Update...got an email from eBay around 7p Pacific:

" Hello brokeninfinity, We're pleased to let you know that your account is reinstated.

If you had any listings that were removed when the account was suspended, we've restored those listings... "

Perhaps this discussion caught an eBay-er's attention, and if that was you, thank you for helping out. And thank you HN for helping call attention to my case.

That said, it shouldn't take this sort of attention for eBay to do the right thing. My point stands that eBay inappropriately suspending accounts without explanation or hope of appeal is not ok. And the email reinstating my account did not contain an apology or an explanation of what went wrong, so while I appreciate it, it's not enough. eBay needs to stop treating people this way.
