Restricted Sales for New Seller

Posts: 310 Forumite
Afternoon all
I've just had a huge clear out, mostly clothes and computer games, and have tried to list the lot on Ebay but have come up against the restricted listings rules for new sellers.
I'm waiting for the direct debits to come into my account to verify my bank details and until then I'm stuck at 10 listings a month.
My question is how long does it normally take for Ebay to 'trust' you enough to up your limit, and what sort of increases should I be hoping for?

ages. i have 46 positive feedback on my account (100%) and they're still restricting me 6 months down the linehelpful tips
it's spelt d-e-f-i-n-i-t-e-l-y
there - 'in or at that place'
their - 'owned by them'
they're - 'they are'
it's bought not brought (i just bought my chicken a suit from that new shop for £6.34)0 -
Is there any way to speed up the process.0

Keep your account in good order and prove to eBay you can be trusted. 100% FB but poor DSRs, for instance, might not be a good idea to accumulate if you want restrictions to be lifted.Always_Harassed wrote: »Is there any way to speed up the process."Well, it's election year, Bill, we'd rather people didn't exercise common sense..." - Jed Bartlet, The West Wing, season 4

This is also the only time at all that actually leaving and receiving feedback matters. I was following a rather interesting thread on the ebay boards about someone being restricted as one of their lines received virtually no feedback- and ebay assumed that meant buyers had a problem. So, leave your feedbakc promptly as that often encourages buyers to do the same.I’m a Forum Ambassador and I support the Forum Team on the eBay, Auctions, Car Boot & Jumble Sales, Boost Your Income, Praise, Vents & Warnings, Overseas Holidays & Travel Planning , UK Holidays, Days Out & Entertainments boards.

You can have up to 8 (I think) accounts, so 80 per month!0

Provided that the accounts aren't used to bypass selling restrictions.
Doing this risks having the accounts closed if discovered by ebay.

What are the guidelines?
Allowed
Users may have multiple accounts on eBay. We understand there are various reasons why someone would choose to have more than 1 account.
Not allowed
Registering new accounts or using other existing accounts to avoid buying and selling restrictions or limits or other policy consequences0
