Legit Account - $6500/130 Limit - Auto 30 Day Schedule - Any experience?
Hello,
I have had an eBay account since 2009 and sold my first item early 2010. I only sold a couple of things early on and just started getting into selling as I found a legitimate drop shipper here in the past few weeks. My original limit was $5,000/100 items which I reached. I called them and the guy was pretty nice in explaining why the eBay policies were in place. He asked me what I was looking to sell and whether I had the goods in stock. I told him the truth, and the items I am selling are low risk.
After running it through the system, I was approved for a 30% increase which bumped me to $6,500/130 a month. He said he put me on an automatic 30 day re-evaluation for an increase every month. He also explained that it may not seem like much now, but as long as I keep my account in good standing I will get this every month and in a few months my account would be to a level where I am comfortable because the increases get bigger and bigger as well (up to 100% max increase if you did very well in everything).
He stressed that the selling limits were being imposed on everyone, and it was to maintain quality standards because some sellers tend to get too big (sometimes to fast) and their standards and turn around starts dropping which leads to unhappy customers and an overall worse off eBay experience.
This all makes sense and I completely agree because in my case, I have a 100% legit account and 100% verified PayPal account for many years with a PayPal credit card (good limit) and debit card. I have ran a *significant* amount of money through my PayPal account with no problem in the years.
Now, can anyone that has had similar experience or know any facts tell me if I will get my increase every 30 days as long as my DSR are up to par, I don't get bad feedback, I don't have open cases, and I have good communication with my customers?
I realize there are many, many things that can be sold on eBay that are against their policy that you can make a big buck off of. But I am just looking to make a good income becoming a power seller with high monthly volume. I want to know what the realistic time frame would be to get to this level, all negatives aside.
