my question is how many auctions are you allowed to have shut down by ebay because they are considered a violation of the rules?
is it 2,,4,6, etc... and what happens if you have crossed over the limit

I know once you cross over the limit you get suspended. I once had 3 auctions pulled in one day and that was after 2 others in 6 months prior to that. I was being "reviewed for suspension" and had to do some serious a** kissing to stay active.

It's probably 30 days, but you have to watch your step during those 30 days because if they catch you listing or doing anything you're not supposed to then it's forever.

thanks for your reply iam just trying to narrow it down to how many is to many and what causes it to rise to the level of a suspension?

I don't think there is any set cutoff. I know eBay doesn't publish guidelines, because from a legal standpoint that would be troublesome for them. That's why they generally say they reserve the right to cancel any listing or suspend any user.
And reviewing comments placed on the board here, we've seen people suspended indefinitely for infractions that others apparently just got a warning for. (Of course, in many cases we have only their side of the story.)
I think it depends a lot on who gets your "case" and how they feel about a particular infraction, but that's just a guess.
