    could it be you used the word cash
    I had one of my listings withdrawn
    and blocked from listing for 24 hours
    because I had this as a form of
    payment.they also hate the words
    dollars & Euros

    yep i put cash on collection but is a bit strong to suspend the account as i had lots of other things on other auction. why cant they just block words that are big no-no's or warn you about them..?! grrr

    ive tried it on my account with other things listed and i was suspended (thought it was because i kept emailing staff because there response time was sooo slow) so i then put the car on my boyfriends account.

    Emailing staff about what?

    Maybe you account was suspended because of some of you other items.

    i thought that initially because i had a playboy top (that was official) and branded other stuff but i think it is the car as on my b/f account that was the only auction.

    i was emailing staff after 12 hours of waiting for said playboy top to appear on ebay.

    just used a mates account to go on to the messageboard as i couldnt on mine, and basically they said i had put that account in danger too!!

    i find this completely immpossible to get my head around and am close to screaming at my pc. you lot are keeping me sane at the minute...lol

    i have to admit ive had few listings pulled in my time on ebay and they are none to helpful in telling you why.
    if they just told you what you have done wrong and how to correct it then this would be much easier.
    its as if they dont like sellers.
    everything is geared towards the buyer at every turn these days.
