I'm trying to buy a £25 item, for collection only, on eBay. I have had the account since 2019 but have never bought anything on it - I actually remember trying to buy something this time last year and giving up for the same reason. I've linked my PayPal and my Google account and have used both of those for a number of years with no issues.
The error I get is:
You’ve reached a temporary buying restriction.
You can only buy items where you can pay immediately at checkout. To continue, find an item with an immediate payment method and click on the “Add to Cart” button in the listing.
As far as I can see the item I'm trying to buy is available for immediate payment - I am not placing a bid just using the buy it now option.
How can I solve this? I can't even find a live chat option.
