Hello ******
To help you be a successful seller and ensure a safe experience on eBay, we sometimes change limits on accounts. Account limits allow us to learn about your selling activity and to make sure you're adhering to our selling practices policy and performance standards. Limits vary by seller and can change over time.

You can now sell up to 400 items monthly and up to $8500.0 monthly. If you currently have more items (active items for sale and sold items) this month than your limits allow, you should reduce the number of listings you have on the site. Any listings that place you over your current limits may be automatically removed.

Here is the Third email I has received today!!!

Why wait? List more now.

lol

Congratz OP - quite the step up - keep up good operations

[Dmshark25]

Great Job, sometimes u get lucky like this, but just be-careful, I had a couple accounts like the one u have now, get several raises and the accounts were only 6-8 weeks old

Don't push the limits right away, even though they are telling u to sell more, don't push the limits right away, ease your sales up gradually

[zl138453]

one of my account almost 5 month, but still keep 10 item per month, bad luck

[pokerpro]

I have 5 accounts that are 90 days and still at 10/1000, but this week I got a 6 week old account raised to 30/3000...it is soooooo random the way they make these raises.

congrats OP!

What is the right arrow???

[vogeltron]

Congrats, with Stealth though. I never put the ball on the Roulette wheel by calling in. Some people like to take more risk than others. I have made a living with regards to eB/PP playing it safe.

[plumsake2]

wow nice. Big congrats to you!
but yeah just be careful with it and don't suddenly list many more items than usual or you'll put the account at risk.

It is a copy and paste of the sellers screen and "Right Arrow" is a image that was lost and converted back to code per say.

The ebay account limits are just weird......

[r00tk3y]

I dont even like calling on my real account lol.

[bamb1boy]

What questions did they ask? I called and they said my account was almost ready for higher limits and to call them back on a specific day (this day is the end of my 90 day probation) should I call or wait? She said my selling pattern was phenomenal btw

[sax4]

I call to increase limits quite a bit. I make a listing with something quaint and that won't sell, then I say hey I'm starting to sell such items and they give me an increase

[aniseed]

My oldest stealth was on about 500 limits, hardly used, then stuck on a few items totaling all 500 quantity, and they raised it to 1000, so a week later I upped to 1000, next day they raised me to 2000, a week later same again now its on 3000.
Account is nearly 2 years old. Have another 1 on 300 limits, another two on 100, and several 30's and 10's waiting to build up.
Shows how worthwhile it is having several accounts aging in the background.

I have never phoned up once. I have never bought anything off them.

Open account (as business), wait a week, list 10 auctions a month till it goes up to 30. Keep listing 30 auctions with a few buy it nows each month, should go up to 100. Then as you sell safe items it goes up and up. The ones that go up the fastest are the ones I max out.

Risky attempt with the call in but search forums for the questions they ask

[dallis]

OP didn't say he called in... he said "automatically".

I've had this happen once in 4 years. The account was a blockbuster!

I've found that if I sell to the limit in the first few days of the month on a new account I almost always get one bump, and if I can sell to the new limit again by the middle of the month I get another bump about half of the time.

Wow, what a surprise, MORE reports of other members having success calling the boogie-man, no shutdowns? Who knew?

I guess when you don't call eBay for several years you become out of touch with how things work...
