I have not had a limit yet. Been listing on 8 seller accounts with well over 1000.00 each in sales and 12-15 items. :mod: not sure why I am having such good luck but I keep on making more accounts every week just in case. I list right after I create the account with 10-12 items with a 3 day duration.

Is it safe to list 10 items right after you create an account? I thought that we should list slowly. I have newly created stealth accounts and I'm confused whether to start listing already. But I would love to do what you are doing.

things have changed. when they first introduced the 10 item rule they were gradually increasing limits as you received POSITIVE FEEDBACK. This DOES NOT apply anymore. Its very difficult to get feedback from buyers these days anyway. Ebay employees tell buyers that feedback is OPTIONAL but yet we CANT get paid without Potive FEEDBACK INMOST CASES. EBAY SUCKS.
Create more accounts and if you stay away from vero (name brand) you can prosper.
if you list name brand items you will still be looked at closer and limited at some point soon because you are more high risk in their eyes.
im creating new accounts at all times. More importantly selling on other venues and away from ebay. I love cash instead of paypal. Your local consignment stores are doing well because of the economy. try them. screw paypal and ebay. also try flea markets. it works.

I normally stay around 2-3 items per day but I havent had any issues since the 10 item rule. They figure you cant do too much damage with just 10 items anyway Im guessing.

yes it helps if you buy something. build feedback anyway you can...but sell your first item so you can get the ball rolling and look like a seller.

What is required to lift this in the verifcation part? Also does this go away after a few solid months with good feedback, or will you have to request it?

I have been lucky enough to sell a few items with no limits but then after few I make a few hundred dollars I get the limits. how the heck did you accomplish that?
you really are invisible to them..lol

my account is more about 100 days old; still have 100 or $5000 limit.

When the hell will Ebay remove the limit??


The ebay site says account limit will be removed after 90 day; i have 100% feedback.

At least you can list 100 items. It's been 101 days since my first item sold and I'm still limited to 10 items. I have 100% feedback as well.

Whoa. What's the deal!? I thought after 90 days the limit gets lifted? I don't want to wait 90 days and not get the limit lifted. Is there a different process or am I missing something?

I always list 10 or more items after I create the seller account. I use a 3 day duration and sell $500.00 right away after or before the 3 days. I then buy a couple of things I need to gain feedback, but even with accounts that have zero still after selling more then 10 items, and more then $500.00 in sales I can keep on going with no limits being counted to the account and its shown in myebay that nothing has counted to my account/accounts.

I am using 10 this month, so I have about $5000.00 in sales. Then this week 10 more so I can get another $5000.00 next month and now I will have the ability to rotate these accounts. 5 will have reached the monthly limit of money I can withdraw but the others are fresh for the month and when these new ones get done the old ones are ready to go again.

I am using 2 other accounts that I am building up for spring/summer sales using 2 merchant accounts also, not even taking Papal and those are fine. It must be ebay motors is not limited to this restriction.

what if the items doesnt sell..mine didnt sell and they wont let me relist. And after the 90 days, do they automatically lift or do u still have to send a request?

Any uk sellers still having this issue on accounts created in january?

No issues at my end.

it could also be how you have your paypal verifed i have 100 selling limit with no feedback or 5k limit and i belive thats becuase i have a bank account linked to my account if you only have a cc or vcc it is lower in the us anyway :ranger:

So if I verify my Paypal by adding a bank account and social security number etc.. My 10 item/$500.00 limit will increase to a 5k limit!???

I doubt that it's about how the PayPal account is verified, but more likely about the type of items or categories you sell in. I have one account that was selling sewing items and I got increased from 10 to at least 500, possibly more, after 90 days.

Yeah but he said he has a ebay account with 0 feedback and a 5k/100 item per month limit. So would that verified paypal do the trick to raise the 10 limit/500 per month limit?

I don't think so, I've got a couple verified paypals with limits and 1 non-verified with no limits.

it also depends what bank account you use i use a special kind where i get instant verification :)

arghhhh i can only sell 3 video games per month.

On a couple of my ebay accounts it says,
You can sell up to 100 items or up to $5,000.00 per month, whichever comes first, but when i list 10 to 11 items and sale them it says my limit is up for the month,Should i contact ebay over this or just keep quiet on the subject,
Thanks

contact ebay i mean there really isnt anything they can do to you if its there mistake you have nothing to lose just dont seem nervous and have all your info ready just in case :) :grin:
