eBay restricts you on bids for buying
 

So I just have my 90 day stealth running. I was placing some bids for 1 computer, 1 pad, two gift cards from the same company and 1 gift card from another brand.

Then eBay sends me message that restrict the number of bids on purchasing items. I will go through with all purchase on my card that I will attach soon. Just want to see if anyone came across from this and ever got your account suspended for buying too much. eBay is joke. Now they restrict you on buying. Got to love the system.

Sounds like the sellers buying requirements is the issue, not so much ebay. How many items from one seller are you bidding on?

I am bidding from different sellers at this point. I look at the message again. eBay seems limit new accounts on bidding on items due to potential of nonpayment. I guess a lot of new accounts and spam the stuffings out of auctions and end up no payment. Luckily its whatever at this point. If I win the bids it would be nice. If I lose the bid with 60 cents that sucks.

I guess I went to fast on bidding items o well. I hope that I dont get limited.

Can you post up a copy/paste of the message you received?

I have bidders sometimes tell me ebay wont let them bid and I always thought it was my buyer requirements on those accounts.

Re: eBay restricts you on bids for buying
 

Its not buyer requirements.

Ebay limit the amoubt of items you can bid on at once. Iv had the same on my fully verified legit account in the past. The account was new at the time.

I could try again. Although will ebay restrict your account if I get that message again? Thanks Yankee

@just_smile will ebay limit your account for that? Thanks!

It is a popup or red message when you are bidding?

I was thinking it was an email they sent you.

I will experiment with this today and see if I get it the message.

it was redpop message. No email. Just said basically I was a noob and that they are not allowing to places bids until either the auctions I ended up bidding either end. Planning spend on this account 80-100$ range of buying items to pump it up.

Just place a lot of bids everywhere. The message should pop up. For me placing after 6 different bids on 6 different auctions it pop up. So I had to add one auction to my watch list.

They won't limit your account for it.

Its just a bit of a nuisance if you wish to bid on many items at once.

Re: eBay restricts you on bids for buying
 

Thanks man. ROI on this ebay account is insane. I have to do it to bunch other accounts. So already 1150$ in cost deep. :tears:

Re: eBay restricts you on bids for buying
 

Definately a nuisance.
OP - it will reset though as you make payments for each one you bid and win on.

Re: eBay restricts you on bids for buying
 

Thanks. Never spend so much on something useless like FeeBay.

Re: eBay restricts you on bids for buying
 

There's a limit of unpaid items you can have at one, and bids are also counted as unpaids. So, buy something and you will be able to bid on new items again. In some time, when you will build up a successful buying history, this limitation will go away.

Its the category. They know what you're doing with the giftcards.
