A few days ago I placed an order with a Chinese based Ebay seller for a range of socket head and set screws, 10 different items in all.
Today I decided to do another order for a few additonal sizes, this is the message that came up.

Never came across a seller that limits you to 10 items in 10 days, what possible reason could they have for that?
Sounds like just what I need, a tool seller who can exercise the self control that I lack.:no:
It does sound a bit strange.
I came across one in May who limited each purchaser to 3 in ten days.
Probably because you have a big shed and enough stuff in it already :DQuote:

Guess I'll have to wait for them to turn up, no biggie, total cost of order was $22.90 including postage:)
This guy lists a very wide range of sockethead and set screws, so I can see that people would want to buy more than 10 items at a time, but there you go.:doh:
It might be to stop others from on selling the goods in a commercial way.
The restriction could be imposed to limit the sellers potential exposure to paypal fraud.
Buyers have a considerable time to open a Paypal dispute about non delivery, fraudulent usage of account etc. Rationing purchases by quantity over time, sellers can limit exposure to chargeback from a particular Paypal client. The may or may not offer to exempt a regular customer once they established their bona fides.
Just an idea, no direct experieriece of the issue.
