Selling limit

justaskgeppetto — Thu, 01 Apr 2021 23:33:47 GMT

Hi, I've been with eBay for years and bought and sold 100's of items although I've not sold anything for a while, so I've come to sell my gold ring only to infuriatingly find my account has a £10 selling limit and I'm not eligible for an increase, what nonsense is this? I've never had limits, I'm a long and verified customer. What good is a £10 limit?

Would be good if anyone can help as it's really annoying.

It's a security measure for your account, you have not used your account for selling for yeasrs, and so sudden selling activity and eBay are suspiscious, as many dormant accounts are used by hackers. They need to know you are the account holder. So sell those items I know the llimit is initially low, promptly, and your allowance will soon increase.

Far better to have a £10 limit, then open your account and see £1000 worth of goods has been sold on it.

Lucky you.

Novice sellers often have no idea how risky it is to sell anything valuable on eBay.

"Must have" tech items and quasi-currency items like precious metals listed by newbie selelrs arr regularly targeted by scammers. I've been here for over 20 years and I would NEVER sell a gold ring here.
