Temporary buying limit

[alekov_80]

Hello there. Item ends today. And i can`t bid anymore because of this limit.

But i`m comfortable with bids i make and gonna pay everything i win. Paypal is connected. Why Ebay is so hard on me???

I`m from Russia so i use other company to deliver my stuff. Bought items year ago and everything was fine. 

I`m not going to buy some stuff i dont need just to unlock bidding. Come on.

You are not talking to anyone from eBay here,  we are members like yourself.

All new and returning sellers will have an initial limit to bidding  it's to stop new members buying multitudes of items then not being able to pay.  For a seller this causes problems and a minimum 6 day delay to be able to get fees back and to be able to relist that item.  For a returning seller they need to see it's the correct account holder,  your account was not used for a very long time,  dormant accounts are open to hackers.

You need to build up a good record of buying and paying promptly.  You will be able to buy Buy it Now items with an immediate payment.

How it works at least? Will i be able to bid an itemm which is ending in 10 hours? I hope after first won and paid item this limit will go away.

Will it dissapear if i buy something useless for me e.g. for 1 quid? Will it count? 🙂

Ok. Seems like buying 1 quid product will not affect buying limit... failed for me at least.

A good buying ' record' will involve more than just buying one item .

I finally won and pay this item. But limit is still there. I can live with it i suppose.

So. Here is ebay statements:

You've reached a temporary buying limit. 

• To make sure buyers don't bid on or buy more than they're comfortable with, we occasionally place limits on buying activity. 

I AM VERY COMFORTABLE WITH ITEMS I BID 🙂

• In some cases, limits are placed because there are too many unpaid items or cancellation requests on a buyer’s account. 

NO UNPAID ITEMS, NO CANCELLATION REQUESTS. NOT A SINGLE ONE.

Here are some ways to raise your limits: 

• Increase your number of successful transactions by purchasing any Buy It Now item using PayPal. 
• Pay for any items in your shopping cart.   

BOUGHT 0.99 QUID WASHER I DONT NEED. WELL FIT INTO "ANY ITEMS" CATERORY. DIDN`T WORK.

• Go to My eBay > Account > PayPal Account, and then select Link my PayPal account. It may take 24 hours for your PayPal account to be linked.
