Amazon Banned Drop Shipping Accounts

Hey there everyone,
I've heard about and have done a little research about Amazon/eBay Drop Shipping about a year ago when I was laid off from my 9-5 job. I have since found work so I didn't have any need to research any further income sources. Recently there has been talk about getting laid off again so..... Here I am with questions for you Drop Shipping Gurus.

I have viewed a couple of videos on YouTube that claim others have had their Amazon account banned due to taking part in Drop Shipping to eBay. I have also viewed YouTube videos that have stated their eBay accounts have been banned in the same manner.

Is this true? If so, why would they even care? Either way, the sale transaction has occurred and everyone wins...

I do understand that no one can completely rely on advice from a YouTube video - even if the video has a 99% "Like" rating. But I need to know... hopefully before I get laid off.

Thanks in advance!

    I dont think k there will be any problem If you play right . Your account got banned only if your rating is down . So being in this business you need good dropshippers who can deliver on time.

    Thank you for your reply mairsol. I haven't started drop shipping yet, nor has my Amazon account been banned. I am merely trying to weigh the risk of even getting into this type of business to begin with.

    To be more specific, do you know if one's account would be banned if their rating was at 100% but Amazon or eBay discovered that they were utilizing "Drop Shipping"?

    Well i dont know any one in my list whose account got banned due to rating and score .. Its just about there TOS how they work but the best practice is to maintain your quality score and stay upto standards.
