Activity: 0% Longevity: 65% | | When/How do my selling limits automatically go up without having to call eBay?
Hi,
I recently got a bump in the amount of money ebay is allowing me to earn per month. I did not contact them to ask for higher selling limits but now I need a bump in how many items I want to sell per month.
What are their benchmarks in order for them to automatically bump the amount of items I sell per month? I have 100% feedback, over 150 feedback given, 10 year old account, 40+ feedbacks given in this last month.
I do not want to have to call them up to ask for a increase in selling limits.
I was just wondering if anyone knows how or when their system will automatically do it.
Thanks for any help.

The forum is widely against calling for limit increase, I did it once and got the consequences and will never do it again.

It is different for every account. Some get it in 30 day, some 3 months or a year.
There is no definite answer, but it usually happens around the 20th of the month when your account is evaluated.

Limits will be increased on the 1st of the month but will be evaluated on the 20th. It's a waiting game... if you need to sell more open more accounts

Not in the 30+ accounts I have they don't. I get MC999 on the first of the month with limit increases.

There is no real accurate answer for your question...if you need to sell more, open more accounts, you'll be better off in the long run that way anyway.
Always better to have many baskets with a few eggs in each, than 1 with all the eggs in it.

Spread your sales, you can always open up more accounts. Then you will have an army of high limit accounts

Is the review on the 20th done by a person or a bot?

It's more than a bot...it's a System.

In the end you never want to anger, "the bot(s)", the system, or the kangaroos. Keep all 3 happy and making some $$$$.

Starts off as a bot.

What are the pitfalls of calling in the request? I did half a year ago and they gave me a huge bump (after telling them I deserve it) on the spot.

Basically call at your own risk. If you think you can BS them good enough and you have nothing in your account that will raise flags, go for it but be ready to pay the price.

Forum on the whole recommends avoiding calling in.
this is to prevent the consequences that occur.
Suggest you do a heap of reading to find out all the good info you must know to beat ebay.
Good Luck
