I've seen tiktok ads.
3 celebrities take pictures of a mobile phone, post it on ebay and earn money.
Wonderful.

Stupid fucking assholes.
If you are new to ebay and have never used it, if you try to sell a mobile phone, there is a very, very high probability that you will get a lifetime ban.

I once had a "new" eBay account. I bought a few things.
Using a different ebay account, I bought a refurbished camera from a manufacturer sold on ebay.
I have signed up for my new ebay account.
banned after 1 day.

I had nothing to hide. I've never done anything wrong on ebay.
I called ebay, they told me to send them the receipts. I said there's no need for that, just look at my other account where I bought ON ebay. The Gimp customer service agent said: no, we need proof. I said "Good"! I printed emails from ebay and Paypal showing what I bought.

Like lightning, I was allowed to return to ebay! After all, there is a God out there somewhere! Yes-ha!
I turned on the camera again.
10 minutes later - I got a lifetime ban on this ebay account.

I called again. Gimp Gimp Gimp I talked to Gimp for gimp - everyone said, "We are the slaves of a great celestial master named ebay, and the Bible says you are banned for life - we cannot consider anything else as your explanations and apply common sense."

Just thought I'd like to share.
