eBay selling limits...?

Hello!

I'm having a clear out and I've started posting things on eBay to create space and make a few quid.

I've only been allowed to post 10 listings for the whole month until I receive a letter from eBay and confirm something.

Is this normal? If anyone can let me know about this I'd really appreciate it! :)

Thanks!

    I started selling video games which were gathering dust due to lack of use and found that I was limited to selling around five a month. Since discovered that certain categories you are limited for a while.

    Thanks guys. It would seem I have an account-based allowance, and until I get this letter and confirm my details with eBay, I can't put any more listings up.

    So much for my productive Sunday :o

  • Yes but after sorting the letter you go up to 100 items or £3,500 worth of sales. Itcan be done in just a few clicks and the letter arrives very quickly.

    I'm listing several things every week and the second chance offer facility is superb.
