Unable to bid on anything.

I am having trouble with being able to place bids on any items on Ebay. I keep getting an error message saying that I've reached a temporary buying limit, yet I have not been using Ebay for months. I have lost out on many a decent auction because of that and I am extremely angry about this. Has anyone else had similar issue?

You have some Feedback which says you didn't Pay for an Item you had Won. That would result in an Unpaid Item Strike. 2 of those and you would be Blocked by Most Sellers as they can Block Buyers with 2 or more Unpaid Strikes.

Or it could be because you haven't used your Account for a while you may just need to Contact Ebay to Verify that you are the Account Holder. A lot of inactive Accounts do get Hacked.

I contacted the seller and explained why I was unable to pay for the item, personally. I will definitely ask Ebay to help me find the cause of said issue. Thanks! 🙂
