Hi all,

Im sorry but I find the buy/sell limits a bit confusing. I bought some yesterday and wanted to try again. But apperently I have to wait 24hrs or 30 days? Thats a bit confusing.

Your Remaining LindeX Trading Limits
per 24 hours per 30 days
Buy US$0.00 US$0.00
Sell US$0.00 US$0.00

Your Remaining Account Billing Limits
per 24 hours per 30 days
Purchase US$15.00 US$15.00


Does this basically mean I can't buy new L's?
Thanks,
Takara

If you are less than a week old, you have to wait a bit to buy more lindens

After one month you get a good amount to buy and sell, 2500 US dollars per month.

The limits are on a rolling average, daily for business accounts and monthly for reguular residents.

I think the limits are for fraud protection.

I think you get an increase after one week too :)

Up to 250 US dollars I think.

Can you not use another site to buy them? Like SLexchange maybe?

Hehe. I know what you mean about the CC details. But SLexchange are pretty good and appear to be secure. I honestly don't know if it will work though

Ah, I see.

I see your limits are down to 15 dollars, and the minimum you can recharge your account by credit card is 25 dollars which, unfortunately, is over you limit for right now.

You should get more at the one week mark.

Ok, the purchase amount is the amount that you can put in with credit cards per month and take out by check or paypal.

Once the dollars are in the account, you use the lindex purchase amount, which by your information is 0 dollars. So you can't buy anymore lindens right now.

Can I ask how old you are? I mean when did you open your Second life account?

Anyway if you look in your account page on this website and look at the links on the left, you will see a linden trading limits link. If you click on that, you will see the amounts you can buy and sell. It also show when you get increases.
