this running slow, is so HARD!! I made two stealth accounts on my own , with a whooping limit of 5/500, both have items posted on them, and had 1 sale--and the buyer gave me great feed back, however, in my eyes 9 other listing spaces wasted on dump stuff---no $ Bought and acct and now babying that till I can post--- don't get me wrong, I am thankful to have listing capabilty but good gosh it will be months before I can list and make what I was!
Is there anything I can do to speed this up?
But so far I beat EBAY! LOL |

How long are you talking here? Has it only been a few days?
you are probably selling items in the wrong category, have you considered changing?

Test things. You have nothing to loose per say other than a small stealth account. I can assure you that listing 1 item and nothing more is not going to get your limits increased very quickly. You need to list to the limits.

Well still.... why would they raise the limit if you have not used the limit you are at?
I don't normally list on an account until it is 30 days or older because this seems to eliminate the mc9999 call in(I have never had one because of listing items)
I usually get at least 20-$2000 within seven days of listing the first item. 30-$3000 and 40-$4000 are more common but seems to be based on how fast I sold and the price of the items.

See like I said, I am still in a waiting mode for another 25 days if I have to wait to my 30 day mark to list

But you already listed and sold an item right?
I thought you were asking what to do to raise your limits? The only way to get increased limits is to sell/list or to get completely lucky.

Also, keep on building accounts, that way this waiting period does not effect you like it is now. You will also be able to test on how fast your main products can be listed. You might be like me in my categories and be able to list anything without an issue. Thye only way to know is to test and see.

I can't call ebay as its stealth--and I don't think they have sellers best interest at heart---I did buy a ready made acct but even he said WAIT, browse, build up cookies--etc..

The best way to be slow and fast at a time - have like 20 accounts, and carousel your stuff around them. Very low activity in each of accounts, distributed risks, and a high total activity. But requires some skills to run so not to mess up everything.
