Is it free to open an eBay account?
Although eBay registration is free, selling an item isn’t. You have to pay eBay a fee for every item you list for sale, and for every item you actually sell. You don’t have to pay eBay when you buy an item; fees are charged exclusively to sellers.

Can you open a new eBay account if your account has been suspended?
