
type :- cmd and hit enter
type ipconfig and hit enter
type ipconfig/release and hit enter
then turn off your router/modem and pc and leave them over night but if you wish a minimum of 1 hour.
restart your pc and turn your router/modem back on
go into start/run and type :- ipconfig/renew
this should give you a totally new ip so ebay wont be able to trace you that way.
4. next thing to do is download firefox browser and go into options and change settings so that it deletes cookies everytime you close the window as this is another way ebay traces you.
5. next right click on your internet explorer icon and go to properties or you can find the settings in internet connections in control panel, then delete all files and cookies from the options there and clear history aswell.
6. (optional ) this is a great way to stop ebay and paypal getting your new ip once you`ve done these steps , download this software http://www.hide-my-ip.com/
this makes you totally annonymus on the net concealing your ip and giving off a different one half way accross the world so you are untraceable. you can download it from either www.demonoid.com or www.mininova.org or if you have something like emule etc.
good thing to use this as your a ghost to ebay with this stuff!! please note if your on aol you must close the aol software when using and use ie or firefox as it will give your real ip out if its open!!!
with all this done EXACTLY you shall be up and running asap.
hope this helps you all and remember ebay has limited technical experience and resources and there will always be ways to beat there system , this is just one of them but so far nothing of mine has been touched since i`ve done it so its up to you if you do it or not.
good luck

King of Ebay,
Man you are a genius.But to be honest with you,I don't know antyhing about computer .i will follow this step by step..I just have to try this one.Thanks so much for the information.I am very desperate and will try everything.
bashar.ca is a joke .I can only send money thorugh western union,kind fishy and risky..I tried to sell somewhere but i have to admit there is nothing like ebay..I made good money with ebay..thanks so much i will try it now.

Posted by: 2shane | July 25, 2006 at 09:50 PM
I had several accounts that ran for months and months before being linked to my previously suspended account. Beleive it or not, all had the same registration details as the suspended one and real credit cards on file for payment. I hid nothing from them and it took them ages to link the accounts with the suspended one.
Back up and running again but new accounts are all with fake details. Good advice from the king of ebay...just like to add that datacalls.co.uk will provide anyone with a unique phone number that can be automatically directed to your real voicemail, mobile, or land line..and it's totally free. This way you can be verified by ebay if they do decide to call and check as they accept a voicemail number as verification. Also, it helps if someone pulls your details and decides to call you. Your real phone number is NEVER given away.
Use an address that is verifiable but not your own. If the street goes to 79 then you live at number 93..if you see what I mean.
Good idea to change your IP as the king says but not so sure about the ghostsurfing when logging on. Log ons from numerous ips may draw unwanted attention..maybe. If anyone knows for sure please post here.
Also, once your IP has changed NEVER log in to a suspended account OR open or answer an e mail to a suspended account. EVER.
Thanks to everyone for their advice..and good luck.

Posted by: mr t | July 27, 2006 at 06:04 PM
If you have been suspended by ebay and would like to get back on so that you can sell within 24 hours, contact me. I have been selling on ebay for many years, and I wish someone would have done this for me a long time ago, so I am offering my services to you. I will set you up with a brand new ebay account completely verified under a different name and whatever country you would like (you can provide info, or I will create), and ready to sell on for $70.00. This account will be brand new, I am not a rip off who will steal another persons account with points and resell it. The points are your responsibility. Account will be set up via an anonymous ip with no link to your suspended account. I can also set you up with a new paypal account and bank account, contact me for details.
I accept egold only. ebysux@hotmail.com
Posted by: ebysux | July 28, 2006 at 07:45 PM
I have also had the unfortunate "suspension" several times for being linked to a previously suspended account.
A couple of things I want to add - it is not always that Ebay "tracks" you down...Competitors can be nasty - I KNOW THIS FOR A FACT - they will watch for you to come back, and they WILL report you.
When you do get back up and selling - CHANGE YOUR PICTURES - I made the mistake of using identifiable pictures (due to my backgrounds) and realize know that a competitor has been reporting me. He was actually e-mailing me and asking me questions about my items (under a different name) - however, when I did some back tracing, I realized it was this creep.
So BE SURE to change your pictures - use a different background - take the pictures in your garage - make it look like a warehouse pic - but do it in a way so that competitors or some of these Ebayer's that want to act like police don't match up your auction photos.

