I was working for a company that sold lots of stuff on ebay when the ban happened. In a nutshell, the german government (very very restrictive on any of that stuff) was going to block ebay completely in their country. I'm pretty sure there was a german ebay at the time which was pretty profitable for them.
While politics is always in the background, that was the immediate reason for the ban in the first place which was in the very early 2000s.
