Recently, I was thinking of combining a couple of IDs so I checked my selling limit on my Pokémon account. I was pretty shocked to see the below result.
Numbers like that can be a problem if your account ever gets hacked.
Check to see what your limit is and let us know. Plus, are you surprised?
I checked there and everywhere else I could think of. I manually searched each page as well as ctrl+f searched for “limit”. I’m coming up blank every time. Weird.
I checked that too @gemmintpokemon. I have all the tiles on my overview and none of them hidden. Next time I have to call them I guess I’ll ask. I’ve never been alerted as having been close to the limits and I am selling less this year than in prior years so I should be safe anyways. I always thought limits were just for newer sellers but seeing that Gary has one and just thinking about it, it makes sense that everyone would have some kind of limit.
Mine is 120k items and $900k. I had to have it increased last year to that to list my box set haha - I had to go through a long interview. I used to have a guy work for me that has very little sales but had a $10M limit - it was nuts. I am not sure how they come to their numbers for that
When they set the limits up I remember they put mine at $500k which put me ON the limit. I had to stop listing product for a little bit and when I was going to increase, they started removing my listings for another reason. They were listed as multi-variation type listings. I had over 10k unique items and 4 years of sales. They were removed because of the category “Toys and Hobbies → wholesale” or something close to that. That was an incorrect category for Pokemon, even though it was a representative that instructed me how to list this way. I almost quit selling that day as I had to literally start over by ending every single listing in my store.
7,612 quantity listed and sold / 114,000 limit on quantity of items
$19,435.70 listed and sold / $750,000.00 monetary limit
I really don’t understand those eBay Limits… Sure, when you’re a new eBay Seller they’re GREAT! It limits the amount of items you’re able to list / sell (within reason) until you’re able to build-up a positive reputation (another safe-guard to further prevent scammers). However, when you become a long-time active eBay Seller, the eBay Limits get to be a bit ridiculous - not sure why. I am currently FAR BELOW my eBay Limits - and have been for the longest-time. However, they keep increasing my limit every once in awhile despite me never even coming close to reaching said limit. It’s a slow, incremental growth - nothing crazy like it used to be (remember getting excited for my limits being doubled so I can list more items).
You must have been so pissed after hearing that kinda news! I actually remember viewing those listings within your eBay Store and thinking to myself on how great of an idea that was - be able to list all of the C. or Un. Cards from a certain set within one listing. I came close to following your set-up; however, opted not to because I wasn’t really sure about the traffic - as you had to place those listings within a different eBay Category.
