Guaranteed approval credit cards with $10,000 limits for bad credit don’t really exist. A secured credit card that allows you to place a very sizable deposit is the closest thing you’ll find. But your spending limit equals the amount of your deposit, so it won’t help you buy something that you can’t already afford in cash.
There are a couple of important reasons why guaranteed approval credit cards with $10,000 limits for bad credit are not available. For starters, no credit card offers 100% guaranteed approval. There’s always some sort of minimum eligibility requirement that you must meet. That’s even true with secured credit cards.
Furthermore, credit cards for people with bad credit tend to have spending limits that are far below $10,000. Most unsecured cards for bad credit give you a starting limit of around $300, and fees eat into a lot of that early on. So, if you have bad credit, you’re not going to find a credit card capable of financing a big-ticket purchase.
At the end of the day, getting a credit card with a specific spending limit should not be your top priority when you have bad credit. You’re unlikely to get an unsecured card with a $10,000 limit until you have excellent credit. So, rebuilding your credit as inexpensively as possible is the best approach in the long run. Above all else, that means getting approved for a credit card as quickly as possible and paying your bill on time every month.
To help point you in the right direction, WalletHub’s editors compared dozens of credit cards for bad credit and picked their favorites.

No chance. Bad credit means secured card, so your limit will be how much you put in that deposit. There's no point in making a 10 grand deposit if you already have 10 grand to buy the thing.

Actually, that's not a bad idea to rebuilding credit. Screwing up credit that makes a person a risk is never a good thing, but like life happens.
A $10K deposit and keeping that on deposit by repaying that amount makes perfect sense because it shows responsibly by on time payments which every bank card company loves. Although $10K is ridiculously high, to each his own, yet the maximum amount is set by the card issuer and can be raised that high by policy and/or as such bank sees fit.
There's general agreement to the stated amounts just and only because those are the industry standards. Do an online search yourself and that'll be confirmed.
You point is well understood, though. To a degree, there's an agreement to it. So, yes, $10K is an exorbitant amount for a secured card which would probably not happen.

A guaranteed approval credit card for bad credit is a secured credit card. So if you want to have a $10,000 credit limit, you'll have to provide that amount as a security deposit.
