10 items month/1000 selling help
 

so I have a account with a selling limit of 10/1000 month..this really sucks!
if I listed more than 1 item in one listing, such as 2 pairs of pants, etc. is that risky? also if i list say 10 $50 items is that bad?Or should I be sticking to boring $5 items? Thanks in advance.

Welcome to the rough world of limits.

You need to list something normal for your first item like a book or something you have around and then wait 1 to 2 days and then list whatever you wanna sell.

I've been curious about something along these lines since I am considering purchasing an account on here. How long or should I say, how old does an account need to be before you do not have to deal with the whole $5000 limit/100 items per month? Additionally, how old does an account have to be to even bypass the 10 item/$500 limit?

-Thx

2nd chance offer is awesome for bypassing limits if you have more than one. im on the 10/1000 plan since my accounts are new, but 1 account has sold 13/1700 and the other is 16/2100. im told that this will help after the 90 day review too.

The 10 or 100 item limit is passed after 30 days and mostly after 60 days. After 90 days its a gonner for sure and your account is increased if you have no account problems.

I see. Does the number of days refer to "days being a seller" or "days being a member?" I was just curious since I was considering purchasing a buyer account that was 9 months and older and converting it into a seller account...

-Thx

Thanks! I'm sure there were others who were wondering about that as well.:thumb:

I'm pretty sure it's after you list your first item ( or after you sell your first item ), 90 days from that point.

Buying a 9 months old buyer account, will not get you past those limits.

so if my first listing is a book, they will allow 100/5000?

No. You will have to relax on the account for a little sell and buy low risk items then start slipping in what you really want to sell!

I actually made an account (before stealth) on my own and it was a made up name/addy, and was started with 100/5000 im trying to figure how to replicate that, what did I do to make that happen?

I know my first item was a window motor for a car, and the paypal account was verified but other then that not sure what was so special about that account to get that, any ideas? I'd like to replicate that

No it is from when you list your first item for sale.

When you list your first item - sigh Cardo beat me to the point.

I usually count 90 days from the first day of listing an item.

BUT

Also have got a couple 90 days from the first date of SELLING an item.
