    Angry Ebay help

    I'm having great trouble on Ebay. I've emailed them, talked to them on their "live" help support and spent 20 minutes on the phone with Paypal. Nothing is resolved so I'm turning to my SW girls.

    I live in Canada and I'm listing on ebay.ca with the option to ship internationally to the US. When I go to list the item, it tells me that I cannot sell internationally for security purposes. In order to list internationally, I need to have a verified paypal account that is linked to my Ebay account. I verified my account by getting 2 small deposits several days ago and I linked it to my account. When I log into Paypal I can see that might account is verified with a confirmed back account and I can see that it is linked to my Ebay account. Frustrated, I made a second account, linked it, and the same thing occurs.

    What do I do?

    I think that the verified account is similar to the eBay feedback.
    You have to have gone through some successful transactions with other verified Paypal users to have YOUR account verified too.

    I have positive feedback of 2.

    When I try, it tells me that I need to have my account verified with Paypal and linked, not that I need positive feedback

    What they did was made 2 small deposits into my chequing account and then I had to confirm the amount so they would know the account is mine.

    When I looked it up, the seller reputation isn't required, and to get you have to be a seller already!

    "Seller Reputation
    The Seller Reputation Number measures how many Verified PayPal members have paid that seller. New transactions are added 30 days after they occur, to ensure that the Reputation Number reflects successful exchanges."
    (this is not your eBay feedback)

    So now I have No Idea! To be verified you've done the right thing.


    Have you met all the criteria within eBay to be a seller? You have to be verified by them too. (separately)

    Well after 20 minutes on the phone with Paypal, several emails, and 1 hour with Ebay customer support, I found out the problem. I am listing a "Playboy" bathing suit and I can't list the brand name without special approval since it could be a fake.

    I wouldn't have minded if the error message said that instead of saying that I couldn't list to US because my Paypal account was not verified and linked to my Ebay account.
