Getting 5/500 or 10/1000 Every Time

techdawg · #1 04-22-2015

Hey guys,

So I have been making many accounts lately with various different methods, however every time they always get 5/500 or 10/1000 limits. Previously in years past sometimes I have accounts that go directly to 50/10,000 and other higher-limit accounts, although I understand there is probably no rhyme or reason to this.

Recently I feel like it has been not only harder to get limit increases, but a decent starting limit as well.

So my actual question is, is this something unique to me? Has anybody shared my experience?

I have tried many ways to create these accounts so I know it's probably not a variable in account creation.

Looking forward to hear your responses

Yeah 5/500 is the norm nowadays, I find that there pretty easy to get limits increased on them anyways, just sell to the max and within a month it'll usually go up most the times

This has been my strategy so far.

Is there any rhyme or reason to limit increases? or practically random. I have had several accounts lately that don't get increased after 50 for several months of to-limit selling

You can call to request limit increases. If they ask address verification, just hang up and call back again.

It can also get he account shut down though

Its always a risk to call into eBay, so selling to the limits is generally the way to go. Eventually you will get limit increase without any attention being brought to your account

Yes, there's supposed to be a risk. My method is keeping the cost per account low, and raising limits ASAP. Everyone is different, and that's ok.

I generally find quality better than quantity personally. All to our own, but its important to make forum members aware of the risk when ringing in

I've gotten it a few times, but I make accounts and list items the same day, then call in and get increases.

^^^A variation of a method that may be dangerous for some and thus not advocated.

incniu · #17 04-23-2015

used to be before like.. 80% of time for 0/0

these weeks, all with 5/500; also no need to call in.. always sell in the first hour.

I should add, all my accounts are with GV numbers. That might be the culprit.

That might lead to suspension however....I wouldnt recommend hanging up - have you tried this?

That's his MO.... hanging up & calling again & agian until he gets someone to like him

Can you imagine the risk that creates?

rsot · #21 04-23-2015

Too dangerous for new ppl here

lol...I really need to be more detailed in my posts instead of assuming you guys know what I mean.

When you call and they do address verification, they will come up with no info. They will ask how long you've been at the address...I say x amount of time, then they ask your previous address (have one ready before you call!), give it to them, then they say, "We couldn't verify your info, please check the public records at xyz" you say ok, THEN hang up, and call back.

It was just easier to say "hang up and call back" than type all that out.
