2 accounts 500/25000 selling limit
 

I had 2 accounts 500//25000 ...1 hour later they got suspended ..NO link, I did not even list anything..nothing
Just created it ...left it alone for 1 hour..suspended!!!
Any ideas?

Re: 2 accounts 500/25000 selling limit
 

You didn't give us enough information. If they suspended you , they typically give you a reason

Re: 2 accounts 500/25000 selling limit
 

what they said, is that they are concerned, and remove all the listings ( That I did not even make ) plus not using ebay anymore??!!!
What info you are asking about?

Re: 2 accounts 500/25000 selling limit
 

I would hazzard a guess that it has something to do with the creation method

Re: 2 accounts 500/25000 selling limit
 

What is the reason for the suspension? What steps did you take in making the account? Did you change IP? Use new user accounts on the computer?

Impossible to help you with such limited information.

Re: 2 accounts 500/25000 selling limit
 

if its the IP or creation method HOW i got 500/2500?

and there is no info.,
new hard disk partition , VMware ( only 1 workstation ) ...new fresh IP
i created gmail. firefox ( all add-ons ) disabled
nothing new all as usual

Re: 2 accounts 500/25000 selling limit
 

theres so many possibilities it would be incredibly hard to tell

bots pick up suspicious activity patterns, so if you appear risky... you're a goner

Re: 2 accounts 500/25000 selling limit
 

is it risky to create Ebay account and create seller account>?
That is it?
i think if there is something wrong with the IP I wont get 500/25000 or Am I wrong?!!

Re: 2 accounts 500/25000 selling limit
 

Listing limits are random. It has nothing to do with how you set it up.

It is not risky to create an ebay account or a seller account or a paypal account. If you use 2 IP's, and all different info, there is no reason for you to be linked. If you have not listed anything, there is no reason for ebay to limit you either.

Something seems to be missing here.
Any and all info. Like I said, they typically give a reason. You said they removed non existent listings. No reason?

Re: 2 accounts 500/25000 selling limit
 

that is what I found very strange, they removed items and I did not even list anything yet not even a try to do listing, I have not click on sell..

question, let say I have an IP which used or crap or ..... can I get high limits?
I am just trying to eliminate some factors!!

Re: 2 accounts 500/25000 selling limit
 

This is beyond me. I can't even imagine why this would happen, let alone ebay not giving a reason. Even a stupid reason.

Re: 2 accounts 500/25000 selling limit
 

Was your item risky?
How many items did you list?
Did you use same pics, same descriptions, etc?

Re: 2 accounts 500/25000 selling limit
 

He says he hasn't listed a single thing yet.

Re: 2 accounts 500/25000 selling limit
 

Dude....read the OP's first post before replying......

Forum etiquette 101. :nono:

Re: 2 accounts 500/25000 selling limit
 

Please don't talk to me like I'm some *****ng newbie...been on this forum helping people for a while now...if I misread the OP first thread then *****ng sue me!

Re: 2 accounts 500/25000 selling limit
 

LOL don't take it so personally man....

I know you aren't a n00b. You've given me assistance more than once.

Just saying....someone who's been here this long should know to read before replying to a post. :ranger:

Re: 2 accounts 500/25000 selling limit
 

If you JUST created the ebay account then turned right around and immediately created the sellers account portion, then that's why they suspended your account. I have done that two times instead of waiting, browsing, yadda yadda and they canned my ass within minutes.

Re: 2 accounts 500/25000 selling limit
 

Oh, you're still trolling the forum I see. Thought we had rid ourselves of this kind. Obviously not.

Re: 2 accounts 500/25000 selling limit
 

I really appreciate your help guys...
thank you all...

I found the reason it was something very technical, Networking wise...
again thank you all

Re: 2 accounts 500/25000 selling limit
 

Still the same ****

:FF:

Re: 2 accounts 500/25000 selling limit
 

Although I like you the majority of the time, you sometimes have ridiculous and obnoxious comments like this:doh:

Was the first comment made just for entertainment value? If so add a smiley face or an LOL at least. :yar:

And if not, how about working on YOUR forum etiquette?

Re: 2 accounts 500/25000 selling limit
 

Best to list your steps of account creation and account operation. Be careful what you write intended for other ppl moving forward :)

Re: 2 accounts 500/25000 selling limit
 

And here I thought I had rid myself of you.....but, just like herpes, you flare up inappropriately at the most inconvenient times.

Re: 2 accounts 500/25000 selling limit
 

Yeah, it was meant to be more of a sarcastic jab than a serious insult.

But I was quite serious that one should read the OP's post prior to posting a reply on the thread. :juggle:

Re: 2 accounts 500/25000 selling limit
 

Did you create a personal eBay account or a seller account?

Re: 2 accounts 500/25000 selling limit
 

seller account

Re: 2 accounts 500/25000 selling limit
 

I've always been told to create a personal account so this could be your problem

Re: 2 accounts 500/25000 selling limit
 

I've noticed when I create accounts (and I always do same day seller account creation with 0 browsing) about 10% of new accounts are suspended without any reason.

"Serious security concerns" is their blanket catch-all phrase.

Knowing I create all accounts the same way indicates it might be a manual human review noticing similarities in account creation, i.e. date of account, GV # + Entropay card might give away that they belong to the same person.

Re: 2 accounts 500/25000 selling limit
 

I also use Entropay, you have a valid point,,,, I get suspended after 5 hours or 10 hours, so that is a human review

Re: 2 accounts 500/25000 selling limit
 

GhostOfAmazon , when you create a seller account, after creating Ebay account?

Re: 2 accounts 500/25000 selling limit
 

I've had it happen as early as 2 hours after creation. But never IMMEDIATELY afterwards, which is why I believe it's not a bot, but a real person.

My THEORY is that accounts that are too similar in creation method (including creation date, credit card, email account, etc) are flagged by eBay for manual review, and if the rep doesn't like what he sees, poof, it's gone.

This is a THEORY. We still need more data.

Re: 2 accounts 500/25000 selling limit
 

You just gave me an idea, I will try to make 10 or 15 accounts in the next few hours, and I will post an update

Re: 2 accounts 500/25000 selling limit
 

Awesome! This is the kind of thinking/action that gives us all a MUCH better understanding of how eBay and PayPal work!

Re: 2 accounts 500/25000 selling limit
 

Update first 2 accounts.... survived
10/1000
500/25000

more update on the way

Re: 2 accounts 500/25000 selling limit
 

good job!

sometimes slowing the pace helps

Re: 2 accounts 500/25000 selling limit
 

Please, READ THE THREAD BEFORE POSTING.

He's creating accounts as SELLER accounts day 1, to test what causes the "random" limitations on brand new accounts.

Re: 2 accounts 500/25000 selling limit
 

I did read and understand before I posted

slow is relative, it could simply mean 10 seconds in-between clicks. Don't jump to conclusions :)

Re: 2 accounts 500/25000 selling limit
 

That's the most ridiculous defense I've ever heard.

If you don't want to be misunderstood, be more explicit when you post. Otherwise everyone is going to interpret based on what info you provide, which is pretty much nothing.

This is LIFE advice, not just forum advice. It's free. You're welcome.

Re: 2 accounts 500/25000 selling limit
 

10 accounts are done, all survived, it was the way i was doing the seller account, and timing too

But thank god, all good

Re: 2 accounts 500/25000 selling limit
 

Can you be more specific?

And when were the accounts created? I've had them deleted as late as 24 hours after creation.
