Shadowbanned On My Main Account, TURN THE LIGHTS ON, EBAY

Our family runs 3 eBay accounts. This is the main one. The past 31 days here have been the worst in months. Almost nothing the past week. Funnily enough, our newest account, which usually only gets about one order a month (if that) for very similar p...
