One of the most unforeseen drawbacks to generally making a reasonable successful seller account on Ebay is the threat of all of a sudden being NARU'ed(Not A Registered User) which any potential buyer or previous buyers would see in large alarming letters, to make it worse recent buyers and indeed sellers you might have had a dealing or transaction with, even if the deal is not completed, you might have been on an initial contact on an email basis, would get an equally alarming email that your account had been suspended, and not to conclude any transactions with you, unfortunately if you were in the process of dispatching an item, after having it successfully bid on, and the buyer has already paid for it, on seeing such a message in their inbox, and in their ebay message centre, many buyers would automatically do a charge back on the transaction, especially if they paid via Ebay's payment system paypal. It does not matter if the chargeback occurs after you have sent the item, many sellers have been doubly affected with the ramificaitions of having their Ebay account suspended, even though the reasons maybe entirely innocent, such as a delay in paying any outstanding Ebay fees, or clarification that items you were selling were not counterfeit or you were not going against anybody's copyright by selling said item.
Looking at the feedback of many powersellers it is no coincidence that they build confidence immediately, they have been selling and buying on Ebay for such a long time that they know the ins and out, but here lies one of the most understated ways any buyer and seller can be safe from having their Ebay account especially selling privileges removed (if you receive a certain amount of negative feedback over a short period of time Ebay at it's discretion can place your account on hold, and since Ebay sellers can no longer leave negative feedback for a buyer, chances of stepping on the foot of a few disgruntled buyers can easily lead to this scenario) is by having two separate accounts for selling and buying, Ebay allows Ebayers to have one account for selling and another account for buying, that way there will be no misunderstanding or negative feedback crossing over from buyers or sellers that could hamper your feedback profile.
