How to enhance the selling limit?

[toy_zanta]

Hi,

I'm new to selling and I have already listed 03 items. My selling limit has been reached and I wonder will Ebay automatically enhance my limit or shall I request Ebay to enhance the limit?

If automatically limit will enhanced, How many days I have to wait to start selling again?

Thanks

You will need to prove yourself as a "seller"...simply listing items doesn't do it...You will need to sell those items before any increase in listing/selling limits will be increased.

"How many days I have to wait to start selling again?"....>>>

This won't be a matter of "days"...

this may take several weeks..or longer...

You have to start selling items with no problems, before they'll raise your limits.

Since you selling those cheap China RC toys, expect a lot of returns.

Once you start selling some items, ebay should raise your limits.  However,  your prices are very high and the same items are being sold on ebay for much, much less.   Be careful and good luck.

Are these being shipped from Sri Lanka or drop-shipped from China?  Your listings show SL.

Why give yourself the solution?  The solution should be to those who answered the question, not posted the question.  You can update that.

The "excavator" is actually a backhoe. I can buy that all day long on eBay for under $80.

The other two RC units I could not find.

You need to get your 3 sales figured out before you start worrying about getting your selling limits raised. You have three things going against your right now.

1. Your prices appear to be too high.

2. It appears you are a drop shipper.

And #3 might or might not be an issue...but you are another Sri Lanka seller. If your market focus is primarily Sri Lanka...then good luck.

If it is the whole world. Then lots of luck.

Before your limits are raised, you must have a history of successful transactions. And that is going to be difficult because the items you are selling are not unique. Sellers here in the US are selling the exact same items much cheaper with delivery in four days. You cannot hope to compete with that.

The black racing car you have listed at $25 with shipping of $29.99 is being sold here for $29.95 (free shipping and free returns) and it includes more accessories than you are offering. See listing #744759114617 to compare it for yourself.

So before you begin worrying about adding more listings, you need to seriously re-evaluate your product selection. Selling on eBay requires more than putting up a listing and hoping for the best. Good luck.

It seems like there are a whole bunch of brand new Sri Lanka sellers on these forums the last few days. Is that always the case or did they just open up Sri Lanka or is it really just one person with a bunch of accounts?

The last few days? It's been that way for at least a month.

The average Sri Lanka salary is about $440 a month. On the low end it is $112. I think what is happening, some of these Sri Lankans are hearing about this wonderful site where you can post stuff that you don't even own and make LOTS OF MONEY!

Or post coconut husks...and...MAKE LOTS OF MONEY!

Us dumb Western Capitalists will buy anything...you know?

I'm guessing that they are coming here to hit it rich with very little work. Or at least maybe scam a few buyers and move on.

I don't know...I just know a LOT of them post in the Selling forum. I've tried to quit responding to them.

It's sad really...
