I have my settings to 1 strike but this doesn't stop the so called NEW false members setting up accounts buying and not paying as there is always one or two maybe 3 sellers who will get stung first. I had one woman keep setting up with similar ID's but same address who purchased from me. 2nd & 3rd times when I saw address I notified eBay and they said "are you sure its same person" hello??? same name, same address, false non working phone number, does this answer your stupid question. New members should be made to prove ID (name & address) same as sellers need to go thru Bank and PayPal verifications
