I believe the new rules start in May.
David, it's funny that you compare them to Amazon - like Amazon, ebay is forcing rules on their customers (for Amazon, it's actually their suppliers) without asking for input, and without regard to what's fair.

If Bill is paying for one of the months store subscriptions, that purchase decision is made partly on volume savings. If ebay is limiting the volume he is allowed to sell, then I think what they are doing may be illegal. Any way you slice it, it's bullshit.
