Limit eBay Quantity-Per-Buyer via Omnivore

Limit quantity per buyer on eBay listings

eBay allows you to restrict how many units of a product a single buyer can purchase in one transaction. This can help prevent bulk buying, protect stock levels, or support promotional limits. You can apply limits directly in eBay or via Omnivore/eBay LINK.

There are two ways to limit a buyer's purchasing ability.

Apply a Maximum Quantity per Buyer in Omnivore

Firstly you can set a hard limit across all products which means that a buyer can only buy so many for the lifetime of that product.

  • Go to Settings → eBay → Manage Listing Options.

  • Find the Maximum Quantity Per Buyer field.

  • Enter the limit (for example, “1” to restrict buyers to a single unit).

  • Save your settings.

  • Perform an Upload to eBay for the changes to go live.

Note that this setting is applied across ALL products in your feed.

Set a Purchase Limit in eBay

  • Log in to your eBay Seller Hub.

  • Go to Account Settings → Site Preferences → Buyer Requirements.

  • Enable the rule that restricts buyers from purchasing more than a set number of items within 10 days.

  • Enter the maximum quantity a buyer can purchase.

  • Save your changes.
