First of all, it is necessary to clarify the reason for this situation: GBC law firms generally only freeze PayPal accounts, but eBay accounts will not be affected. GBC will obtain the seller’s PayPal account by purchasing the products from the seller’s PayPal store, and finally take freezing measures to freeze the seller’s account and funds.
It should be noted that an eBay account will have a corresponding PayPal account, but different products can set different PayPal accounts. For example, PayPal account number of A corresponding to eBay account number is its corresponding B, but the collection account number on its product may be the corresponding B account number.
In order to improve efficiency and concealment, law firms such as Keith and EPS generally only take screenshots to obtain evidence, so they can’t get the PayPal account set for products, so they can only freeze the eBay account and then ask the platform to provide the PayPal account of the defendant seller.
Therefore, in the face of this situation, if the eBay account of the defendant seller is extremely important, he has to choose to settle, but most of the time he wants to set up a small amount of PayPal funds. Take Keith as an example, the guaranteed settlement money is about 1,000 to 2,000 dollars. For the settlement with EPS law firm, it needs to be based on the sales amount and quantity of the infringing products of the defendant seller. If the sales quantity and funds are large, it will need tens of thousands of dollars in settlement money.
Why the eBay account is restricted and all products in the store are stopped selling. At present, the answer can only be explained around eBay’s handling strategy, which is decided by eBay platform, not the plaintiff’s request, because eBay has not streamlined the handling of rogue law firms for the time being, and it is not flexible enough to deal with traditional American enterprises, which has also brought a lot of losses to sellers.
