Thief: taking something that is not yours

I'm an 18yr, 100% rated Ebayer. Rapidly became disabled and lost my hands and arms thru spinal trauma. I've always counted on eBay so felt comfortable listing my auctions in an attempt to survive. Success; sold $1800 worth of equipment, all shipped the next day, passed along tracking numbers, and communicated with buyers as usual. Ebay then restricted my account, cut off all other auction items. All buyers paid, but I have not seen a cent. I paid for the shipping, confirmed they received the product, and now after a solid week, I still have not seen one penny. As a stellar seller and buyer, I caution all to the big bully in the room. The mgt must despise disabled people because I did nothing wrong. After 18yrs I think I get how things work. Each and every phone call for customer service for the last week has gotten nothing resolved except now they say i'm well above average in my ebay activity. Yes, ebay must love my donations to their bottom line. Thou shalt not steal must not resonate with the management.

Re: Thief: taking something that is not yours

I am all for freedom of speech, totally against incorrect and off topic advice, it is dangerous and misleading - see the red highlighted in your post.

 

This in particular: on ebay official website, they says they still allow seller continue to use paypal if they choose to is a totally false statement.

 

The Topic of this thread mentions nothing about ''suspended accounts'' but restricted accounts.

eBay will hold payments on any new seller and will restrict account listings until bank information is provided by the seller.

Re: Thief: taking something that is not yours

Everything changed while you were away for over a year.  

 

Ebay sent you messages, which you ignored.  Ebay resent messages, which you still ignored.  

 

And now it's ebay's fault because you didn't read those messages?  

 

You think amzn is going to let you use paypal to collect payment?

 

You didn't follow the rules.  This is all on you.

Re: Thief: taking something that is not yours

Sellers can NO LONGER USE PAYPAL.  No seller can accept payment though paypal.  It's all through managed payments now.  

 

Buyers can pay with paypal and that money goes to managed payments.  

 

When you try to pass misinformation as fact, that's when you get called out.

To add to the confusion, BUYERs can still use Paypal to make payments for eBay purchases.    However, those payments will not be received into the Sellers Paypal account.   All payments received, will go to the Seller Managed Payments account that they set up with eBay.

Re: Thief: taking something that is not yours

You have options.

Sign up for Managed Payments. Give all required information, fulfill any requests. Once done, you'll be able to get paid, sell more stuff, and your eBay life will go on much the same as it used to. List, ship, get paid. Simple.

Or don't.

YOUR choice.

Ebay has no clue you are disabled so I stopped reading right there.
