The most insane selling limits increas ever?
 

I don't usually care much about selling limits as I spread my sales over so many accounts, but this one just hit my eye. Apparently it was increased today. This account had been selling for about 4 months now, usually 18-20 items per month, always close to the limit. I had a 20 items limit. Most buyers were non-paying bidders in the past 2 months, though ...and even out of about 40 items successfully sold I only got 4 positive feedback. Yes, 4 positive feedback received in 3 months of sales.

Today, my limit was increased from 20 to:

What the f.... :humble:

Holy ****!! I was happy today because mine went from 25 and £750 to 70 and £1700!!

It seems that one of the ebay reps had a very berry merry christmas :p

even if i have high limit, i will still sell 10-50 a month..... to avoid paypal tax id request..

You most likely received only 4 feedback due to the Christmas season, when people are less likely to leave feedback. Perhaps eBay saw that you were a good seller and provided fast shipping throughout the holiday season when they are the most uptight, and decided to reward you. Either way, I wouldn't expect selling limits to increase that much. Congrats, keep up the good work. Now become rich. :)

Good news Im just.
Makes a refreshing change from the "EB just dumped on my lawn thread"

Maybe they saw the picture of the "Dear Leader" and got scared into giving you a huge increase.

Yeah, it's really weird to go from 20 to 1500 while only having received 4 feedback. The account is fully stealth too. If they only knoew.

:brushteeth:

Wow!

You must have really done something right.

Check any of your other accounts?

Amazing.

I would sell up to a comfy amount and let it sit for a while selling only a few items here and there.

I wish ebay can give me some selling increases. Most of my accounts are still stuck at 10-20 selling limits. Maybe Sandy can "give" me some of hers, hahaha.

you lucky fecker!! lol

I started it... lol

You have been such a good friend and a technical help to me when I needed it I would in a minute.

i thanked him believing he would send me a private PM telling ME his secrets!!!

:thumb::thumb:

Sandy!!!!!

I think that whole process is automated. I doubt that eBay has people checking each and every account and raises the limits manually. I don't even see any limits on most of my accounts.

damn and here I am stuck with 10/1000 on every new stealth account lol... have you guys automatically gotten an increase in selling limits after three months without requesting?

Why Thank you so much, I am still waiting on that NFCU answer from them. The person is on vacation who does non military membership at my local branch.

I see a different angle... As much as we like to think OP has some mystical powers (and yet he might:hail:), I think this has something to do with eb trying to grease the skids for more selling activity. Seems to me they have tightened the screws so much last few months - now their bean-counters are telling them they need more listings to drive sales up again. Hence, raising limits as quickly as possible on low-risk accounts. As they say, `follow the money`...

do you buy accounts or create your own?
Thank you

I always create my own :)

@imjustme : hi, your account in US or other country?
