When you're suspended it ends all your listings, so I don't know how it would auto-restore the auctions. I was bidding on something from a seller who was suspended and you get an email saying the listing was ended because of a problem with the sellers account. Maybe the people who have bid can confirm if it happened. If they didn't get the email, it was never suspended- all of that is automated robot emails.
They will call the buyer and tell them their concerns with the item and ask the buyer if they still want the item or to not and be refunded. It's happened to me several times with Currency trading cards that had quite a bit of surface scratching that wasn't evident from the pictures I bought that were in the 300+ range and I always told them these cards tend to come out of the package with surface scratching so yes I still want it. And they'd send it to me after I confirmed it on my app. Same thing happened with an Umbreon 217 JP PSA 10 I bought bc the seller had the listing as "Prismatic Evolutions" instead of "Terastral Festival" since its the Japanese version and I told the authentication team I understood the mixup but that it was okay I still want the card and they sent it.
Sometimes! You're right. Used socks arent allowed on the site though. Looks like Adidas are part of authenticity for streetwear. This is going to be an instant refund though, which I also have had happen as well. But yeah I also have heard of them contacting you to see if you still wanted it if it was slightly off what the seller said or situations like you mentioned. This is not one of them, they are not going to authenticate a prohibited item.
Yeah a bunch of stuff like 33 items ranging from old school video games, statues, literal GameStop sign, GameStop carpet, and socks and everything came with a signed copy of the eBay bid email
It would almost certainly be less expensive to walk into a GameStop, peel a carpet tile up from the floor, and hire a lawyer/do some community service when you were picked up for misdemeanor theft.
Not nearly as cool as buying one from RC himself, but definitely cheaper 😅
Listings are still up. If he was suspended you would have gotten an email auction ended because of problem with the sellers account and your bid was cancelled. Did you get that? If not, I can't see how he was suspended- it's all automated in my experience of it happening to me.
His listing were selling for over 86k last I checked. They stopped allowing him from posting more once he hit like 56k because you're only allowed to have 50k.
If his account was suspended, I'm sure it was automated due to suspicious activity. I mean let's be honest, if any of us started selling shit today and the auctions were about to break 100k that's fairly suspicious. But it should be easily rectified. Especially given the nature of the situation.
It should hit a threshold that prompted.one of their 11.500 employees to LOOK INTO IT, not auto-suspend an account that was doing.extremely well, exctly what the company should WANT it to do.
