To become a seller you need to upgrade your Paypal account. If you haven't opened a Paypal account yet you need to do so and give them your bank account and credit card details.

Hi Suzie. You need to set yourself up properly if you want to sell on ebay.

This is from their help pages.

quote:

Selling items on eBay

To begin selling items on eBay you will need to verify your identity and tell us how you will pay your seller fees.

1. How to verify your identity

To sell items on eBay, you need to place one of the following on file:

PayPal account information

Credit or debit card

Checking account information

2. How to pay your seller fees

Once you've created a seller's account, you can choose to pay your seller feesusing the credit or debit card you've placed on file. However, you can also choose other payment methods instead, such as PayPal. For more details, see Paying Seller Fees.

Hi suzie

it's as Joono has already said. Setting up a seller account is not difficult, but you do need proper verification for your account first and your registration details need to be correct.

this link is the closest i could find explaining how it works

With so many 0 IDs specifically set up to harass people on CS, perhaps eBay is being careful in the type of seller they select? A search on your (current) ID shows what I mean ;\

Yes, I can see the problem. The OP has posted this question. Only.

I doubt anything that goes on in CS that didn't involve account closure would affect members being able to set up a selling account.

Try a _ instead of a -

Yes, they have had accounts closed.
