eBay does not use email with members anymore, and hasn't for quite a few
years. They use the web-based forms which are pre-sorted in their Kana
system. Your submission and your situation may be handled in Vancouver,
B.C.; Salt Lake City, Utah; Dublin, Ireland; Dreilinden, Germany; or
outsourced to a company in Florida. The web-forms actually speed up
processing because the different queues are routed to the proper office.
If you registered a new account while your original account was NARU, or
suspended, you may find yourself suspended again, and with no appeal.
It's just a matter of their system detecting it, or someone pointing it
out to them and them being able to confirm it.
eBay went from being a small company that used email and people got to
know each other, to a huge international company with little interaction
outside of narrowly limited parameters. It can be irritating to deal
with them, but the real alternative is to not use eBay at all.

I have found that the links they have emailed me do not work, mostly.
You sound like an eBay employee or promoter.

Thanks, Beverly, but I do sing the praises of eBay. LOL! It's been a
boon for me, although I also understand that John has not shared my good
fortune there. There is no viable competitor. There are some good
niche market sites, but no general site that's anywhere near eBay in
reaching buyers and sellers.

eBay is definitely a good thing and the way of the future but their
management is terrible so far.
