Just wait and work on another account. You're already drawing too much attention to yourself by doing that much business in a month.

Many people have reported after they talk to eBay and discuss how much they plan on selling they can raise your limits.

Well in my experince i called over 2 months ago to raise limits. I got suspended. Recently one of my accounts has reached the limit and was asked to call ebay. I ignore it and moved to another accont. I am going to let it sit for awhile and work on my other account.
In my advice ebay just looks at your account more if it stealth account.

I'd rather wait it out so that the account does not get more attention.

The selling limit is killing me. Thinking about calling in for one of my stealths, expecting to get suspended and just paying for the docs to verify ID and lift. Too much $ not being made around the holidays with these limits.

And what if they don't lift it with the docs sent in? Or they take 4 weeks to respond and process it? It'll be more work and you'll have to start from scratch all over. If you have 100 items to sell, use 10 stealth accounts and sell 10 items each.

Much better to spread out over accounts and let the limits expand as feedback comes in. Calling eBay at this point is almost asking to be verified...

Don't call them. High risk. Will be suspended if they find linked to old account.

If you want my advice, don't call.

Make more accounts if you need. But calling eBay will have a representative look at your account and potentially find things that you missed and that will get your account linked and suspended. Not just that account, but possibly all others that they can link or trace to it. You don't need to take my advice, of course.

I would not risk a good account for this by calling them.

8 out of 10 times you will get a limit by calling them on things like this asking to change the rules for you.

If your product is that good then it will do just as good on another good account or two.

DO NOT CALL THEM

The fact is, you have a rock solid account. You could end up with 10 rock solid accounts if you follow stealth. If you push it, and don't be smart, you'll end up with 0 accounts.

I agree not to call them, because they will want ti verify your infos from a national databases. The questions they ask are based on public records. Addresses, past addresses in a multiple choice question.

where your auto loan is from, mortgage infos, past phone numbers.

Most cannot verify infos like this on a stealth acct.

It's best to spread out your sales on as many accts as you can handle.

$500 or 10 items x 10, or x20

after the first month and some feedback they will raise your limits like amazon.

It's always best to just get new accounts made...the docs are great but sometimes hit n miss because of the timing with PP processing everything.

Agreed. I am creating about an account a day to keep up with the selling limits. Also, I found that they are less quick to suspend your account because everyone is now pigeon-holed into these new limits. I think eBay feels that they have a tighter reign on what we are doing. Multiple accounts it the way to go. However, switching between them is time-consuming and annoying. I would love a way to automate the whole process.

There is no way to automate it, if you have say 10 accounts just login to 5 one day and 5 the next.

On some days I login to about 50. Always at least 20 or so.... maybe takes a few hours?
Not including Amazon...
