eBay Suspensions Are So Frustrating!
If you are like me and you make most of your income if not all of it through eBay, then you will know how frustrating it is when you receive an eBay suspension. eBay suspensions are one of those rare moments that usually never happened, at least that is how it was back when I started selling in 2005. Lately, things have changed and they changed drastically over the years. Members who you have completed transactions with years back are now suspended!
So Many eBay Suspensions!
To be honest, scrolling in my free time for my past feedback and transactions, I have noticed quite a lot of things. 1) Half of the eBay members I dealt with are now suspended. 2) Even powersellers and high feedback users are now "Not A Registered User" or NARU'd for short! What gives?! Has eBay gone off the deep end?! eBay makes money off these sellers, and issuing eBay suspensions like they were free (yes, I know they are free) is absolutely insane! I am not to informed on what those members did, but just seeing how many people get suspended by eBay is a scary thought.
eBay Suspensions, No One Is Safe!
Yes, that is right! No one is safe, not powersellers, not your new eBay members nor your high feedback eBay users. Everyone is a victim until he or she receives an eBay suspension. When and will it happen? Hard to say, it could happen when you least expect it. This is why, avoiding an ebay suspension can almost be inevitable. So the real question is, "How Can I Avoid An eBay Suspension?"
My Answer?
You really can't! If powersellers and all these life-long members of eBay are getting eBay suspensions, then what makes the other guy less likely to get it? Is it because he is following eBay's guidelines? Is he doing everything correctly? Or is it possible that he/she is staying away from eBay's spotlight. Any possibility you can think of can be a possible answer, but all answers are not all definitive answers per say. We never know why it could happen or why eBay issues suspensions like the do.
One thing I can give you is to read as much as possible on creating new ebay accounts. For example, one ebook that I recently downloaded was eBay Incognito Mini which is free by Auction Essistance. It is a nice basic guide to give the fundamentals of creating an "Incognito" account. These accounts are basically eBay accounts that are meant to avoid being traced by eBay when your account gets suspended. This is good if you rely heavily on eBay for income. I highly recommend it and to get started as soon as possible as you will not know when the next eBay suspension will strike.
The most important aspect about dealing in the eBay game is eBay suspensions and this is also the #1 reason why many give up. Just because you receive an eBay suspension doesn't always equate to your business going down or completely shutting down. This just means you have another hurdle to get over. eBay has been helping many get their business up, so to stay in the game you need to be prepared for anything that might come your way!
