Ebay imposes restrictions!

Today ebay texted me and imposed a restriction. I wrote the restriction detail at the bottom, now I will not be able to get the money of the products I sold for 1 month to my bank account?

Drop shipping items is not a good business practice.

 

It could be longer than 30 days before you receive any payment and you are really close to having your account shut down.

 

You should do as the email instructs and make sure that you are following all the policies 100%.

So I won't get paid until the restriction is lifted?

I won't get paid when I make a sale? Until the restriction is lifted?

Dropshipping from Amazon, the restriction might not be lifted.

I got the restriction not from dropshipper but because I canceled 5-6 purchased products. I was in a different place for a while so I had to return it

They don't like it when you cancel orders.

Dropshipping from Amazon is not allowed here and can get you suspended.

So, according to this restriction, I will not receive payment until the end?

And therein lies the catalyst for your problem and restrictions. 

 

Another unsolicited piece of advice I'll make is that it might be a good idea to remove Louis Vuitton's logo as your profile picture. That copyrighted image is their own protected intellectual property and LV doesn't hesitate to come after those who use their logo. You do NOT want to deal with Louis Vuitton VeRO.

Okay, I get it. I mean, here's what I'm saying. At the end of 1 month, if it is not canceled, will I get payment from the products I sell. Can I get paid now from the products I sell?

If eBay shuts you down your money will go to your countries unclaimed property department. If there is one.

If eBay doesn't shut you down they may ask for receipts for all of the items you sold then shut you down because you can't furnish those receipts.

 

Since you are going to Amazon or wherever, buying the items in your buyers name so you will not have any receipt to show you had the item in your possession. This practice is against eBay policy and not how true drop shipping works. Drop shipping policy 

True drop shipping is when you sign up with an official wholesale company and draw up a contract.

The only one that knows when or if you'll be paid is Ebay.

If they suspend your account, you'll get the money, but it might be a few months.

@lifevault 

You are still up and running as of this writing. Don't cancel any orders and make sure the suppliers you are working with can ship the products effectively. Also make sure they have the products in stock. I would take down any listings you are unsure of getting the product shipped in a timely manner.

 

My "guess" is that you will eventually get paid as long as you have an active selling account. No one here can tell you when payment will happen.

 

Good luck.

Its patently obvious you are dropshipping from Amazon.  Bad, bad, bad.

 

 You seem laser focused on getting your money, but seem oblivious to the issues that got you into trouble in the first place.  

 

I hope your account is not reinstated.

What everyone here is trying to tell you, is that your account is on the verge of becoming toast.

Take all of their wisdom seriously, or your days on ebay will be flushed down the toilet.
