Default Higher than usual limittations?

Hello Folks,
Are any of you guys getting a MUCH higher than usual paypal limitations?

If so, what priced items and are your items varied in prices?
Meaning I seem to be having issues that are not related to tax info but fluctuation in item costs.
So accounts that always sell $100.00 items are fine. Accounts that always sell $500 items are fine. Accounts that sell $30.00 items are fine

Accounts that sell $20.00 items AND $500.00 Items are getting limitted and asking for more info along with proof of business.

Thanks in advance for anyone's input!

I called PayPal and found out what the issue was and got it resolved very quickly.
It was BANNERS and POSTERS that seemed to be far to low value for the item is was for.
Example:
Trek Mountain Bike Banner sold for $20.00 compared to an actual bike selling for many hundreds or more.

Based on this one account I already see what the issue is on the others.

Lesson learned is that items that sell far to low are a red flag to paypal.
The titles compared to the item itself caused these limitations.

I have heard of something similar in the past causing issues with ebay, never paypal as far as i remember.

If you list an item under the market value and it gets flagged then it will be taken down as its suspicious etc

Did they advise how to stop it happening in the future? It would seem a pretty common issue for a lot of items.

I was told a real human being caught it on the one account but I believe it is something newer paypal is experimenting with. It happened to many times in a row.

Pretty much if a name brand that normally sells for $1000.00 sells for $20.00 a problem may occur. I will be extra careful in the future but have learned with a phone call it is a pretty easy fix after a quick doc upload and answering a couple questions.

Also, as for proof of business and invoice request, I have been using, "I am selling stuff I have around the house to make room and money to buy more stuff" and if they ask why do I have so much stuff in this industry I say, "I am avid and passionate about this and buy and trade regularly to keep up with latest and greatest" yada yada yada

It has eliminated the invoice or proof of business so far.
