If an ebay bidder gets 3 Final Value Credit reports they are suspended by ebay. My question is --- Is there any kind of time limit on how long the reports stay on one's ebay file? Has anyone ever seen a link that details the length of time each infraction stays active? Just curious.

I thought it was forever, but I could be wrong.

I think it's subjctive. you can "reapply" although who knows what the criteria is for reinstatement - paying past sellers 9or at least showing effort to is one, I think sock color, and birth weight of first born child or most recently aquired mammalian pet is another

Then it's another nebulous and vague ebay rule like the amount of bid retractions allowed before suspension?

It's a great rule but most bidders know nothing about it. I think ebay needs to eduacate its bidders a bit.

I understood the rule to be 3 NPB reports and the bidder in NARU for 30 days.

After the 4th it's a permanent vacation unless the deadbeat can get any of the sellers to recant.

Thanks toollady. Is there a link anywhere for that though?

The suspeneded bidder can get reinstated if one of the three sellers reverses the final credit fee but the auction(s) that can get reversed can not be older than 90 days as they disappear from the ebay database.

Hhmm...

According to this link:
http://pages.ebay.com/help/community/npb.html

The answer is
Non-Paying bidders face the following consequences through this program:
• First offense: warning
• Second offense: warning
• Third offense: Indefinite Suspension
(there is a link to the definition of indefinite suspension)
