Call ebay for limit increase
 

Hi, I plan to call ebay for a limit increase.
For now I only can sell 10 items on my stealth account.
Is that ok to call for limite increase even I didn't sell anything yet?
Also, what's the best time to call them?
Thanks.

This is generally not advised on a new account, especially one with no prior selling history.

Just let the limits increase on their own. Is there any harm doing that?

In the meantime, get cracking on creating more accounts to spread out your sales.

I have been getting 10-$500 accounts upgrade to 100-$5000 after one month only selling a or 2 items, just make sure they have tracking uploaded. This is with no feedback either.

I called ebay and they increased mine to $2500/50 Items. The lady tried to verify my information (name and address) with a series of questions that only I would know the answer to. I almost hung up because I figured there was no way out of that one or she was going to ask me questions that I knew nothing about but then she said she couldn't find anything on my name and asked if there was maybe another address I lived at previously. I said No and then she just sent a code to my phone to verify the code and then she raised the limits. They also put a risk flag on my account because I never listed anything before or had any feedback. So basically everything I listed took 24 hours to show up in the search and of course the 21 day hold on funds. It's just too risky. I'd take everyone else's advice and just let it mature naturally. Also paypal immediately wanted me to submit a photo ID after selling my second item.
