How Exacly $600 limit works
 

So If you sell 599 will ebay send you pay out? It looks like they are asking ssn when you reach $600. Or if you made 800 maybe they send you 600 and then ask for it?

I’m not sure if they go by the sale amount or the payout amount. But I sold something for $500 got paid and sold another $600 item and then they put hold on my funds and requested full ssn

I think the trigger is close to 600 or maybe 600 then limit comes. I had similar experience. Any one else can verify this info?

Re: How Exacly $600 limit works
 

I got my my 600 request a little after passing 600. Maybe @ 700 or so

So Is it sale amount or the payout amount? lets say I have 1k of sales so I get 50 everyday till 600?

Re: How Exacly $600 limit works
 

It’d have to be gross sale amount.

Where did you get this info? We don't need official version here.

sales

got the notice @ 700 in payments despite most of it being held due to standard 2 week hold.

Re: How Exacly $600 limit works
 

Standard? Can you elaborate on that a little?

Re: How Exacly $600 limit works
 

sorry, don't quote me on that. all I meant is that eBay tends to hold your cash for some period of time on a fresh account until they can confirm successful delivery.

not sure if its 2 weeks exactly, just ball parking it

my point was moreso that its the sales that matter, not the payout, as I've gotten the request on 600+ in sales but virtually no payout yet.

Re: How Exacly $600 limit works
 

Okay cool... thought you were alluding to some standard hold I wasn't aware of.

Re: How Exacly $600 limit works
 

Today limit came to me at 666 in sales. Its confirmed 600 and that's it. Gross sales. I wonder what will happen under 600? will you get your money?

Re: How Exacly $600 limit works
 

My understanding is that when your sales his $600 you get the request

Anything under and you are fine - anything over you need your SSN, EIN or ITIIN

Re: How Exacly $600 limit works
 

you tried it or know some one who did?

Re: How Exacly $600 limit works
 

It's definitely gross sales. What ever number they see you pump on their platform basically

Re: How Exacly $600 limit works
 

It's the broadest possible amount (item price + any S&H fees you charged + any taxes collected) with no deductions for eBay fees, your COGS/S&H costs, discounts/promotions, etc.

If >$600, you're asked for your full tax ID within a few business days.

Re: How Exacly $600 limit works
 

is there a way to stop sales pass this amount automatically ?

Remove your items from sale is going to be the only method right now
