I been restricted and I do not know what to look for

So, have not been Selling here for quite some time, and suddenly want to start selling some items I do not longer need , but suddenly sees that I have been Restricted from Selling. I guess it is because I have not been Selling for the last 3 or 4 yrs or so..

It says GO LOOK at your Messages. I go look at my Messages, but I have no idea what I am looking for and I can not find anything specific.

Am I looking for something that is may 4yrs old then or perhaps something I have deleted ages ago?

Who am I supposed to write to, to get this in order?

Or am I supposed to start with a Listing that is a Low-Value Item perhaps? Like something that is $50 instead of $400 maybe??

What am I supposed to do to find out what to do, so I am able to sell some items that takes up too much space in my apartment?

That case there was some time ago, and I was done, and was likely not coming back and selling again. But now I do till have my Ebay and I now want to come back and sell again, since because I need it. And the Suspension that was back then was back then and I could explain it in full detail, but I will choose not to, because I do not need to, and thingas have changed, a lot, since I last was a seller here. Too much even.

 

Anyway, now we are in ´25, I still have my Account, and now I wish to sell some Items for a little while, till I choose not to anymore.


A permanent suspension means just that, permanent. You burned your bridge back in 2021.

Re: I been restricted and I do not know what to look for

Not much Faith to be had here I see from some of you.

I did what I actually asked help for, found out where to get in touch and have done so.

I am better off getting in direct touch with Ebay, instead of asking fellow Ebayers for help, who thinks I am the baddest  seed of them all no matter what.

It's not that, when eBay does a permanent ban that doesn't change. You can't talk your way out of it.

You dont seem to understand that noone can help you come back from a permanent suspension, thats Ebays decision.

Re: I been restricted and I do not know what to look for

Just for the record there are a number of posts here referring to a post the OP left in 2001...
But that post wasn't left in 2001, it was in 2021...
Anyway, it seems the OP was permanently suspended as a direct result of some events back then that basically led to failing to meet ebay's minimum seller requirements - to which it appears the OP left in a huff never to come back in reply. 
Is it possible if the OP had addressed the problem in 2021 that Ebay would not have permanently suspended the account? Hard to say, all depends how severe the issues were, how bad the metrics were failing and what was causing them to fail and if any of that could be corrected (and if it was corrected if that would be enough to bring the metrics back up to passing standard before ebay's next review).
Either way, now the OP wants back in.
And ebay's answer, well you guys gave it all away: The OP was permanently suspended in 2021.
So now the OP is once again leaving in a huff.

It would be comical were it not for the tragedy within.

The earliest  this issue could of happened is the  date the OP became an eBay member is this  date

whgamer (53) 

 

  • Positive Feedback (last 12 months): 100%
  • Member since: Aug-26-15 in Norway
From  the  photo teh OP posted
 Just for clarification purposes for the OP
per·ma·nent
adjective:
  1. lasting or intended to last or remain unchanged indefinitely.
     
    From the  less than clear pic the OP posted - it appears the OP feel  below average for  at least a 90 day period which equals turn out the lights time in their selling career on eBay shorty BEFORE  they  posed  the original  tread 09-18-2021 FYI: could not make out the  month and date just barely the year. - am a '44 year model

Re: I been restricted and I do not know what to look for

I have done what I have done. No need to reply anymore. I got in touch directly with Ebay, to see what I may be able to do. If anything.

A Moderator can close this Thread now. No need to hammer down on anyone that does not deserve it.

Re: I been restricted and I do not know what to look for

@reallynicestamps Thank you for providing me the links, but I already got in touch with Ebay Support and waiting their response. They be back in 24hrs or so with a reply so I can get done what I can get done to make things in somehow order, if anyhow possible. maybe they CAN help me to some degree, to solve this so it may be at least a better one.

Because how it is, I do not and never deserved it. But surely some see it differently and think I deserve it full time and permanently.