I was suspended a week ago. Had a problem with my supplier, made several refunds to my customers, then ebay suspended me for supposedly breaking their rules? How is that breaking rules when you have problems and you actually REFUND your customers? Ebay was my income and now I have none. Dont know what to do.
Posted by: Sandra | July 29, 2006 at 09:24 PM
Ebay was my entire income and they ripped it away. Bastards. Out of desperation I tried out ebysux, and he already gave me my account info! Im back on! THANK YOU SO MUCH! Awesome response time. Definately worth it. I also ordered paypal and atm card, have paypal set up already through him and am waiting to receive my atm card. Will keep everyone posted when I receive it, and how it works. Good luck to all you out there, hope you can manage to find your way back on to give ebay the preverbial finger.
Posted by: Sandra | July 30, 2006 at 09:19 PM
Guys, caution anytime someone asks you for a western union, it is a scam!!!!! These are mostly arabs, and other foreigners trying to take advantage of people. tHE other new scams to watch for are the ones where on ebay they buy something then send you a money order and ask you to western union the commission because theyre financiers for someone else. Beware of the telephone scam also, where they tell you you have won a 50.00 gift card or some prize and its only 1.00 on your credit card. Then they say give me the numbers on the card except the last 4. Well all they have is the last 4 because that shows up on any online purchases you've placed. Be very wise!!!!
Posted by: kristy | July 31, 2006 at 02:28 AM
Wouldnt recommend sending western union to anyone unless you know who they are.

I've been having some great luck with the guy at ebysux! I see someone already bought the Ebay site from him and is having no problems with it...I've been asking this guy tons of questions and he's really helpful..I'll probably do it..have to get back on to sell!! Have listed some of my things on Yahoo Auction...I also got suspended..opened a new account and used the same pictures as another account I have...STUPID!! Now I'm suspended and waiting to hear from those jerks on getting my account back. Anyway...things not going so well on Yahoo Auctions..Very slow.

You know something, I bought the 29.95 information "ebaysuspension" ebook.. it is all really simple, I have been back on ebay for about 4 months now with no problems, it all has to do with how you want to handle your self, carefully... the ebook is totally worth the money, it doesn't just refer you to other sites, it has lots of resources on where to get the things you need to set up your account, I spent under 100.00 for everything, including the ebook.. I got myself an oddball name, a rental box at UPS or some other "mom & pop" place, a MASTERCARD giftcard and so be it.. it was really easy ! How to switch I.p. address and getting a good email address info is included, it was GREAT and now I am back on eBay! whooohoo!

Changing IPs with either TOR or Hide My IP doesn't work. I just got bumped because my IP was changing whenever I logged on, and from that it was decided that I was a "third party" that was hacking into the account. All of the listings were cancelled (bids were up to a total of 300 dollars). Paypal also got in on the action and called twice (after limiting my account) because I was using a variety of IPs. If you change your IP, make sure to use the same one after that or it will DEFINITELY cause big problems.

Posted by: Mark | August 05, 2006 at 11:50 AM
Special offer: for the next 10 people that order, I am offering kits for 159.99 each. Kits are normally 189.00. If you need express shipping, there is an additional fee. You will have your new accounts within 24 hours, and atm card will be mailed to you.
This is only for the next 10 people, has been very successful, so will not last long.

King of Ebay - I read your suggestion, which is really good. I have one question, here in the States, Ebay asked you to input your checking acct number. Is there a trick for this>? Thanks
Posted by: CARTRANCE | August 07, 2006 at 11:30 PM
I have the same question too. after i get a giftcard and delete cookies and all that how do I get on with checking account info. If there is a site where i can buy one that would be cool.
Posted by: Maggie | August 08, 2006 at 09:13 PM
when ebay kick me off, i call my bank and tell them i have lost my card, they will then send me a new card out.
once the new card arrives i sign up to sell on ebay, i do this my entering my details as normal,
once you get to the bit where they ask for your account number you have to just make one up,
i just enter 8 random numbers and bobs ya uncle!
with the new card, it has a new number, the big long number across the middle, with this changed it lets you sell on ebay again :-).
hope this helps
Posted by: BAZ | August 09, 2006 at 06:32 PM
that doesnt make any sense. you get a new card only to enter random numbers? whats the point?
Posted by: er | August 09, 2006 at 08:13 PM
when ebay ban me they stop me using my debit card again, BUT when i order a new card it comes with a new number (the long number) and because this is different i am able to get bk on ebay. but when it asks you to enter your account number i tried, and it said i couldnt use that number, so what i done was just enter 8 random numbers and it worked a treat!!
GET ME NOW??
Posted by: baz | August 10, 2006 at 02:16 PM
interesting. But you still put down the same cardholder address as before? I know you have a new card no., but isnt the address going to be the same as before? Which is what gets you linked to the suspended account ?
Thanks.
Posted by: ah | August 10, 2006 at 03:02 PM
yeah same address, but i aint been kicked off yet and have been on for over 3 months now.
Posted by: baz | August 10, 2006 at 03:31 PM
You cant do that. you'll be suspended in no time. I offer fully verified ebay, paypal, and US checking account with attached atm card for paypal withdrawal. Anyone serious about getting back on, talk to me. If you use your name, etc. you will be kicked off again in no time. Not safe. :)
Posted by: ebysux | August 11, 2006 at 03:38 PM

