What changes are being made to the enforcement of eBay policies for PowerSellers and Top-rated sellers?
Some eBay policies are very severe, and eBay takes a strong stance toward severe policy violations from all sellers, including PowerSellers. These policies include shill bidding, selling counterfeit items, and manipulating Feedback, DSRs, or other performance measures. Violation of these policies may result in immediate restriction or suspension, as well as loss of PowerSeller and Top-rated seller status and discounts. Enforcement and consequences of severe policy violations are not changing. However, your Seller Dashboard will be updated to show severe versus non-severe policy violation counts. For other non-severe policies, PowerSellers, like all sellers, are expected to follow eBay guidelines. Excessive violations may result in restriction or suspension, as well as loss of PowerSeller and Top-rated seller status.
