Looks like it's back, actually $1.10 including GST.
Great if you weren't targeted for the better free version.
It is also worth checking in your "My Selling" page at the bottom under Promotional Offers to see if you can accept this promotion from there instead.
Expect the usual T&Cs.
This listing is now outdated — Refer to eBay Mega Weekend deal post that covers selling on Saturdays and Sundays
So what is the bargain?
$1.10 fee instead of 9.9% of sale+postage price.
That's pretty juicy.
They would have to pay me to take the risk selling on eBay.
Thanks for letting us know.
Nope, not available for me as well
Available on 0/3 of my accounts.
I wasn't targeted on this one and was going to contact eBay because the T&Cs say that all members are eligible but then I saw that they'd sent me an email a couple of days ago with an offer for unlimited free listings until 4 June. Even better. I'm sure that offer is already up on OB but here's the link > https://www.rsvp.ebay.com.au/rsvp/signup/5802/
Thanks!
Unlimited free listings, if it has a final evaluation fee is not as good as it sounds…
I wasn’t targeted but in my promotional offers section at the bottom of Selling/Sold page, there was an Accept Offer button. After hitting it, I became targeted. Weird, now I have both $1 and free FVF in my list.
Same here, wasn't originally targeted but then clicked into My Selling and found it there and it accepted, weird.
I'd keep an eye on which offer is used when you list if you've got them both active - it's $1.10 vs $0, but it all adds up!
Just got unlimited no fvf. Relisted everything.
Is it possible to create a bunch of placeholder listing b4 offer expires and then change them later as items become available to sell? Anyone done this before
Yes you can. Set them on some extremely high prices and 30 days.
Yes, but make sure you put enough info in it for it to pass as a complete listing. For a little while I was creating dummy listings to fill in later, consisting of just the listing heading and a note in the description saying "further details to come", and then filling in the details in the following weeks (the dummy listings were for 30 days).
This worked without incident for two consecutive months I think, with maybe 20 or 30 dummy listings each month. Then on the third month, within a few days of relisting many of them, they started getting flagged by eBay and cancelled for not being actual listings. Since then I've added actual item details into the listing, and haven't had any more issues.
Keep in mind you could also create a 7 or 10-day version of of a listing and a 30-day version too (with an extremely high price as suggested elsewhere). Run the shorter version as the actual listing, and if it doesn't sell, transfer the info into the 30-day version (now with 23 or 20 days remaining), drop the price down, and you get a second shot at selling it fee-free within the next month. I sell all my items buy-it-now, and have found that most items will either sell soon after listing, or shortly before the listing is about to expire, so it's handy to have an item finishing more than once in the month.
Touching on your point just create a whole lot of "spare" listings at high prices using cheap readily available items from a store like Officeworks then you have photos and descriptions you can simply cut n paste.
In the unlikely event they do sell it is easy to source them.
As long as the categories match up with the items you actually want to sell then I guess this could work, though simply copy/pasting descriptions from a commercial website like OW risks getting your listings cancelled for copyright infringement.
eBay's item catalogue has photos available to use for for many common items so it'd be safer just to create a bunch of spare listings using eBay's own image library, and writing a quick description yourself.
I got the pop up notification from the ebay app with the offer, I clicked on it and got "Unfortunately, this promotional offer is not available to you."
Same here
Didn't work from the link on the post (accept offer), but it did work for me through the selling/sold link.
Dude! I love you!
Didn't work for me. Don't know why I expected any different.
Unfortunately, this promotional offer is not available to you.
:-(
Your posts always bring in the light :)
So to confirm.. if I list something today and it doesn't sell for a long time. I would still be charged $1.10 for final value fee?
Correct. If you select a 30 day listing, you will have up to 30 days to sell under the promotion.
isn’t there an option to “list until sold”?
Yes there is. If you select this option however, the item will relist automatically after 30 days and will no longer be eligible for the promotion, i.e. you will be charged full final value fees if it sells after it auto-relists.
ic ic thanks
that is sneaky as f
Looks like this is available again as it allowed me to accept the offer for this Sunday 10/6.
Thanks, worked for me too. Don't forget to upvote.
Maybe their memory is perfectly intact.
Thanks. Just checked and I got the offer too!
just got the offer
If I have multiple offers, do they stack? If not, which offer is applicable to the items that I sell if they meet the conditions of more than one?
Yes, offers are stackable. You can definitely stack the $1 FVF with the voucher offer if that’s what you’re referring to.
If I schedule my auctions to automatically commence on a Sunday, will this deal apply?
Confirm it's working again for this Sunday 24/6.
anyone know if I list today yet set the auction to start tomorrow with a pre-determined time, will this still count for $1 fees as I have created the listing today but the auction starts tomorrow?
It needs to be listed/started today in order to satisfy the $1 promo, did you try getting this deal also?
Hi what happen if I already listing the item with the promo and some buyer decided cancel the order?
Can I still relisting with the same promotion?
Only if the promotion is still current.
If you want to list under the $1 promo again, accept the offer and wait until it is active (tomorrow) before you relist.
Yeah need wait tomorrow