how much is it just for a US checking account with attached atm card? thanks

Contact me directly. Cheers.
Posted by: ebysux | August 12, 2006 at 07:00 PM
i really dont understand - why pay $30 or more to get a new account when you can just appeal and give you passport ect to ebay (FOR FREE) and get your old account back - i understand that you may not be able to sell forbidden items incase of further punishment (permently banning) but thats just the same with the new paid for account becuase you will be permently banned if you get caught using it so you cant do anything dodgy with it. in fact you have to be more careful and secretive with the paid for fake account than your old appealed one and you have to pay for it.
Posted by: Alex | August 17, 2006 at 03:17 AM
Because you cant do that. Once they suspend you, thats it. Once in awhile, they will reinstate accounts, but if you are hoping for that, you will be waiting a VERY long time.
Posted by: ebysux | August 18, 2006 at 12:23 AM
i am suspened - if i move address, get a new credit card with the new address and put in my middle name and surname on ebay can ebay still track me down?
Posted by: patel | August 18, 2006 at 01:10 AM
I;m sure they could. I ordered from ebysux after seeing his post. Works great! I received my atm card within 8 business days. Already selling again!

Just curious, ono, what'd you use in place of Entropay?
Posted by: DKR | August 22, 2006 at 01:56 AM
Easy to make accusations when you dont know the facts. Keep getting kicked off. We are NOT A SCAM. We have helped many people get back on. Good luck to you all!

We? So theres more than one of you? Or is this some trick to make it look like your more than one person, to try and make you look more professional perhaps?

Posted by: alex | August 26, 2006 at 02:50 PM
hi, I got suspended from ebay like in july of 2006. In June i sold an Item that the buyer recieved and now paypal called me and told me that I have a dispute from that buyer and must pay $200. The account that I was using is was closed for about 2 months. My question is do i have to pay the buyer b/c i did not give false advertising and paypal chooses to call me out of the blue and since my account is closed can the really do anything? The person that I talked to said that they can escalate it furthur. What should I do?
Posted by: maggie | August 27, 2006 at 06:49 PM
PayPal is trying to get the money from you before they absorb the chargeback themselves. If the buyer isn't happy, the matter could escalate to the credit card itself. You could get charged $200 by the credit card agency. One way to avoid that is to cancel the credit card and pay the balance quickly.
Posted by: Bernie Goldbach | August 27, 2006 at 07:48 PM
I have several Ebay and Paypal accounts and have been using Ebay for about 6 years. This year they have decided to get greedy i feel as their rules are getting silly.
Demanding proof by drivers license and wanting my suppliers details etc which i do not have as i buy stuff from loot, or from ebay when i buy in bulk etc so i have had 2 of my paypal accounts suspended.
anyway cut a long story short....... i have just sold hundreds of items on ebay all items £5 to £200 approx and have received the money to my paypal account.
thing is, i dont have the items to send to my buyers £48000 in total is what i have transfered into my bank in almost 2 weeks.
most of the money has cleared and i have been taking the money out of my bank.
there are a few disputes open already and i guess there will be plenty more to come, what i want to know is what will happen as i wont be able to pay the buyers back even if i wanted to as i have already spent £3000 and i have put £18000 in a freinds bank account.
who's money is it that i have? is it the buyers or is the money i have paypals?
will i end up in court over this?
the reason im not sure is because most of the payments i have received is for £5 - £7 so i cant see how i will get in any trouble.
anyone else done this before?
Posted by: roosters | August 30, 2006 at 11:02 PM
wish i could get £48,000 sent to my paypal lmao. fancy sharing :-P you know you wanna lol.
Posted by: Baz | August 31, 2006 at 02:06 PM
roosters you are up shit creak!
Posted by: dtwazere | September 03, 2006 at 07:54 PM
Thanks baz but why am i up shit creek? Is not much good to me just saying im up shit creek if you dont tell me why exactly?
Also im about to start bankruptcy as my debts are well over £80,000 with 5 loans and 18 credit cards.
I dont think im up shit creek at all but would like to know what i am going to expect!
Whats the worst they can do? Prison for a year at very very worst, fucking woopeeey!
I reckon nothing will happen, amybe a few letters etc.
Anyone want to tell me different?
Posted by: roosters | September 04, 2006 at 09:28 PM
ok so ive change my ip address, new bank new credit card, new email new everything...
i get an email from ebay the same day saying my account is closed and they threw a 'section 8' at as a reason why. Im ***** off at ebay for doing this. may ebay burn in hell.

