Gee it must be great, not having to worry about all the ebay  and forum rules, How come they don't apply to you.   Then of course there are the civil liabilities, which again apparently don't apply to you.

You are a new seller as far as ebay is concerned, so the  21 day hold on funds applies (to you as well).

You need to make some effort to keep up to date with ebay policies as they apply now.
