eBay - what sort of promos have they been doing for sellers recently

I have decided to sell some stuff on ebay. I know they have the first 30 items free, but I'll probably have about a hundred or more to list soonish.

I remember them doing different promos for $.99 start and free postage.

Can anyone advise me on how frequently they do free listings over and above the 30 free that they have now?

Also, it looks like if your item does not sell, they will not you relist, even if you have less than 30 listings. Can anyone confirm that?

TIA

  • How about mutliple accounts so u can post the hundreds?

    no promo recently, you can definitely relist what's not sold for free if u are under 30 for the month, today is a good day as it's 1st of the month!

    • Good idea on the multiple accounts, but I reckon buyers will not pay as much for someone with a zero rating and who has just joined as someone who has been a member for nearly 15 years and who has my feedback numbers.

  • I was selling 30 a month on the free listings, then got bumped up to a Power Seller after a few months… You'd think that was a good thing right? Nup, same fees, but no more free listings =/

    • Can you ask them to pull the powerseller status? I was once a powerseller. It was automatic, but because the fees and everything was the same, I didn't mind.

      • Haven't asked actually, just got turned off the whole thing. Yeah, it was automatic, but no more free listings meant the 'fees' had gone up for me.

        • I did an online chat with them today. Apparently they now send out an invitation and you must accept it or they leave you a regular seller.
