how much is to much to transfer from paypal to bank?
i know that sending large amounts like $10,000 will raise red flags all over the place.
what if you just paypal to lift your limits past $500 and are able to send as much as you want?
should i transfer small chunks of cash every few days or it doesnt matter how much i transfer in one shot?

They're going to figure it out and limit you if you have thousands in the account and transfer $500 at a time; you think Paypal is stupid? They know what you're doing! Of course, this implies Paypal is leery of you in the first place.
I have one established paypal where I've been transferring $500 at a time for 2 years, sometimes twice a day and I don't even have an active phone # attached.
of course paypal knows how much money i have in the account.
why would they limit me if i send small amounts? iv already confirmed a CC and have no more limits.
before that i was sending out increments of $100 a week.

Might have something to do with what you're selling.

They probably don't think you're a big risk. Paypal has limited people for transferring $2. The OP is worried about getting limited, implying that he thinks his selling activities will draw scrutiny. Then again, maybe he has $30,000 in the account, and that's just foolish.
yes i think everyone sells at a different pace.
my situation is that i was limited to $500 a month, transferring about $100 every week until the month ended...then started anew next month
i just lifted those limits...will sending more send any flags?
ido want whats in the account out of there.
it is less then 3 thousand.
i always alternated what i sent per month. i only had up too $500 per month to transfer.
i would do $100 a week or do $250, $175 and $75. always alternating.
why would it be risky? i mean it sounds like im asking a dumb question, but what would paypal see that is bad in the account?
of course, it is all stealth..butat the same time, im small fish compared to what others transfer.
the items i sell are low risk and cost between $10-$30 at most with some other items barley hitting the $75 mark.
i hate that money is in my paypal. i do liek keeping it for ebay invoices or refunds if nessacary.
That depends on what you do with your account and how pp sees it - I can't guess that...cmon ha.

Don't matter - pp would rather weed out 1000s of small fish to deal with potential fraud in the brewing if you think about it.

If you hate it (and rightfully so I would agree) then consider cajoling customers into paying via other methods...just an idea if your items are low risk and you have good eb cred.
by hate i mean..i hate that its ther=re all the time. im not in a rush to withdrawal it all...but as we know..there are horror stories on here.
bottom line..im not doing anything on paypal or ebay thats suspect.
either way, like you said...everyone account is different.
i set up everything on paypal and ebay so i dont have an issue.
hopefully
Call them first and do the transfer with rep on the phone. Tell them you have never done withdraw so large and wanted a "walk through".... If something goes automated the agent is there to fix it up.
This has worked best for me with large transfers... Oh and make sure to get name and extension if possible. Something happens later then say agent XXXXX helped me do it...

I dont think any certain method is a sure fire winner. Whats worked for me for years is this:
I NEVER withdraw more than 50% of the balance. I ALWAYS wait for my withdraw to go from pending to completed before I do another. I NEVER take out more than $900 in a single withdraw. These are the methods that work for me but certainly doesnt mean it will work for you. I also sell legit stuff and ship in a timely manner.
