"I've been Suspended from Ebay"

It was my dad's fault, he kept buying stuff and then changing his mind and ignoring the seller's e-mails.

Now that i'm suspended I cant look at the items i've bought, items i've sold etc. and I cant even leave feedback!

At the moment i'm waiting for two cheques to come and two items to come and I cant leave feedback for any of them.

How long will I be suspended for?

Oh, I read all that, and it still makes me wet.

Only ever been screwed over by a seller once, never sent a CD out I paid for with Paypal, so I rang up Barclaycard, did a chargeback and got the money back, and Paypal suspeneded him and charged him £15 'cause of the chargeback.

I have knowingly bought possibly fake items occasionaly, but never received them when I wan't expecting them.

Bizarrely, the further away from you the seller is the faster and better the service in my experience - I do very well with the Hong Kong/Japanese etc ones - great stuff, great service, fast posting, all round great.

Good point, I should have created a new account and I have now.

Usually these people have very good feedback ratings, actually.

If its your dad's account, why complain?

Shouldn't you use your own account in the first place?

But why do I deserve it?

My dad just buys stuff on there and then leaves it to me to find an excuse.

I've sorted it out now buy creating a NEW Ebay account, I still have to use my dads one because I have a few people who are sending me cheques etc.

Only idiots who don't know what they are doing on Ebay get tricked.
Never ever buy links because they usually lead to those money making schemes, Don't buy items without pictures, Don't buy items if they seem too cheap too be true, Unless it looks like you can trust the person don't buy from people with low feedback.
Follow those rules and you will be fine on Ebay.

you'll be done for a month.

I got suspended once.. for making £80 out of monkies who bought links off me.

Yea everything you buy is fake... nope thats not the case IF you read peoples feedback rating.

Brilliance. I really enjoyed that.

Couldn't have been better if it was fiction :-)
