eBay Item Not Received (INR) Suspension: Appeal Guide

eBay restricts or suspends accounts when the Item Not Received (INR) defect rate crosses the seller-protection threshold. The fix is operational — fewer untracked shipments, faster carrier upgrades, and disputing every wrong INR with proof.

Root Cause Analysis

Too many INR cases were closed without seller protection within the rolling evaluation window. Common causes: untracked Standard mail, late uploads of tracking, ship-from address mismatch, and not contesting INR cases with valid proof of delivery.

Required Documents

  • Carrier proof-of-delivery scans for every disputed INR (last 90 days)
  • Tracking upload history exported from Seller Hub
  • Carrier scan exceptions (e.g. delivered to mailbox, signature required)
  • Plan to upgrade all shipments to a tracked, scan-on-delivery service

Recovery Steps

  1. 1

    Dispute the wrong INRs

    Open Seller Hub → Performance → Cases. For every INR with a delivered scan, request appeal with the carrier tracking and scan history. Successful appeals are removed from the defect rate.

  2. 2

    Upgrade your shipping service

    Move all shipments under $50 to USPS Ground Advantage or equivalent. Anything above $750 must require a signature.

  3. 3

    Submit a written Plan of Action

    State the root cause (specific shipping service), the corrective action (new carrier upgrade, tracking automation), and the preventive measure (daily INR review SOP).

  4. 4

    Monitor for 30 days

    eBay reviews seller standing monthly; show 30 days of clean shipping data before requesting a restriction lift.
