Exceeded messages
I have been trying to answer a question from a buyer, but keep getting "you have exceeded the number of messages you can send try again in 24 hours"! What is that about, I haven't sent a message for days, how can we contact buyers if you can't send a message?

·3 years agoZOMBIE THREAD FROM 2021
The problem with zombie threads is that the information may be out of date and no longer applicable.
The eBay employees who respond to threads are called in by using (for example) "@tyler....@ ebaydotcom" - you can figure out the actual format, I think.
Most posters are buyers and sellers taking a break from the lonely job of describing, uploading, and packaging and having a coffee and a argybargy with other poor lonely members.
And just for the record threads are closed by the Board monitors who are subcontracted to eBay. Their names are usually preceded with "kh-"

·3 years agoI Have gotten the same notification when I sent several messages to buyers on the same day. I don't know how many are allowed but it seems as though eBay operates like the authoritarian countries such as Russia and China. Hey implement any rules they desire. I gave up sending numerous messages in the same time frame and haven't tried again. To reply to a member on this forum, highlight their user name, ie. triber, then paste it where it says message. There will be a screen where you can type in a reply. The usual way you receive threads in reply is that they are not from the community. They are from approved, appointed eBay employees as far as I know. To reply or contact a member, follow my copy and paste method mentioned above.good Luck!
