I was told by a specific location that they would no longer sell the $500 variables to me PERSONALLY because I was deemed as "suspicious" for buying high amounts of USB VGC (Usually $1K-$1.5K per trip, I have only frequented this occasion about 2 times prior).
Luckily, this seems to be isolated to only this store for now since I was able to purchase the usual amount at another store about 15 minutes beforehand.
I imagine that individual shoppers have been banned from individual stores innumerable times in the past for all sorts of inappropriate behavior, from passing out literature on premises to lacking shoes
You were banned because someone higher up thought that buying $1500 worth of GCs without any other purchase was "fishy". Not much you can do about it except put the place on ice for a period of time (say 3-6 months) and then return and buy something other than GCs.
If you are truly banned, they will send you packing without your box of cereal. More likely, they will have forgotten all about you and you can return to your previous behavior with modifications to make it look less "suspicious".
Alternatively, you can just give them the middle finger salute and move on to greener pastures.
