[#4492444]

Over the years I have sold a very few items on ebay, probably about 4 or 5.

Recently I tidied out my garage and got rid of the n+1 bike and quite a few components. I also shifted some extra hi-fi.

To do this I had to raise my selling limit by confirming my address by means of a code from ebay. That was straight forward, I think my limit went up to £5000 or something.

I logged on tonight, a few days after the last item had completed and my allowance is now 10,000,000 items to the value of £62 million! WTF!

I didn't request any further increase.

Has this happened to anyone else?

No, that's your seller fees owed to eBay!

Druidh - It is on the drop down under "My Ebay", 7 down "Selling", strangely it isn't under "Sell".

Sounds like there are three types of allowance, and they are applied depending on how long you've been registered, previous problems, whether you have a linked funding account etc etc.

Spooky - Thats what I don't understand. It says you have to apply for an increase. It also mentions good feedback from buyers etc. which I don't have a lot of.
