eBay imposes selling limits on your account with the intent of assisting you to sustainably manage and grow your business on the marketplace. As you grow more comfortable with the increasing demand for your products, eBay will periodically raise your selling limits to allow you to list more inventory.
Additionally, selling limits may act as a means of fraud protection for eBay and it’s buyers by preventing new sellers from listing large quantities of counterfeit or even non-existent goods without being verified.
If you’d like to check your current eBay selling limits, head to the eBay Seller Hub .
- On a monthly basis, eBay will review your account performance (sales and buyer feedback) and, if eligible, will increase your selling limits, allowing you to expand your catalog on the platform.
- Both active AND sold listings are counted towards your monthly selling limit.
- Listings ended during a billing cycle before making a sale are still counted towards your selling limits. If you list those products again, they will be counted again.
Need an immediate increase to your selling limits?
If your account is in good standing, with strong sales velocity and positive buyer feedback, you may be eligible to request an immediate increase to your selling limits beyond the incremental increases you’d otherwise see on a monthly basis. eBay will need to verify your account via a trust/risk assessment.
