PlayStation 5
 

I’m trying to list the PlayStation 5 and getting some error that there’s a limit to list PS5 on unverified account...

It’s a new account and no sales or feedback yet, is this why it’s unverified?

Anyway around this restriction?

Re: PlayStation 5
 

Listing a PS5 on a fresh account? That's a little silly lol

You're opening yourself to either being banned or scammed since the account has 0 feedback.

Re: PlayStation 5
 

There's a limit because they don't want people trying to list a ****load and not actually have the product on hand.

Re: PlayStation 5
 

If you had an unlimited eBay account you could list a PlayStation 5 no problems at all with 0 seller feedback.

Re: PlayStation 5
 

yea but the OP obviously doesn't. use common sense

Re: PlayStation 5
 

Selling limits are not related to the issue the poster is facing it is a category limitation that he has got on his new account which prohibits high risk items like PlayStation 5s from being listed without a good track record

Re: PlayStation 5
 

The only way around this, is to list it in an alternative fashion. Play with the title until it lets you list it. You very well may need to just say Playstation. and then later put the #5 as a keyword. etc.. may get less visibility, but it's how i sold my x box series x units as presales

Re: PlayStation 5
 

It's so dangerous to sell a PS5 in general.

Why not try local sales like craigslist or so?

Re: PlayStation 5
 

Too many people trying this now, I've received a few messages from people wanting to sell ps5s on new accounts

which is exactly why ebay blocks it

Re: PlayStation 5
 

And then say " why nobody has no 21 day hold accounts" well durr because some scammer would sell 25 ps5s and steal the 20 grand.. I must piss people off when i tell them, only really scammers care about no 21 day hold. But, i do get the cash flow aspect of it. I was once paycheck to paycheck.

I don’t know why a lot of my comments keep getting removed on this forum as they are valid and help people struggling to get back on eBay.

We have this op here who is struggling to sell a PlayStation 5 and I know how he can sell a PlayStation 5 on a new account but for some reason my comment gets removed. I know a lot about eBay not everything but a lot and would really appreciate the mods not removing my comments as I only offer good value here. Thank you and happy new year.

Re: PlayStation 5
 

One comment got removed in which you pretty much just repeated the last thing you said near enough word for word.

I will reply to it in the same way I replied to your last comment saying the exact same incorrect information

'Selling limits are not related to the issue the poster is facing it is a category limitation that he has got on his new account which prohibits high risk items like PlayStation 5s from being listed without a good track record'

Having an eBay without selling limits will not fix that.

Re: PlayStation 5
 

People selling PS5 and Xbox Series X have been getting Robbed from Craigslist, and other websites.

Re: PlayStation 5
 

That doesn't happen frequently, if you're worried, bring a few friends with you and take the cash first before taking the PS5 out of the car

Re: PlayStation 5
 

If you have an unlimited selling account you don’t have any category limitation issues I should know as i have an unlimited selling account and it was 0 feedback and I could list in any category I wanted to.

New PayPal which was new linked to the account had no 21 day holds no limits nothing because once you have an unlimited seller account if it’s 0 feedback or 100000 feedback you have no category limitations on the account which proved my point op would be able to list a PlayStation 5 on a new unlimited account with no issues.

Re: PlayStation 5
 

That’s interesting what you saying however the account I was trying to list it on is actually an unlimited account I purchased on this forum. It seams to be a category/item limitation not a selling limitation like others mentioned.

Have you actually tried to list a PS5 on your own unlimited account and it passed?

Re: PlayStation 5
 

Things like PS5/Xbox X/new iPhone have their own category limits

Even long standing sellers can sometimes only list 1 or 2.

eBay has had that policy for years

Re: PlayStation 5
 

No but I have listed expensive items in “risky categories” as people quote and have no issues. I don’t have a PS5 to sell or list but If I did have a PS5 to list I know it will list with no issues it’s only what £500 it’s nothing really.

But reason I know this is I’ve seen tested unlimited accounts list a set of branded headphones for $200,000 on a 1 day old eBay account just to see if it would list for that much and guess what it listed.

I’m sorry to hear your having issues with trying to list it.

I really want to go and get a PS5 and just list it now I’ll check them on eBay after I’ve wrote this and see how other sellers are getting on as I’m pretty sure a lot of sellers would be selling this item no problem at all but I’ll check now.

Re: PlayStation 5
 

Just checked on eBay uk and loads of items are up for sale selling PlayStation 5s. So I’m a million percent confident I could list one and have no issues.

What’s your set up on your account if you don’t mind me asking?

Here's a screenshot of the error im getting

Re: PlayStation 5
 

Is your unlimited account also the same as what is being sold here on this forum? can you try to list one (for $5k so nobody will buy it) and see if it goes true..

Re: PlayStation 5
 

Is your account below standard and is it not verified if so then yes you will get account limitations for this.

If your fully verified and are above standard then you wouldnt have the issue of listing a PS5 or if you used a new account it wouldn’t allow you to list it either.

Bottom line is you need to be fully verified, above standard and have an unlimited account and you can list pretty much what you want then.
