Those emails congradulating you and saying you can now sell more are great , I also just been getting surprise raises. I'd log in no email and just look at my ebay and nice increases.
So far within a week after I received ebay raises than the Paypal hold was also lifted a week or two later
Good job , just remember not to get tricked up and put all your sales in one account which will raise flags and possible 1099 and SS# request.
Take limit raises as a sighn that you are doing well but don't fall into Ebays trap, keep making accounts spread them sales out.
Shark hit it on the nose!!!
Remember now that you have gotten increases, don't go crazy. Just keep nurturing your accounts and keep under the radar...stealth.
I got increased on a 0 feedback account that started selling 3 days ago, from 10 to 20. Account made back in Nov. Ebay is acting weird....
WTF, I got an account I started in Aug 2012. Now has 60 feedback total. 18 selling feedback and I started selling mid April. I have 4.9 and 5.0 DSRs, no disputes and I am still stuck on the 10/$1000. It is really strange. Especially since all my purchases where real stuff not .99 cent USB cords and stuff just to pad feedback. This is the strangest account I have ever had getting the limits raised.
Yea I have over 30 accounts and all getting all kinds of raises some at 7 weeks 0 feedback maybe sold 1 item and most was selling 10 items every month and about 4-5 month range started gettin raises.
And my oldest account that I push to limits everyonth still has no increases , Paypal holds lifted 4 months ago but no limit increases, this account has most feedbacks and sales and no raises.
All my accounts are 100% but ebay definitely has a randomness with raises cause my one account under 2 months old 0 feedback and one sale limit increase and the oldest account highest feedback no increases
Beware, I had resellers of mine who got (non stealth accounts) increase to $5000 selling limits on week one. But 3 of them lost everything, limited PP less than a month later and then suspend e bay. Turns out the sales increase gave them enough to hang themself. Once they made more than $2K in the PP account the problems started. Again these were non stealth accounts so I didn't think it would be a big deal. WRONG... e bay sets you up and PP takes you down.... brutal.
