Been on eBay off and on since 2000 and now I can't create a listing due to seller limits?

Question

How to fix this? Seems I don't have any items valued low enough to even create a Buy it Now $12.99 listing. Is there any way around this? I can't get a human to plead my case to.

@katwmn17 eBay reduces selling limits to $10 for dormant accounts as an added level of security for your account.

I recommend listing any item you have laying around such as a DVD, book, etc. You probably need to set link or verify your checking account.

You need to create your first listing directly on eBay to get your seller account set up.

Complete these steps in this order.

a) Draft a listing on eBay, click submit or "list it". The system should guide you through setup. If not, follow these steps:

b) Verify/update/complete your Profile Registration: Name, address, phone number, identity information (profile) on your eBay Account: https://accountsettings.ebay.com/profile
-- Use your Street Address, even if you don’t get mail there.
-- Make sure to use your full legal name and that it matches your bank account and government ID ( drivers license etc)

c) And add a Checking Account ( it must be a brick and mortar checking account) and Credit/Debit Card: https://ppcapp.ebay.com/myppc/wallet/list

You will need to provide a SS# or ITIN to receive your payouts.

Please check to see if you have BOTH a Checking account marked for "Used for payouts" and a credit/debit card. One of these (bank account or card) needs to be marked for "Preferred for selling costs" I use a credit card for selling costs so that refunds and other fees don't come from my checking account.
