It looks like I'm just banned from buying from certain sellers. Conveniently the ones with all the good deals..

Lucky you. I'd take that any day.

I was suspended 2 weeks ago and I saw a video that was posted last week by MarkS and went ahead and bought their manual and it worked. Just in case any of you guys got screwed by ebay. These guys are pretty good about  answering all your questions, usually within minutes, which blew my mind and they're very polite - which is rare with support people. You can contact them before you buy the manual to ask them anything you want and they reply very fast. They're website is www.backonebay.com hope it helps somebody.

Its not a big deal getting back on eBay, its all about being super careful that you don't get linked back to your previous account.

I highly recommend waiting a little, and do all the proper research, and have everything very well thought out before opening a new account.

Even a very small link could get your new account shutdown, and all the work, and new info that you used will be lost.

[TheMentsh]

I agree it's not a big deal, but only IF (and it's a BIG if) you know what you're doing. There are quite a few pitfalls, some that most people would have no idea of. I noticed you said "it's all about being super careful that you don't get linked" Well, yes, if you know what to look for so you can be careful of it. But if someone doesn't understand exactly how eBay links you, how can they be careful of something they don't even see or know that it's there? See what I mean? WHAT exactly should they be watching out for?

And how does a person who is not a techie know if he is doing the "proper research"? Where does he look? And HOW LONG is that going to take them? Time is money, especially when every day that goes by you are losing sales.

I know you mean well, Name Changed, I just wanted to add that to some people it will be more helpful to point them to something specific.

I tried to do it on my own for MONTHS and kept getting linked until I said I said to myself "the heck with it" and bought one of those manuals for $30. Guess what? I got right back on eBay the next day. It cost me a lot more money to try to do research than to just buy the darn thing and get it over with.

I want to make it clear that I'm not selling this stuff and I don't get anything out of it. I just know it works and the money it cost me was NOTHING, NOTHING compared to the sales I lost because I was afraid of buying it and getting ripped off.

That's my honest opinion, and for all you guys that are going crazy because you got suspended, don't mess around trying to figure it out yourselves, really, it's going to cost you a lot more in time and lost sales and STILL you're not going to be sure you're doing everything right.

Just buy a manual - any manual - it doesn't have to be from the same people I got it from, as long as they know what they're doing, and just follow the directions. It will be cheaper, safer and faster.

That was my experience and I am just passing it on to help anybody who is in that spot right now.

Personally, I have been using: http://www.free-ebooks.net/ebook/Ebay-Incognito to help me get back on eBay. It does get tough at first, but the more you do it the easier it becomes.

You supposedly spent $30 on a manual, write a post ten pages long, and don't share one thing you learned?

SPAM.

I wouldn't be shocked if the manual is shorter than your megillah.

This guy was banned from ebay - he thinks for buying too many gift cards (opening multiple accounts) and he blames dans deals for giving him the idea

Yes, I spent $30 on the manual, not supposedly, I did spend it.
My post is not ten pages long, that's an exaggeration.
I shared the point I wanted to make which was that it is easy to get back, but you have to know how.
I see that you are upset because I didn't re-type the information I had to pay for so you could read it for free.
The manual is much longer than my "megillah" as you put it, it is 89 pages long.
Look up the word spam in a dictionary, I think you need to.
How old are you anyway?
