Two eBay, One Paypal - Limits.

[ash213]

So, I opened a '2nd account' to use alongside my main ebay.

I do have a few other stealth accounts, but as some people have said here you can have two ebay accounts to one paypal, i thought i'd open a 2nd ebay account to work on alongside my main one while i put my main one in 'sleep mode' for a couple of months.

Anyway , i assumed as i linked them together and with my paypal i would have no limits on the 2nd ebay account.

WRONG. Not that i went to sell anything on it, i just went to verify it, link etc, then looked at limits and it said ten items, £650 per month.

I went through the process of verifying some info to increase limit and it increased it to 25 items, £750. What is this BS? I thought as i linked it to my solid ebay/pp i would be unlimited?

Cheers all.

Hi,

I had this, to increase it again it will ask you to phone them.

Be careful as you do this - PP and eB have placed limits on the original account in the past (personal experience) - you could have limits REDUCED hard...or even suspension asking for info to verify the accounts.

Create more accounts to sell across, or be patient.

Just curious, why did you open a second eBay account linked to the same PayPal account as your first? As opposed to creating a stealth account.
