Nope, there will be no notification. If you hit the $5000 limit, eBay will just stop allowing gift cards to be applied as payment, but it won't tell you why.Sorry, so much posting, but have a question concerning the $5000 limit at Paypal. How do you know that you've definitely reached your limit Paypal limit? I think I have about $1650 left, so enough for one more good churn before I have to switch to DD25's new account, or maybe get another paypal acct to use. Anyway, how do they notify you, or do they, if you have reached your limit? Let's say you try to buy $1750 in target gc's. So, does it just stop taking gc's and you have to use a cc or do they notify you? I don't want to go over so much that I have to pay a lot with a cc, but want to get right up to the limit, but not sure if there's anyway to do that until boom, there's the limit!
