Listing auctions close to selling limit

[Killed by Ebay]

I am close to my selling limit in terms of $$ but got plenty left in items I can list. I was thinking about throwing up some a few listings by starting them at .99 that will bring my account over the limit by a few hundred dollars when they are all done.

It is an established account with 500+ feedback and has been identity verified a couple years ago after a mc999 but it is still "stealth".

Is this a bad idea?

I've done it many times and have rarely had problems doing it.

With that said, why not use it as an excuse to build up some newer accounts?

OP if you are starting to hit limits so early in the month, then maybe it is a time to diversify and open more stealths.

Working on new accounts, just soaking up all the info before I do....problem is I sell "high risk" high end electronics like game systems and iPhones which probably new accounts won't do me any good at first.

True, but you got to get the new accounts off the ground so you can have them ready for the upcoming buying season.

i always push my limits on UK accounts, I have gone over by hundreds by listing auctions right before the end of the month and it never caused me any issues, show them you need higher limits...

I have done it in the past, over by $2-3K and still fine. I dont try to repeat it.

OP, Get some new accounts going by selling some cheap items first and when the buying season comes you can list your more expensive items.

Only a bad idea if you KNOW that the items you list are high risk/Vero-type/counterfeit items... otherwise, just regular listing and sales would be fine.
