Since you purchased the account, what exactly have you done with it? No one will be able to pinpoint the issue if you are vague.

Have you tried contacting the seller?

Welcome to the forums yogobro298 - 500 as an initial incoming amount can be considered as high amount and risky

500 to high you need to start slowly low value items and let account mature build up trust 10-20 small amounts 500 on brand new account you are under the radar right away

I'm confused,I thought new accounts get limitation around 1k.Also the stealth guide I read said you get limited when you receive a large sum.I didn't think 500 was that large,If that's the case whats a good sweet spot? The stealth guide I read left that vague.I know large amounts but what qualifies as large? 400-300? Sorruz English is my second language maybe I misinterpreted something?

Wat $10? I need at list 500. It's weird because a buddy of mine had 640 sent to him in small amounts around 300 each and wasn't limited.

I think the idea is to have multiple accounts running.

Default Re: So...what did I do wrong?

The basic principle of eBay/PayPal accounts (whether you made it yourself, or bought it from here) is to start slow.

Ideally you want to sell "low risk" items, at a "slow pace", and ensure the "value of each item doesn't exceed around £10".

Once you sell a few, build some positive feedback, then you can begin to speed up the pace of sales, and their respective value, i.e. once you hit 10 positive feedback from sales, you can consider doubling the value of items from £10 to £20... and so on.

The goal is to build a rapport with eBay/PayPal as you go along. When you sell too much, too quick, they deem you too high risk and usually limit you. Some limitations are easily recovered from, others aren't (depending on the level of risk you pose).

If you feel you need to speed up sales quicker, then the only workaround is spreading those sales over multiple accounts.

P.S. There are many more factors to consider, i.e. where your selling, who is paying you etc. that all contributes to a limitation, but the advice given above should be taken as a general guideline. More importantly, it works!
