10 items per month?

[deadlyblade21]

I'm only allowed to sell 10 items per month? Is eBay serious!?!?!1/!?!? Is there a way to increase this? 

Btw, it's 10 items per month... I thought it was 10 listings per month. So I am only allowed to sell 10 of the same bracelet under one listing in an entire month?! This is absurd

Until you establish yourself as a reliable seller you will be restricted like this on new selling accounts.

You can attach a credit card to your ebay account. This normally gives you an automatic instant increase to 100.

After that you need to call them monthly (every 30-days) and plead your case for an increase.

We all had to start out this way. Unless you have had the selling account from 10-years ago when these restrictions did not exist.

We have just had one of our selling accounts that started out the same way lifted to 500,000 items per month without even having to ask them. For us that is essentially unlimited. It just takes some time. Took us 3-years to reach this level.

Okay, thanks for the quick reply. I've attached my paypal to my ebay.  Is that the same as attaching my credit card, if not, how do I attach my credit card?

Credit Card Add/Edit

[deadlyblade21]

There is no "credit card" section to "edit." Maybe it's because I've attached my paypal?

To Paypal you can either 'attach':    1) a credit card     or      2) a bank a/c

A credit card attached will assist you in increasing your selling limits, a bank account will not.

Also - if you are new to all of this you need to be aware that paypal can withold funds from buyers for up to 21 days before releasing to your account (paypal account).

Visit this site to see what is involved and how it is all working at the moment and what is being done to try and stop this (alleged) illegal action by paypal:

I have a credit card attached to my paypal. It's still 10 per month.

Is this your first eBay id/account? If you have another one that you have sold on recently you can link the two and that may give you a higher limit per month.

If you are brand new to eBay then the limits will apply.

Sadly, I am brand new. Would penalties apply if I link my cousin's account to mine? He's a long-term ebay seller.
