There will be plenty of veterans here Im sure, but I am a newbie to this monster.

So have made a bid for something , been out bid but there is still a couple of days to go and it won't let me up my bid
is there a fix for this

Have you tried the increase bid option (in blue) ? ..or come out & go back in, and re-try! ..this is a new one for me??

Don't re-bid now Ron, wait until it nearly finishes.
When you can that is.

Do you have a PayPal account?

 

[Tecumsea]

I think you are bidding against me Ron-so I blocked your bids........just joking

 

[polyphemus]

Nope never had that problem. If you are a new ebay user then maybe there are limits imposed until you have reached a certain level of activity either by value or volume but if that's the case then it's a new one to me.

The only reference I've found to buying limits is this;



"We've set buyer activity limits in the eBay system to encourage safe and responsible buying. If you come up against activity limits, the best way to remove them is to put a valid credit card on file as additional verification. You may be charged an authorisation charge of £1, but this will be refunded back to your card after seven to ten days.

Here's how to place a credit card on file:

1. Go to Site Map at the bottom right-hand side of the eBay homepage > My eBay - Selling > Place or Update Credit Card on File and sign in.
2. Enter your information on our secure form and click 'Continue'.

If you'd rather not put your details on file, we recommend you continue to build up positive feedback before selling or bidding on high-priced items."

That's taken from one of their customer support pages.
