Time Away payments on hold question!

[isellpinupsclippingsandmemorabilia]

Hi Everyone! I have 1 item for sale right now, I had over 1,000 that I ended. Due to personal reasons I have to take time away from selling. My question is: I do know that after a certain amount of time of non selling ebay considers you a new seller and will limit your sales and hold funds. Can anyone tell me how long you have before ebay will consider you a new seller again? Thanks for everyones time!

I don't know the answer to your question, but I do know that the ended listings will disappear from your ended file in 2 months. If you had planned to relist them later, they won't be there after the 2 months.

No sales in a month usually your funds will be on hold for a month....if a big sale...more than a month.

Doesn't matter how long you been on eBay or feedback. Doesn't matter if item received and buyer gave positive feedback for item sold if nothing sold in a month.

Funds on hold is like being a new seller.

I left for 9 months and came back recently with no limits on anything. But it also shows I'm due to lose my top rated status the 20th of Nov. I actually lost it a month ago, but they gave me a grace period. 

So I'd say you have either a year, or until whenever you fall below the 100 sales per year threshold. I'm like 30 sales short right now.
