Banned by ebay. I have no idea why...




Please read the below email between myself and ebay. From the bottom to top. I haven't used my account to either buy or sell that many times so I don't get it.
As of yesterday, when I was banned I had two insta360 cameras on at $400 each or best offer. They had been on there for a week or so. I also purchased some car injector cleaner earlier this week.
I am at complete loss as to how or why this has happened. I do browse on it looking at items etc but this is something I have been doing for years.... I have also done a virus scan on my PC just to be safe and that's come back clear.

Moreover, in order to resolve this issue for you, I need to ask you few things related to

1. Are you planning to use your account for both buying and selling?
2. May I know what items are you planning to sell on eBay?
3. May I know the average estimate price for the items?
4. I would also like to know; how many items you are planning to list on a monthly
basis?
5. What are the items that you are planning to purchase on the site?
6. May I ask the payment method you are going to use to pay for your purchases?
7.. How long will you be able to pay for the items?
