What error message are you getting when you try, or if no error message what circumstances lead you to your conclusion that you are restricted to bid:  what page are you on, what blanks do you fill and what links do you click, what happens next vs. what did you expect to happen?

New members will have bidding restrictions.  Have you placed bids on multiple items?  ebay adds up all those bids and if it approaches your limit, you will no longer be able to place bids.  Rather than bidding multiple times, decide the most you are willing to pay and bid that amount one time, as late in the auction as you are comfortable.  ebay will keep you in the lead up until someone bids more.

 

I believe it also helps to specify your payment methods.  You can do that here:
