Either of the two thresholds within the calendar year: your total sales are equal to or more than £1,707 after fees, or you complete 30 or more sales.

There are reporting thresholds but we don't know what figures ebay use before they ask for your NI number. I understand new accounts are asked at outset.

Is it at that point you are asked to enter a national Insurance number or at the start of opening an account ?

Some peeps have mentioned here, that eBay have been asking new account holders for the NI numbers at the very start.
Once those thresholds are reached , if you wish to continue selling , you will then have to provide your NI number.