Posted by: krissy | September 06, 2006 at 07:12 PM
If you want to get back on eBay, then the main thing you must do is obtain a new card number, a new IP, and everything else can be forged.
Getting a different IP is ridiculously easy; all you need to do is connect to a foreign proxy. Go to a site like aliveproxy.com, choose a proxy and enter it into your IE browser, which can be accessed through Tools>Internet Options>Connections>Lan Settings. Make sure 'Automatically detect settings' and 'Use a proxy server for your Lan' are the only ones checked. Enter the address and port you obtained from aliveproxy.com in the field below that, and you can then use it to access eBay anonymously. Note that you MUST keep the same IP as a change in IP will get eBay suspicious = suspension.
Now, the second step involves a new credit card. I have offered a randomly generated credit card number service to many satisfied customers. I've already told you how to change your IP, now all you need do is obtain working Credit Card info. I only charge $49 for a unique credit card number (Visa, MasterCard or Discover) AND a personalised address to use with the card. I will also tell you the bank associated with your card, although this is only for use in verification purposes (like eBay); and may not be accessed in real life (of course not).
I have offered this service for a much higher price before, and I recommend this method as an easy and hassle free way to get back on eBay. If you want this service delivered ASAP, then don't delay, make your payments to Stryke International and receive your package now. We only accept e-gold (for security reasons). Access our secure page at http://3560656.e-gold.com/
E-gold means security and privacy for me and you, so it will be the only option of payment available. Just visit the website at e-gold.com and sign up within minutes. All questions and transaction enquiries are welcome to:

I got suspended without warning and with NO explanation why. As instructed, I faxed eBay copies of my drivers license, utility bill, bank statement, invoices, etc. (yes, the REAL eBay--not a phishing scam!). Today they announced that they had decided I would remain suspended--AND they would refuse to give me details about why.
They also said additional efforts to appeal would be read but not responded to. I had 677/99.8% feedback and was selling legitimate, non-controversial items with no claims or cases against me and up-to-date fee payments.
So eBay bans me--and won't even tell me why!
Posted by: Matthew Atkinson | September 08, 2006 at 02:55 AM
Hi Matthew Atkinson, when u say non-controversial items, i dont think you realise what non-controversial items actualy are.
From what i can work out, if you sell an item that is made by a company then you are selling controversial items which means to sell non-controversial items as you have stated then the items you must have been selling can only be made by yourself from products you have invented of are not anything to do with any other company.
which means if you sell just about anything on Ebay then you will most likely run into problems unless it was a lump of mud from your back garden. Oh and if you do list a lump of mud from your back garden please dont mention the town or city the mud has come from otherwise the town/city may have vero rights in place to take your auction off and suspend you.
and if you think im joking then think again! I got banned for listing a lump of mud from my back garden as i listed it as "quality lump of luton mud, no reserve" but i didnt know that this was in breach of Ebays rules as i had listed a place that had restricted the use of its name.
I also have had stuff pulled before such as a baby walker, reason it was pulled is because the item had been recalled by the manu but no idea how i was supossed to know that?
also had a mobile phone pulled because the listing breached the intellectual property rights of ownership or something because it was made by Nokia?
Fuck knows?
Who cares anyway, it is just about illegal to have money these days anyway. be poor and stay that way is what i say!
Ebay are not the only ones make life in the uk shit! I went to put £2000 in my bank the other day to pay my monthly bills (approx £2300) and you would not believe the hassle i got. asking me where the money has come from, had to fill out declarations and everything.
My advice to anyone wanting to make money from anything is, DONT DO IT! If you have been born poor, then you deserve to stay poor for the rest of your life! So come on and join me in the race to be the poorest in the uk! THINK IM WINNING THOUGH! unless u can beat £92,000 of debt and no income thanks to Egay

