Is it normal for eBay to ask for DL, bank statements, receipts after being restricted?

Is it normal for eBay to ask for DL, bank statements, receipts after being restricted? Are they going to flip out if I redact the prices on the receipts or redact the DL info.? I don't feel comfortable providing the first two pieces of information considering eBay's recent history.

Yes it is common for eBay to vett you as a seller moving forward on the eBay platform and especially if you are currently under some kind of restriction.

Good Luck Selling!

Best to Contact ebay to inquire as to what information you are permitted to redact from your submissions.

Frankly, after your recent history, I'm rather surprised eBay would consider lifting your restrictions. 

Good luck with your future transactions.

Explain your surprise if you would. Thanks. Seems like kind of a cold/mean thing to say considering the individual recieved a full refund and a free generator, don't you think? And, again, over what? Some scratched plastic?

• What is the restriction for?
• How long is the penalty?
• Did a competitor report your listings?

Good Luck Selling!

I'd love to supply that information, but every time I supply any information of eBay's actions it gets deleted. I wouldn't be surprised if this comment gets deleted.

No problem.  Not sure we can help you any further?

Make sure when you call to get a call reference number.  Many sellers report here in the forum when they call or fax items for verification they do not get any response back.  Just make sure you get a name and call number to match up after you send the required info.

Good Luck Selling!

Oh, yeah, I record calls any time it's mentioned that the call will be recorded. California is a two-party consent state, so I don't have to say anything after they do.

[psychecafe63]

Actually, if they're calling from another state how's that work? Anyway, that's another question.

[psychecafe63]

Wait, what? Can they do that? That seems like a smart tactic... Is there any way to check to see if this is what happened?

You would have gotten a message from ebay letting you know about any violation.   I was just trying to figure if you got a

• VERO violation or a
• selling standard violation.

No worries, it really is not that important.

Good Luck Selling!
