I was the user bsdakunar selling really just a few items on ebay that i thought i woukd sell there brgore launching them on my old site. All seemed fine. The items would sell no troublrs at all. I had a perfect feedback score and never a problem apart from having to abide by 25item ot $1250 usd per month limits. Then the first blow. I recieved a 21day hold on my funds. I was ****ed but thought i would kick on. I then recieved an email saying i need a 25 good feedback from 25 US citizens by the end of my initial 90days of being with ebay. This was clearly something put in place to keep my selling that is outside of the US tame. I played along and found i was going to make that happen easily. Then the final blow. My account was suspended indefinatley with no case for appeal. What the !@#$.... Ebay wont give me a reason but did eventually hint that my buisness model doesnt suit them and im a threat to the ebay community meaning a threat to the power sellers in the US. Apparantley someone i hadnt sold to had complained that if i sell they couldnt to put it simply and this was enough to get me suspended. I manufacturer, buy and sell motorcycle parts out of Thailand. The parts i make and sell are for Thai made motorcycles ONLY. These bikes are now available in the US so some of the struggling to keep up their lavish lifestyle sellers got worried and complained it seems. I dont need ebay and thought i would be helping them as its not garbage that im selling and im not a fraudulent seller. What ****es me off is that the items i was making which are the only in the world that i was selling are still found in search engines leading people to buy inferior chinese all be it listed US alternatives. As a buyer and seller on ebay i can tell the people contemplating it not to bother. Only two items i ever got from ebay that was what i paid for was from a seller in hongkong and china even though i had been ripped off in both these locations also but when i pay just over $1000 for an item in the US i expect to get what i pay for. Nope, not possible! I never complain and can fix just about anything. Im a good honest person selling as my source of income. Selling on ebay was a mistake. Its corrupt, fraudulent, criminal in everyway and border line a human rights abuse. I have been hung up on when calling, never recieved a written email with fake names listed in them. The next problem is when they suspended my account 2 people had just purchased. The account was shut as soon as i paid the seller fees on that. I was then forced to refund the buyers with paypal and return the shipping of one item to avoid being further ripped off because i have no means of appeal if the buyer claims there is a problem. Because they shut down my account in the midst of sales those seller fees should be returned to me. They clearly stated they wont refund because my account has been suspended. What...? Like that is my fault! Is ebay going broke? are they trying to have a US ebay only? Are they trying to only have big retail chains onboard from the US with similar things to happen in the UK? I feel i have been pursecuted for geographical reasons and the reasons that i have the ability to knock the top sellers off ebay if given a chance but due to my location its just not allowed. This is bad for consumers. They now need to buy hugely marked up Garbage only! The head of ebay is a consultant on many US econmic issues i read. God help the US! The US has been a role model for my lifetime but allowing ebay to steal from people like in this case and the many hundreds of thousands more as seen online is criminal. I have contacted consumer affairs in the US and locally and am going to continue the fight. I hope no one else has to be treated the way i have. A little human compasion wouldnt be too much to ask. Im not one to want sympathy only fairness. I mentioned that i am undergoing life saving therapy at the moment which sadly has failed twice previously and that this cost me $2000 USD a week. Because of the 21day holds in place and then suspension it got me a little worried as i wasnt prepared financially. Ebay didnt care to listen. So not only do they like to punish people by wrongfully shutting accounts but then laugh when i tell them my life is in danger. My warning is dont buy or sell on ebay. They dont protect sellers. Its a lie to make you feel comfortable to spend but you will be ripped off. For sellers just dont bother. They only want big US chains on board in the future. Its there only way to sweep the damage under the carpet.
