PayPal limited, then eBay, help me know why
 

Using stealth, that when I signed up got lucky and had 250 items a month... Was the bait
Didn't sell for a few weeks
And then sold 5 items a week for a few weeks
But last few weeks selling 25 items a week
My total sales in the one month was 1,300, I almost made it to 90 days
Notice after I sold everything this week,
paypal limited asking invoice, Id, tracking (nothing shows up, since it has tracking already) bank account confirm,
PayPal limited but I can receive payments but can't send
Then minutes later eBay seller is temporary restricted, but on eBay email said I can appeal if I put tracking numbers

I guess my confidence or never getting limited in 3 years did me,
I should of sold slow, then sell 10 a week till my 90 days are up and feedback built,

What you think made me limited? My ip location and selling 150 miles difference is this okay?
Is my eBay account worth saving, but be impossible for PayPal can i make a new paypal, or this gone for good, any suggestions

Re: PayPal limited, then eBay, help me know why
 

interesting. IP location is no issue, submitting the tracking numbers and completing the appeal sounds easy enough, but linking a new paypal will not ensure a chance of long survival. There are a few things that stand out-

bank account not confirmed and no tracking on ebay... possibly the items were high risk?

did you make any purchases to build quick feedback?

Re: PayPal limited, then eBay, help me know why
 

Completing the eBay appeal sounds easy, they want tracking numbers, but why ask when I always put them.
But problem is paypal was limited first then eBay restriction, is possible if I get eBay back, is possible to get paypal back???
on PayPal they asking id(want phone landline as other option) invoice, bank confirm, tracking, my paypal is paypal verified, the bank is confirmed.

Do you think my account having too many sales got me flagged? In under 3 months old, and selling 1300 sales in one month, also this week i sold 30 items and got limited
You think this was part of it?

Re: PayPal limited, then eBay, help me know why
 

Paypal might have limited you based on PROJECTED sales rate...known to do this

Re: PayPal limited, then eBay, help me know why
 

Selling to much to quickly could well have done it, it coukd have raised flags that eventually went on to cause limitation on eBay and suspension on paypal and both within the 90 days which increasingly seems to be an important milestone these days to get by.

Re: PayPal limited, then eBay, help me know why
 

to me, it doesn't seem like you listed too much...

something else funky is going on and unfortunately theres no way for us to pinpoint it exactly

if you have been operating stealth for 3 years, could you have made a mistake and slipped up? IP sharing? funneling funds to another account?

this is a security flag from risky behavior. perhaps your products are to blame

Re: PayPal limited, then eBay, help me know why
 

They ask for ID when they see a certain turnover in your account. There is no workaround, you have to send in everything they ask for.

THe account I made was this year and was less 3 months old before paypal limited it and ebay

I have everything different, i use wifi hotspot the ip changes every login, i even went far using different computer, and camera so I don't link with exif data. I sell these items similar to these all the time for years on my other stealth. I didn't slip up, I dont funnel funds.
I sold almost 90 items in a month time and sold 30 items and about $750 the week I got limited.

I think I screw myself selling too much in a month before my 90 days are up. I should just sold 5 items a week for first month, then 2nd month 10 a week, then 3rd month, 15 a week, and after 3 months just do everything normal, Do you think this a good idea.?

Re: PayPal limited, then eBay, help me know why
 

I agree I think selling to much before the 90 days was up does seem to indicate it has been an issue for you as this is a newer account as well, selling nearly 90 items in a month and taking $700 in that month has caught up with you this time. Make another stealth and keep to the limits you mention you should have kept to, things are changing with ebay/PayPal and you are not the first forum member stateside to have fallen fowl of tighter procedures.

Re: PayPal limited, then eBay, help me know why
 

Thanks, I will sell slow next time, just the 3 months takes time.

Do you think I can save this account though,
Ebay says I can appeal, if I give tracking numbers to them.
But paypal limited, wants the whole list of things, down to invoice, and id.

Wants the point if I can appeal ebay easy but paypal seem hard to do since this is stealth. Is this worth fighting?

Re: PayPal limited, then eBay, help me know why
 

Is this worth fighting to get back or start new again? Man I could used that 250 limit,,,:(
PayPal limited is the hard part,
