To sort this listing limit, I would ring eBay, or request a callback - they can usually adjust it on the spot.

Actually OP in your listing it shows a quantity of 10 is available.

 

so there is your 10 freebies used up.

As a new seller, eBay restricts the number of items you can sell in any month.  If you have a limit of 10, that number includes any active listings (including multiple quantities) plus any sold listings for the month.  So for example if you had 6 listings still active at the end of last month, and two of those were quantity of two, that counts as 8, then if you also had two sales since the beginning of this month, they make up your 10 items, so you can't list any more until the end of the month unless oneof your active listings ends without a sale.

 

You can request a limit increase once a month, use the link at the top of your My eBay page where your limit information sits.

Cheers,

Thanks, but I have only posted one item since I started selling yesterday, I planned on putting a few more on today but it wont let me. It says i have reached my limit of ten yet I have only listed one item.

I think if you go thru some account validation steps including attaching a valid credit card to your account that should automatically increase your limit to 100.

Other than that you could try calling ebay and requesting a selling limit increase, but as pointed out above you can only do that every 30-days and they may not agree to do it.

Depending on how many items you have, you would be better having say 5 different items with a quantity of 2 each than just 1 item with 10 available? At the moment you are giving yourself only one chance of a sale? You could always put in your listing "more than one (or two) available for sale, if you want more please contact us", that way, if somebody does want four for example, you can edit all the quantities so you can sell four to that buyer?
