As a ebay seller for 10+ years i can say it is way worse than it used to be. 100% feedback and 5.0 on all my dsr's. They go by a system now where your graded by the defect rate. A return is a defect. Item not as described is a defect and so on. Basically your account gets reduced to selling limits of 5 items and $700 because you sell used items. Even selling 100% new items it is impossible to be in ebays good graces unless you run very high volume, ie your an anchor seller. I called customer support last week about the 5 item / $700 selling limit. There response was you need to improve so i asked how i can improve if i can only sell 5 items a month lol. The customer service rep was silent for about 10 seconds then fed me this rediculous line of bs that it will gradually improve over time.
First it was feedback you were judged on and then it was the dsr's and now its the defect rate. Ebay is forcing small sellers out is whats going on. If you havnt seen it yet just wait.
