Default Any explanation for this?? eBay being overly generous?

Since September I've had nearly 10 ebay accounts on the go. I use 2 or 3 as my 'main' accounts (these currently have 100 items per month limit) while I slowly build the others up (stuck on 25 or 10 items per month limit).

On my main accounts I now have well over 100 feedbacks on each account with high DSRs + plus fully verified Paypals with no limits. Despite this I've never gotten my limits lifted apart form the start after confirming address.

Not long ago I logged into one of the backup accounts to list a few things to discover a message from eBay stating my limits had gone from 10 to 85, this is despite selling only 5 items since December and having just 3 feedbacks.

I listed the few items and logged in 5 days later when they'd sold to discover my limits had gone from 85 to 240.

Any idea why this is or what I could have done right?

I treated it no different from any other account...infact this would be my 'worst account', as in the one I paid least attention to. The Paypal isn't fully verified, I've never confirmed the address, I've only sold a total of 10 items.... yet my selling limits are 240/£6000. If anything it seems the key is to simply barely use your account. Surely that cannot be correct? Why would a ebay seller who sells on average 2 items a month get such a boost? Any ideas?

Pure luck. Nothing more to it than that.

Yes, very random and nothing more. I've had accounts go from 25 -> before I have even sold an item with 0 feedback. This happened on more than one account as well.

An eB seller who sells only 2 items per month would be looked at as a novice and eB might encourage him/her more to sell....one approach
