Awesome limits.

How old is this account?

Wow! Do you even go close to those limits for them to give you such juicy limits?

I just called ebay and my limits were increased from 50/5,000 to 75/40,000. There was no request for docs or verification...quick and painless. Couldn't hurt to give them a ring.

At what point do you prefer to call? And what do you say?

I always get told to request code in the post.

You can call them on the date of your first sale every month to have limits increased. Example, if your first sale was October 20th, you can call on the 20th of every month to see about limit increases.

Last month I called them and was told I needed to talk to the sellers vetting department because I was already at 50/5000 and anything over 5000 needed to go through that department. I was wary of calling, but finally just did it today. Any regular CS rep OR Trust and Safety can increase you to 5000 max. Anything after that and you have to get in touch with the sellers vetting department.

I just tell them I want to see if I am eligible for limit increase...they review the account for positive feedback, etc. and then ask if you are still selling the same items or what your projected sales each month will be. Just talk to them nicely and they will increase you. Going from 50/5000 to 75/40,000 is a big leap, especially on an account not even 5 months old yet.
