The item will remain in My eBay for at least 60 days, and if the member is reinstated within that time, you can leave Feedback for the member then.<\/p>\n<p>However, if the member&#8217;s registration does not become active again, or if it doesn&#8217;t become active until after 60 days, you will not be able to leave Feedback for this member.<\/p>\n<p>In addition, we don&#8217;t recommend sending payment to a seller if they are not a registered user. If you&#8217;ve sent payment to a seller who is now &#8220;not a registered user&#8221; and you haven&#8217;t received the item after a reasonable period of time, please file an Item Not Received dispute.<\/p>\n<p>If a bidder has become &#8220;no longer a registered user&#8221; since winning your auction, don&#8217;t send them the item until payment has cleared. If they don&#8217;t send payment, you can file an Unpaid Item Dispute to claim your Final Value Fee. Since the buyer is unregistered, you&#8217;ll be able to close the dispute and request a credit immediately.<\/p>\n<p>Note: &#8220;Not a registered user&#8221; can refer to members who have cancelled their membership, or whose membership has been suspended by eBay. For example, a member whose correct contact information is no longer on file with us may have their registration suspended until the new contact information is entered. In either case, the member appears as &#8220;not a registered user&#8221; and is not allowed to buy or sell on eBay. eBay also removes negative and neutral feedback left by members who later become suspended.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>Some eBay users I&#8217;ve tracked have been converted to &#8220;NARU&#8221; status three or more times, and come back as an active user.\u00a0 Troubling to me is the fact that, unless you proactively track the status of other users accounts, there is no evidence of users having been in this status if they are brought back to active.\u00a0 Given that it actually takes substantive bad service or other problems to even reach the point of &#8220;NARU&#8221; status, even temporarily, shouldn&#8217;t eBay user\/members be alerted to the risk one takes in transacting with another user who has already been removed from eBay previously due to problems?<\/p>\n<p>As an example, there was an OPB report in July noting that eBay&#8217;s &#8220;puttieface&#8221; or &#8220;votehillary&#8221; was converted to &#8220;NARU&#8221; status (see <a href=\"http:\/\/www.originalprop.com\/blog\/?p=4460\" target=\"_blank\">eBay&#8217;s &#8220;puttieface&#8221;, &#8220;votehillary&#8221; No Longer a Registered User<\/a>).\u00a0 Subsequently, Mario Sarrica then began selling merchandise via an alternate eBay account (see <a href=\"http:\/\/www.originalprop.com\/blog\/?p=4688\" target=\"_blank\">eBay&#8217;s &#8220;puttieface&#8221;\/&#8221;votehillary&#8221; &#8211; &#8220;spadorcia&#8221;\/&#8221;hoist73\u2033<\/a>).\u00a0 As updated in a Reader Comment in the original article, approximately two weeks later the &#8220;votehillary&#8221; account was again active.<\/p>\n<p>Since being reverted from &#8220;NARU&#8221; back to active user status by eBay in mid-August (less than one month ago), four new negative feedback remarks have been left by &#8220;votehillary&#8221; buyers:<\/p>\n<blockquote><p><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">Buyer suntzuwebster (Aug-21-08 10:43):<\/span><br \/>\n<strong>Returned Fake Item.
