If you read in full, actually several times, the threads on 0/0 limits you will get many tips and clues on how to stream line your process and have it be successful 9 out of 10 times.

I know you are in CA so I am not sure what makes it different for you, but for USA I am a firm believer, name must match the zip code and a real carrier phone number. No free services. HOPE THAT HELPS!

yeah, i ve done just exactly that (read this LONG thread like 10 times), and yes indeed, there is indeed alot of bits of info that is very valuable for stealth. thanks everyone for the great input!

ok, back to work!

Been getting many 5/500 accounts lately.. Is ebay handing more of those often now? What can be triggering this? I am using tracfone , name matches zip code , using tethering from my iPhone device. Zip code match address on one vanilla card.

this thread is long, but there are people that have posted step by step methods with screen shots on how to get 10/1000. I've used their methods and they worked for me. Just need to read.

Check page 9 of this thread.

[livelifewild]

Yes, just take the time to read and learn what you can.

I actually just made a few two days ago and 3 today. Got mostly 5/500 and 10/1000.

I actually got one that did not say any selling limits at all, the numbers where just not there. Even though I did make a successful listing. Soooo I wonder if that mean I am "without limits" I know technically all accounts have some sort of limits. But as far as showing the 5/500, 10/1000 so on its not there.

Any thoughts?

For those with 5/500, how is your best match search results? I once had 10/500, and they would put me all the way on the bottom.

I did an experiment testing out phone services.

0/5 google voice
0/5 paid forwarding service
10/10 tracfone

I all most always get the MC999 on the first item I list on a new account.
A few times it has happened on the second listing but most times it will always be the first.

How long do you wait before listing?

I wait between 3-4 weeks then post a cheap item from around home, have a closet full...I then wait till I get paid and the money is cleared. Let the money sit in paypal and then list another item. I will continue to do that until my limits are raised and then proceed to slowly ad in my regular items.

Before I start to make any real money on my accounts and before I start to withdraw regularly I will buy a few items using that stealth paypal account.

Now I am by know means a expert at any of this, BUT I have noticed and I do believe that this setup I use gives a lot of credibility to my accounts.

I turn it into a seller without listing anything. I usually wait 3-4 days with browsing and bidding. After that I list a low risk item.

This thread could be a mini ebook

Just curious if this 0/0 has settled down after holidays yet ? are you guys still getting 5/5 or 0/0 any more ?

[pr0wake]

5/500's popularity is greatly increasing

[livelifewild]

Ya it definitely is. I made another 10 accounts over the last 2 weeks, all but one was 5/500
Sooo I think that is a new permanent thing. I did notice though a few accounts I made about 45 days ago have gotten their limits lifted to either 20 or 30 items a months. So it seems like they changed the extremely long wait time for the increase. As long as you maintain good account standings and feedback, shipping time, no complaints so on you get your limits lifted pretty quickly.

[aking]

Yea my 5/500 got increased pretty quickly, like 2-3 weeks after I made the account.

[ljakers]

Yes, I got 5/500 after 30 days and feedback (5) also after buying trinkets.

[Appletvjailbreak]

I feel like the initial limit as been lower, but the increases have come at a faster rate. I have one account that has been increased 3x already and have only 14 items total with 9 feedback. Started at 10..up to 180.
