Why some account on ebay limit high, some small?

What ebay is the decision based on?

Some account 20/250, 50/700, 70/3500

Re: Why some account on ebay limit high, some small
 

A lot depends on the setup of the account passing security flags...the exact algorithms are probably only found out via trial and error

Re: Why some account on ebay limit high, some small
 

It also depends on wether the account is personal or business, business accounts generally get their initial selling limits higher than personal ones.

Re: Why some account on ebay limit high, some small
 

A huge number of factors. Limits can be anything from 10 items to 50k items on a new ebay

There isn't any one thing that determine that you have to score highly in all their criteria to get the highest limits

Re: Why some account on ebay limit high, some small
 

Like others said it depends on what you used to set the account up. Datacenter IP, voip number, antidetect browser etc will give you lower limits

Post your steps on account creation for ppl to comment and provide insight

Re: Why some account on ebay limit high, some small
 

Bro there is actually a trick on how to get big selling limit my friend shared it with me. If you wait just 1 month (30 days) from when you registered your new eBay. Then after this time you register it as a seller you would get massive limit.

My bro in US gets $50k selling limit doing this bro. I tried it on uk and to my amazement it worked bro lol but wasn’t 50k more like £38k selling limit.

Re: Why some account on ebay limit high, some small
 

This is very useful information. I will try it. Thanks for sharing!

Re: Why some account on ebay limit high, some small
 

No problem brother :)

Re: Why some account on ebay limit high, some small
 

And when you did this, it's 100% you get the high limits ? Over and over again?

Re: Why some account on ebay limit high, some small
 

Yes waiting 30+ days will give you higher limit.

Re: Why some account on ebay limit high, some small
 

High limits are good but you still will need to warm the account up.
I have always thought high limits do not matter. If you warm up the account right your limits will increase naturally or you can ask and they will upgrade.
Anyone selling 50k on a new account will get it shut down.

Re: Why some account on ebay limit high, some small
 

^^^ this.

See lower limits as a good way to grow an account naturally and an enforced defense against attracting unwanted attention.

Re: Why some account on ebay limit high, some small
 

Wrong you don’t have to warm/heat any account up brother. You just let it sit in the background for 30 days then turn to seller for bigger limits.

What this does bro is it also allows you to list an item straight away by not receiving that dreaded reactivate your eBay account email from eBay.

Try it you will be amazed. Since I been doing this I been listing much higher end products in my business now.

Re: Why some account on ebay limit high, some small
 

So you are telling me that after 30 days you can list to the max and sell the max and not get shut down or that eBay does not investigate the account?

Re: Why some account on ebay limit high, some small
 

You're missing the point, they're rightly saying that high initial allowances can be the devil in disguise. Go big too quickly and you'll almost certainly get suspended pending investigation.

On a stealth account this could spell the end before you've even started.

Re: Why some account on ebay limit high, some small
 

I would wait for others to reply

There are very experienced members in here...
trusted people which are on this forum since years

Re: Why some account on ebay limit high, some small
 

It depends on what you sell brother. I sell products ranging from £50 to £600 shipping all over the world. The plus for me is I can list a product for this price and not worry about a message from eBay to inform me of reactivate your account. I have some back ups as I don’t put all eggs in one basket and focus on one account.

If I sell £600 product bro I would wait about a week to sell again on same account if it’s lower I can list another one once it’s sold.

Re: Why some account on ebay limit high, some small
 

Yup happens all the time brother. I didn’t know about it until a friend told me but try it always works.

Re: Why some account on ebay limit high, some small
 

Yes I have been here years too.
I know from experience if you list to much too fast you will get shut down.

Re: Why some account on ebay limit high, some small
 

You are missing my point.
So you sell £600 item once a week.
£600x4 is £2400 so a £50k limit is wasted.
I am trying to say that by warming up the account you will have a longer lasting account.

Re: Why some account on ebay limit high, some small
 

Sorry bro but you are talking nonsense warming account up for what exactly? Lol I already have long lasting accounts brother without warning them up lol

Re: Why some account on ebay limit high, some small
 

I will have to bow to your knowledge then.

Re: Why some account on ebay limit high, some small
 

I doubt you can do this safely without slowly ramping up sales...going gungho so quickly feels off

Re: Why some account on ebay limit high, some small
 

That was exactly the point I was trying to say.
I have always went slowly slowly and it’s works well for me.

Re: Why some account on ebay limit high, some small
 

Over years of experimenting, I found a way to consistently get high limit accounts. I dont even bother to look at limits but its somewhere in the range of 500 / 5k / 50k items usually. Honestly just trial and error and I dont mean to be a dick, but its not something I would share here since whenever I asked on this forum people were always super secretive about it. In any case, its pretty straightforward once you get the hang of it.

I did get a really odd limit recently of 16 items though, and I have no idea why. Yes, 16. Not 5, not 10. But "16" which is probably the strangest limit Ive ever been granted. Oh well.

I do have some older accounts with 5 item limits which is annoying since seller limit increases dont come as automatically for me as they used to, not to mention that calling in for me literally results in a 100% ban rate (vs before when it was never). But its also worth noting like everyone else has said that just because you have a high limit doesnt mean you can start selling guns-ho. Still gotta ramp up esp if its a new account

Re: Why some account on ebay limit high, some small
 

I find this is only kinda true for much older accounts. Like accounts I created many years ago and simply never got around to using them, and/or only sold a few items on them then forgot about the account until today.

Re: Why some account on ebay limit high, some small
 

This can happen if you require sign in and get “new device” email when you convert to seller

Re: Why some account on ebay limit high, some small
 

hi,very useful post, I always gets account suspended or reactivated when registering seller account but never waited 30 days, do you ever get account suspended if register after 30 days or is it always accounts go smooth after registering 30 days. will highly appreciate your reply.
thanks

Re: Why some account on ebay limit high, some small
 

Zero outside of 30 days brother meaning my first listing is 100% successful.

Prob 9/10 if sellers created before 30 days. Listing will get instant suspension or that reactive email message which is basically a suspension anyway.

Re: Why some account on ebay limit high, some small
 

Nice breakdown

Re: Why some account on ebay limit high, some small

Selling slowly, get good feedback, and watch the account grow :thumb:

Re: Why some account on ebay limit high, some small
 

You’re welcome brother happy I could help you.

Re: Why some account on ebay limit high, some small
 

Yep I got loads of accounts like this brother lol

Re: Why some account on ebay limit high, some small
 

why i create the uk ebay person account always dead within 24 r,but i create the us is works well

Re: Why some account on ebay limit high, some small
 

This is my issue rn
I also think security is higher during holiday season.

Im hoping after 30 days the accounts im aging wont get suspended or reactivate email after registering to seller

im pretty sure my set up is good. pretty experienced in stealth but lately cant get past this reactivate/suspension headache

Re: Why some account on ebay limit high, some small
 

What are you listing as first item? Auction or buy now? Do you get new sign on email right before registering as seller?

Re: Why some account on ebay limit high, some small
 

I always get new device signed in even if i am on same user account, browser, cookies, etc


First item i just do something low risk like a book, pencil, something small anywhere from $5 - $29