I dont honestly know what you lot are moaning about!
All these comments about Ebay but the only reason you lot get banned is because you have no business acumen!
Check my ebay shop out, my username is brandsuk and i sell Nike, Prada etc and never had a problem on Ebay because i know how to treat people with respect!
I love Ebay and i make about £500 each day in profit!
all my items are proper genuine as well, no moody stuff like!
go get a job if you cant handle Ebay is what i say!

There are so many reason why ebay closes peoples account...I guess you just have to be lucky...But opening new accounts and getting linked to it, is a matter of luck if you get caught or not..
I have a friend who has opened about 4 or 5 different account throughout the past 2 yrs, she had played around with the her name and address and the only reason she has been shut down is because she sells trademark stuff....She never changed ip address...She just got warnings from the stuff she sells and then she has gotten shut down...Then they linked her to another accounts...
But before ebay shuts her down its been months that she was selling....I think ebay randomly just picks on the wrong people and shuts them down....
Now, after using all her resources with her name and address she decided to use a prepaid card...
So she's been selling for about a month now and the only thing she did was just use a prepaid card with a different name and address on the card...No changes on her ip address or anything else, just the prepaid card...So, it just getting lucky and ebay not realizing its you, my guess...

Hi, i've been indefinately suspended from ebay.....do you think i will ever get the suspension lifted??? If not any ideas of what i can do..
Thanks so much.

There is no need to pay $49.95 to get back on ebay, simply check out http://ebayrevive.com to find out how

Fair enough, waste £8 ($16) on the ebook, then come to us. Just take a look at their webpage. I'm not convinced.
On the other hand, for $50 I wont teach you 'step by step instructions', I'll do the whole process for you myself.

Yeah so after weeding through all the scammers lame-o advertisements, There's actually a few tidbits of decent information here. I'm pretty much sold on the ebaysuspension ezguide book. wth is a $30 investment? I was making about $10-$15K (USD) a month selling on eBay, I quit my job! I turned ebay into a fulltime icnome, bought a nice coin collection, a loaded out xbox 360, a 42" plasma, and a 66 chevelle. Now mortgage is due and income is gone. I'm glad I was smart enough to put a little back in the safe for rainy days. Because feebay has unleashed a category 6 hurricane on me. No bother, I'm off to switch ip's clear cookies, open a new bank account, and open an ebay business account, under my business name with a fresh clean slate. I'll be back up to powerseller status in no time. and gold powersellers get *phone support* actual SUPPORT! like they get shite done! So I'm off to buy me a copy of the ebook, and I'll be glad to sell it to anyone for $15 (half the price) just email me at:

I have been suspended from ebay(scum) for a couple of months now. I have been with ebay(ass-wipes) for 7 years as a buyer only, with excellent feedback (over 450 credit stars). Received strikes against me from a couple of sellers for items of less than 3 GBP ($5)! One I could not pay because they were in another country and would not take UK cheque or Paypal. Another, the cheque arrived a little late so they re-listed the item and complained about me. Remember, these were items of less than $5!!!!
Got the usual runaround that everyone seems to have got from ebay(cocksuckers) 'customer service'. Meanwhile, as ebay (fuck-wits) kept replying to my emails with computer generated emails and wasting time, I had won a whole bunch of other items. But guess what, because my account was suspended I could not pay for them. I kept writing to ebay(shitheads) , pleading to at least pay for these items while being suspended but kept getting the same canned emails. Due to not being allowed to pay for these items the result has been more strikes against me for non-payment!!
My money will be spent elsewhere from now on.
Can we get a petition together to send to Google to start their own auction site? The problem seems to be that having a monopoly, ebay(shit-eaters) dont give a flying fuck about customers as they are making large profits.

BEWARE of EBYSUX!
He is a FRAUD and a CON ARTIST! My friend sent him $95 worth of e-Gold on Thursday morning (September 21) with the promise of a new eBay account and US checking account with ATM card within 24 hours.
It is now Monday morning and there has been no eBay account sent and NO RESPONSE to NUMEROUS emails!
AVOID EBYSUX at ALL COSTS!
