Just a heads up- it's that time of the month on ebay when they start 'doing' things. This month , looking at the community boards, they are back to suspending or restricting under performing sellers .
Just run a quick check on your expanded seller dashboard and make sure all looks well

Actually reading more threads the 'theory' appears to be that this months cull is of sellers who are using accounts when previously banned or restricted on another rather than just under performing sellers.I’m a Forum Ambassador and I support the Forum Team on the eBay, Auctions, Car Boot & Jumble Sales, Boost Your Income, Praise, Vents & Warnings, Overseas Holidays & Travel Planning , UK Holidays, Days Out & Entertainments boards.

Does this extend to sellers who have more than one account to get around category restrictions on premium branded products?0

It is difficult to say, these are only theories being bandied around and like each 'cull' that ebay go through they only affect a tiny minority of sellers anyway.
It just seems that ebay have a 'favoured' cull each month, so sometimes it is private sellers being forced to upgrade to a business account, sometimes it is poorly performing sellers and this month, apparently, it is sellers using a second account to get round a previous ban or restriction. Like all theories though there is no way of proving whether the people discussing it are correct or not.I’m a Forum Ambassador and I support the Forum Team on the eBay, Auctions, Car Boot & Jumble Sales, Boost Your Income, Praise, Vents & Warnings, Overseas Holidays & Travel Planning , UK Holidays, Days Out & Entertainments boards.
