how easy is it to get back on ebay as a seller?

[pizzathehutt]

hi guy's i thought some of you may be able to help me with this, well im hoping anyway

about 3 years ago i had some bad luck on ebay and three of my sales going tits up, to cut a long and honest story short the post office, people recieving items late and me going on holiday got me banned as a seller (dont worry it was non star wars related)

i had it out with one of the staff but they said that was it, we no longer want you as a seller on here but feel free to still buy on here

since then ive had no problems selling stuff through gumtree but recently ive started to miss selling on ebay and i have a lot of tat that needs selling and i doubt most of this stuff has much of an audience on gumtree.

ive heard a few bits about changing your address but dont really know the ins and outs? and im pretty sure there are a few old star wars sellers on ebay that were band but are now on again under a different name?

do i have much of a chance to sell on ebay again? would love some advice from you guys on here.

Have you tried just opening an account??
Different email address might do it.

really? i thought your same address would link you to the old account once entered?

it doens't hurt to try

Also, This would mean, if you move the next guy who lives at your adress can't sell on ebay... that ain't logic.

Try another name/ email adress and you'll be fine i guess.

If i remember correctly you can't use the same bank account/card for multiple ebay accounts.

Can someone confirm?

I have 2 ebay accounts. Both use the same paypal account. There are no bank cards linked to my ebay accounts. Never heard of that before.

I doubt it very much. One of my ebay accounts has 4 addresses linked to it. I can chop and change the "main" address as much as i want. So which one is "me" ??
IF by some chance you can't open the account with your old address, open it with a new one. Then add your address to the account and when buying just select the right address.

Ebay requires a credit card in order to set up an account. This is where they will catch you, if you used that same credit card for the banned account. The address does not matter. They may figure it out, but honestly they are not that sharp and especially if it has been a few years.

I am on my thrid ebay account. The first one was banned for selling repro's back in the day. The next because I refused to refund money to a buyer who received their item...got smart and acted like they did not get it (with a prove it attitude). And now on my third trying to behave.
