Variation Listing Quantity Exception for Selling Limit

[originalwestern]

I’m a high-volume fashion retailer specializing in footwear and hats. My main problem is that I can't list more SKUs because each size variation consumes my current limit. 

For example: Each pair of shoes is $200 dollars x 15 Size variations = $3,000 selling limit considering 1 unit per size. I have more than 5,000 products. I would need a $15 Million selling limit per month which is ridiculous. 

Does anybody knows how to request an exception to Variation Listing Quantity?

Thank you!

When a seller desires to increase their selling limits, they are allowed to request an increase once every 30 days. Mark your calendar and every 30 days request an increase until you have your selling limit well above anything you think you will ever need. Below is a link to where you can go to ask for a selling limit increase. It is the third option in the link below.

Yes,  each month I am requesting a selling limit increase without a problem. But still is not enough. My question is: Is there any work around on eBay to avoid consuming your monthly selling limits when you have many variations like size and color? 

Thank you!

There is no workaround for the dollar amount limit, but if you are bumping the item limit, you can reduce available quantity on items that you have more than one of that item for sale.

You can then create more listings that way.

On another note, my dollar selling limit is 50 million, even though I only have ~$220k listed.

You can get there,  just a matter of time.

Keep listing and selling what you can without any problems and they'll keep raising your limits.

I've never ask for a limit increase, they just give them and now I can list/sell 5 million a month.
