Ebay Advice: Selling Limits

nancy2K · 07-01-2022, 06:50 PM

Over the past month I have been prepping my USS Flagg for sale. I'm finally ready to go, but setting up my seller account on Ebay, I see that I have a $1,000/month sales limit. (I expect my Flagg will sell for more that.) Does that sound correct? Am I misreading something? Is there a way to raise the selling limit without selling a bunch of stuff?

Any suggestions/insights would be greatly appreciated.

New accounts really just have to make a few sales amd get over that probationary period, nothing really to be done about that.

However, If you list it in auction format and it goes over *I'm fairly certain* that if it crosses that threshold, you'll just have whatever it goes over by subtracted from next month's limit- for example, if it sells for $2000, you may not be able to list next month $1500 would mean next month you can only list up to $500.

Its been awhile since I was in that position myself, but that is how it used to work.

And yes, your Flagg should certainly go over a grand if its complete or near.

Thanks for that info. That's really good to know. I'll be sure to confirm that's still the case, but hearing that gives me the confidence to keep digging.

Hahaaa Sata we figured it out.

Nancy make sure you pack it well, use a good shipping company, insure and track it and require a signature. Also take pictures after you pack it and then seal it to cover all your bases.

Keep us posted on how it all plays out, It'd be good to have a solid confirmation of the rules being the same- after all, this sort of thread does crop up a fair amount around here.
