Selling Limits (Anyone else seeing crazy limit numbers?)

[heckofagame]

Yes. It's one billion, with a B. My favorite glitch so far. 

[yuzuha]

It's not a glitch-- mine have been 2 billion for years now.

Ditto. 2B items and $2B dollars.

Back when eBay made the change, one of the eBay reps (Trinton?) told us it was to cut down on limit increase requests to CS for established sellers with great track records.

Edit to add: Change was in 2019 and Tyler (former eBay rep) said:

"this change was made for sellers who's accounts met a few different criteria, but overall have a great track record with us and a history of selling regularly. We increased their limits to prevent them from having to contact CS directly to request it. It saves them time, saves us time, and lets them focus on selling and taking care of their customers. It should also free up the phones so if anyone else needs to request an increase they don't have to wait very long at all. Thanks!"

So, I need to list something with a quantity of like 900 milllion.

Ball is in your court

I can't even find mine. The FAQ says

1. Go to the Overview  tab.
2. Scroll down and find the Monthly limits.

Scroll down? Scroll down where? Dumping all the options shows me nothing.

Maybe I'm in the unlimited club.

On the bottom of the seller hub overview page.  I fully expected mine to have limits.  I'm not that special.

I am curious, can you see your limits at the bottom of the My eBay Overview page:

Sellers who had accounts prior to the displayed limit all had secret limits, my old selling accounts are like this, they do not display limits.

If you call eBay and ask them what your limits are they can flip the switch and you will see them, as @wastingtime101 mentioned the non-public limits for those old selling accounts were usually REALLY high, sellers who called and asked were often astounded that their limits were in the Millions Of Dollars/Listings.

@mcdougle4248  Thank you, but nope, nothing there, either, and I hunted all over, through all the links provided.

I guess I can list that spare planet I have for $10 billion.

ETA: This is nothing new for my account - I didn't qualify for business policies long after it seemed everyone else did (then when I finally did and tried them, I noped right out of it - no thanks, after all). In the new shipping form a couple of years back I did not have first class shipping for the longest time, either. I've missed some other roll-outs, too.

That's probably it, then. I've had the same old ID since 2001.

Hey @chapeau-noir . On my main account I used to have visibility to my limits both before and after they were bumped to 2 billion in 2019. In Nov 2022, eBay removed access to my limits on Seller Hub overview page. They removed "monthly limits" entirely - cannot add it with customizing the view. I can still see my limits if I go to this page:

https://www.ebay.com/help/selling/listings/selling-limits?id=4107

Another account that's very small (limits are a few hundred thousand last I checked) can still see limits on the Hub overview page.

Those 2 scenarios were consistent with numerous sellers I checked with at the time my limits disappeared from the Hub overview page in Nov 2022. Sellers with high 2B+ limits lost visibility on the Hub.

A buddy of mine that has one of those really old accounts and never had visibility to limits cannot see them on the Hub overview page or on the listing limits page linked above. It's my understanding they could contact CS to gain visibility, same as what jimmy said.

Those are the 3 limit visibility / non-visibility scenarios I know of.
