In order to protect you and your buyers if something goes wrong, transactions must be completed on eBay. We’re invested in bringing you more buyers and helping your business grow. We want to continue to partner with you to do that.
eBay provides methods to personalise a transaction. For example, you can make a private offer to your buyer or set up your listings to invite best offers.
We understand that you might not have known about these policies. At this time, no restrictions are being placed on your account. However all applicable fees for the item(s) where this activity occurred still apply. We encourage you to review the details of the policy to understand what you can and can’t do. During the next 3 days, please make sure your selling activities follow these guidelines. If you don't, your account(s) may be subject to a range of actions, including:
- Final value fees may be assessed when you have offers to sell outside of eBay, even if the item didn't actually sell.
- You won’t be able to list or buy for up to 7 days.
- Some or all of your fixed price listings may be hidden from search results for 7 days, and fees won't be refunded.
- You won’t be able to send or receive messages with eBay members unless you have a recent transaction.
