It all seems like a lot of drymounting work to track down and ban people flipping $50 posters. Then again, that could be why they’re not very good at it.

Shopify analytics and Google analytics will likely assign a browser user with an identifier for tracking and other purposes (ie a cookie). It can probably be used to identify previous customers whether they use a different address/billing or not. They're probably not tracking IP address.

BISHALINI isn't my actual last name, nor is ALDO my actual first name. AND .. Yes, I understand that I am banned lol But my wife actually does have a different last name... or at least she uses her maiden name on her credit card. I think the refund on her order wasn't related to me...surprisingly. And if that's the case, they aren't tracking IPs.

I may be in the minority, but I've found this story pretty interesting.

I remember reading Shep's policy on canceling orders due to the growing prevalence of flipping for profit some time ago, and have since wondered how they're able to make that correlation. As far as I understand, all they can access is an ebay username and that user's general location (if that is even accurate). So how do they know for certain which username is associated with any given email address? The only thing I can think of is if they actually purchase the item and can then confirm both an email and physical address. What else am I missing?

Your missing the part where the people that buy the print rat out the seller.

^ luls. Most likely the most common way to be added to the list.

I actually don't think they are checking IPs. I'll let you know next drop... lol

It would be a big error in judgement if they did. So, do you have a theory as to why they cancelled your wife's order?

They wrote back saying that she had multiple orders on the a limited print. Nothing about anything related to me... unless they were just giving me a bullshit to cancel the order with my wife's name and info.

You know that Obey peruses this forum, right?

[bubbie]

Luls. Was going to say just that.

And thus Aldo Bishalini Esq. joins the ranks of the permanently banned.
