A sole trader cannot sell shares because the business is owned and operated by a single individual, making it a personal enterprise rather than a separate legal entity. In contrast, companies can issue shares to raise capital, as they have multiple owners (shareholders) and distinct legal status. Sole traders retain all profits and liabilities personally, so they do not have the structure required to sell ownership stakes through shares.

An eBay account is not inherently a sole trader; rather, it is a platform that allows individuals or businesses, including sole traders, to sell goods and services. A sole trader is a specific legal business structure where an individual operates their business independently. If someone operates an eBay account solely for their own business activities without forming a separate legal entity, they can be considered a sole trader. However, the eBay account itself is just a tool for selling, not a business entity.
