    Open to all eBay members, but if I click the link while still signed in to my eBay account I get the usual “Unfortunately, this promotional offer is by invitation only” message that’s associated with targeted offers?

        eBay must have high minimum performance standards. I’m no power seller, but I do sell often. I have 100% feedback (235) and close to a full 5 stars for all the seller criteria. Seems like a lot of people will be excluded from this deal that is open to “all eBay members”.

          Wow! That sucks, maybe contact them via live chat and see why you have been excluded… I've got much less sales but 100% feedback and was included

        • aja12 on 19/11/2017 - 08:24

          @urbancartel: Ah, i’ll just accept it. In the last month I’ve ended 2 listings (buy it now) because they’ve sold outside of eBay. Maybe that’s enough to upset eBay. Great deal for those eligible.

          Good one. I've done the same and continue to do so. I already got a warning from eBay saying i shouldnt be contacting buyers directly :)
          If I can get around the RIDICULOIS ebay and PayPal fees, then I will.

        • aja12 on 26/11/2017 - 17:42

          @Cusack: The two items were sold on Gumtree, but I can just imagine that eBay assumes they were sold to another eBay user.

      • matt-ozb on 19/11/2017 - 08:56

        100% feedback (1050) … not eligible

    • netsurfer on 19/11/2017 - 09:52

      4 criteria:

      • Transaction defect rate
      • Late shipment rate
      • Case closed without seller resolution
      • Transactions (number of transactions in 12 months)

      However, I do find eBay seller promotions tend to be quite inconsistent.

      • ozzpete on 20/11/2017 - 09:20

        So im not invited because I havnn't sold in last 12 months ?
        Im fairly certain I was on top of the first 3 criteria, I was a "top seller" with 100% feedback and went out of my way to deliver excellent customer service, when I sold often through ebay 3 years ago.
        Also, would making 1 or 2 sales, then waiting till the following Sunday, put me back into being eligible ?
        Then I could sell my higher value items without the expensive final value fee.
        Thanks

        • aja12 on 20/11/2017 - 09:33

          There’s no logic or consistency to eBay’s criteria. My main account (I posted above) got nothing. My second account, from which I’ve never bought or sold anything, got the offer.

        • netsurfer on 20/11/2017 - 09:41

          All 4 criteria are assessed based on the transactions in the last 12 months only. Even though you were a top rated seller 3 years ago, none of those transactions count in the current assessment. That's how feeBay operates it seems - strictly business.

          I am also on the very low end of the total number of transactions. It's just not worth the trouble when the FVF is so high so I didn't bother selling many items on feeBay.

          And, yes, with these FVF deals, it is more luck of the draw.

    Awesome - going to be doing all my eBay listings on a Sunday for the rest of the year!

  • C0mbat on 19/11/2017 - 08:11

    Does anyone know if it's possible to change my account from a UK one to an AU one? It's saying I'm not eligible so I assume it's because of that. My addresses are all Aussie ones and my region is set as Australia. Plus my PayPal is also Aussie so not sure I'd there's anything else I can do.

    • ozioziozi on 19/11/2017 - 09:21

      Yes, it's possible but you may have to call Ebay support. I did that couple of years ago when I moved from the US. They changed my Ebay account from US to AUS over the phone.

    • bg on 19/11/2017 - 11:42

      You can definitely change country registration.
      I think you need to be on full site (not mobile).
      Account settings—> addresses—>change registration address

    • Nom on 22/11/2017 - 13:21

      You can, but you need to contact eBay support. I've done this - you'll find you actually have two eBay accounts, one from each country, and eBay support will just change your default from one to the other.

  • 88mph on 19/11/2017 - 08:18

    Thanks Op, worked for my account!

    Note for all: T&Cs claim one category listings only.

    Was planning to list an old phone, and a hedge trimmer - can only pick one.
    But looks like once the first item sells, I can reactivate the offer on another Sunday in 2017 and sell the other item, sweet 🍹

    • [Deactivated] on 19/11/2017 - 08:23
      +1

      I think this may mean you can only list the item you are selling in one category. There is usually a fee for multiple categories for one item.

      Eg. you might sell an old wooden ladder under the ladder category as well as antique category

    • Copydog on 19/11/2017 - 08:24
      +1

      It's one category Per listing. Means you can't list your hedge trimmer under garden tools and also electrical appliances in the one listing.

    • headphonejack on 19/11/2017 - 08:27
      +1

      You can list as many different items as you want, in as many different categories as you want, but if one particular item is listed in more than one category, you will pay a second category fee.

    • cnut on 19/11/2017 - 09:22
      +2

      Nope, that's the annoying thing. Unless you make and cancel a bunch of listings so it wastes the other ones.

      Or you message them later to tell them about it and they manually fix it. Either way you'll waste your time doing it.

    • headphonejack on 19/11/2017 - 09:27

      Not entirely sure, but I think offers accepted first take priority.

      • craigoss on 19/11/2017 - 09:34

        I'm on chat now with them. They are claiming that it is the first one accepted… seems odd because that's not how they have been applied. Either way looks like this promo wont be applied to me even tho it has been accepted and showing as active.

        • craigoss on 19/11/2017 - 10:40

          Ebay chat told me that the first accepted offer would be applied but I cancelled and relisted all my items anyways and they are showing as being used in the 1 Day Only Promo.

      I had an annoying situation where it was using my free listings that had 3 months use over the ones that had a week. Very annoying. It should go on expiry date.

    • cnut on 19/11/2017 - 21:49

      Good news everyone! Seems to use the offer properly this time. You can do mass cancellation of items and then relist and it uses the offer properly.

  • chillybags on 19/11/2017 - 08:58

    Does it just mean any seller (that lists on Sunday and meets other conditions) would only pay a $1 fee to eBay for that item?

  • Piranha2004 on 19/11/2017 - 09:06

    Thanks OP worked for me. I've never sold anything on ebay before. Bought a handful of things. I realised I've already claimed several free listing promos already too so r probably won't use this in the end.

  • [Deactivated] on 19/11/2017 - 09:12

    So it’s only one right? So if you have two toys you can only list one otherwise the second listing you will pay the full FVF?

    • Scab on 19/11/2017 - 09:18

      No, you can list as many as you want and pay $1 for each eligible item in FVF.

      Each one can only be listed in one category, read the T&Cs.

  • beaver2233 on 19/11/2017 - 09:25

    so I've accepted the offer. does it automatically apply to the listings created today (no need to apply the offer manually)?

    • cnut on 19/11/2017 - 09:32

      You can check at the bottom of the My EBay page. Usually it doesn't apply it properly.

  • TechNerd on 19/11/2017 - 09:39
    +3

    So if I activated the offer today but dont plan to sell anything now, does that mean I can't activate it again when I am ready to sell?
    Or does the offer automatically refresh every Sunday?

    EDIT: So I just contacted eBay via live chat, and they said that the one I activated today, expires today. And if I plan on selling anything on any other Sunday, to ensure that I have the offer active before proceeding. Or try to activate the offer again.

    • cnut on 19/11/2017 - 21:51

      The offer says "The promotion runs from 00:00 (AEST) every Saturday in 2017 to 23.59 (AEST) every Sunday in 2017 (“Promotion Period”)" so if you activate today, it should allow you to keep doing it for the rest of the year every weekend.

          ebay charges less than amazon in most cases

          for buyers - more competition is always great
          for sellers - ebay isnt a bad platform to sell on - you cant expect stores and volume sellers to be the target of these promotions; they are targeted at low volume sellers and buyers to drive traffic to the site for the rush to christmas.
