Banned from Ebay Motors!

**downunder1** · #1 11-09-2013, 05:47 PM

Ebay has banned all non-American members from viewing or buying cars on Ebay Motors. They gave me no valid reason at all when I emailed them to ask why.
It was almost a daily ritual for me and several friends to peruse the cars for sale. Myself and lots of friends here in NZ have bought cars off Ebay Motors without any serious issues.
I am very angry with Ebay and its attitude, treating us like dummies.

There has to be a way to route your search thru an IP address in the US. Someone like Bruce can point you in the right direction. I being a computer caveman, don't have a clue.

My cousin in England just bought a vintage truck off ebay out of Spokane, and it just shipped out.

You might want to check and make sure that you weren't just phished into providing your user name and password via a fake ebaymotors alert email. If I was you, I would immediately go to the main ebay page on your own, not using any links, and reset your password.

Has anyone else noticed you can no longer view what people have bought when you view there feedbacks. eBay just keeps shooting themselves in the foot as the years go buy. [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/no.gif[/img]

Also it is a shame how many eBay sellers refuse to sell to anyone outside of the USA [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/no.gif[/img]

Shipping is as easy to Canada as it is to the US, all you need to do is fill out the correct customs form. I ALWAYS use the USPS cause the postal service doesn't scwer Canadians over on the fees like some other carriers do. The post office does charge a bunch for sending a package to Canada though so that might deter a lot of buyers and sellers, but it doesn't even slow me down. If someone is willing to pay the freight, I'm willing to ship it pretty much wherever they are.
