HI guys, I struggle with ebay a lot and thought if i joined you it might help me get over my issues with the site at least a little bit! Aesop recommended this thread (thanks Aesop!!)

I have no free listings because i ended up in hospital in dec and so angry christmas shoppers left me negative feedback and opened cases that had to be resolved by paypal - nothing i could do about it, but bit of a pain now missing out on the listings - have loads of stuff that i list for 99p but wish i could get more for it!

Anyway winge over - am just going to go and relist some things - bit late now i know but better than 9am i guess

Hi Fairyclicks

Could you start again? Open up a new ebay account and buy a few small things to get some good feedback? I think you get your free listings back as soon as you link your account to a valid paypal account and get a little bit of feedback. And you don't want that negative feedback associated with you anyway.

I haven't done it myself, so I don't know if there's any problem in having more than one ebay account, but I'm sure some people on here have more than one...

thanks lannieduck i have actually tried that but as soon as they link the accounts because of the banking info the restrictions are placed on the new account as well. i think its terrible to have the restrictions for a year :eek: and the only way round it is to sell lots in each month! for now i can only tick along as is i think.

Hi Fairyclicks - yes Ive got 2 accounts and they are linked, so if I got restrictions placed on one Im pretty sure the other would be affected. Guess you just have to put up with it for a year - nightmare.
Im a little obsessed (Think ebay makes you an obsessive type person!) with my star ratings and always check them so that I can see where any lower ones have come from! Luckily havent had any in a while.
Anyway - lovely day here so going to take girls to the park as soon as it warms up a bit... will try to get some listings done later.

Thanks for posting...:beer:

Did not have much luck last weekend...:o Listed nearly 70 items but hardly sold 10 out of it.....

So the good thing is all are ready to relist for this FLW...;)

Good luck everyone for listing loads...:)

No FL for me but managed to get 32 listings back on last night which uses the rest of my free 99p ones for the month - does everyone get 100 99p ones for free or does that go up eventually?

fairyclicks - have you tried contacting eBay and explaining what happened and seeing if they can remove the restrictions? It seems a bit unfair to hold this against you for a year when you had no control over the situation - it's not like you were being malicious or intentionally withholding peoples' money!

No i hadn't thought of doing that - i suppose it is worth a try although i did read somewhere they will only remove restrictions for certain reasons and there didn't seem to be anything i could do in my circumstances - an email never hurts though thanks katie i will give it a try
