How do you enable best offer
When you list the item, there should be an option to enable offers near where you set the price.
Does it show on the app?
@first in line: I would assume so, although I never use the app for listing so you'll just have to check.
@FireRunner: Well there's an option to enable offer but can't seem to find best offer. I wonder if they are the same?
So enable best offer before you accept the free listing offer?
Yeah (profanity) that…. they are forcing offers on you now, even automatically applying it when the item doesn't sell within a few days, and even adding it when you don't allow it. Absolutely disgusting from eBay to do this.
I’ve never had it forced on. You can also set automatic reject below certain price to filter out low ball offers
It's repeatedly being added to my listings (2k+ feedback) I have seen forum posts discussing it. When selling lower value items with free postage, adding best offer automatically isn't exactly helpful.
@scuderiarmani: Wierd I’ve never had that. I can see why that would be really annoying. Perhaps it only happens if you have automatic relist - this is something I never use. When I manually relist, it does have accept best offer as a default but I just un tick box.
@FireRunner: I listed with the 'good till cancelled' though that doesn't seem an option (on the Android App now), without offers enabled…. days later it gets automatically added into listings without my consent. Despite having 20 plus days remaining…
They also automatically add it when I revise an item on the Android App even when I don't alter the pricing section.
Many people complaining about it. Seems to have been going on for over a year, however maybe only hit Australia recently…
@scuderiarmani: I’m getting the same thing every day: your listings can now accept offers. Really pisses me off, if I wanted to accept offers I would have enabled best offer. What’s next? Automatically accepting offers of at least 30% of your asking price?
And the app is shit now because I can’t select duration on BIN listings, I have to finish them in the browser. Ebay have really dropped the ball.@Some Human: Yeah it's terrible. It was nice when you could do the listing on the PC and link your phone to take pics.
Changing the terms of my sale is disgraceful.
@scuderiarmani: Agree, and Ebay often changes my listings without telling me. The first time I only found out because someone submitted an offer. The listing had offer disabled on submission, eBay changed that to offers over 50% at time of listing without notifying me. I noticed and changed it back to no offers. Then a week later the listing revision history shows Ebay updated the listing to allow offers without telling me.
It wasn't until about a month later they sent me an email when updating a different listing to enable best offer that they first informed me they could do that, but I'd had to manually restore over 60 listings prior without any communication from eBay.
It is a real pain when you have to view every listing regularly to identify when Ebay happens to decide they will change the listings, and makes me as a seller look stupid to buyers when the listing says offers are allowed then I reject them, it is not a positive experience for anyone.
@phantom: Exactly, couldn't agree more.
I always sell my items as I price very competitively. I don't need them dictating it.
My listings get upgraded to best offer every single time. Very annoying since I price my items competitively.
Bugger didn't get this one. Just one "list 3 items for free…" :(
I haven't received any emails, but the click through link worked for me. I was able to accept the offer and it's now active for the next 3 days. Cheers OP.

What exclusions and other conditions apply?
This promotion only applies to single quantity listings.
Yes but you can not have multiple quantity listings. You can list up as many items as you like but you can't have a single listing with multiple quantities.
Save the first one as a template and just use it to list other ones. Or, use the bulk listing tool if you have a large quantity of the same items to sell and you have to list them individually.
He means the listing can only be for 1 of the listed item. You can't use it to sell 10 of the same item in one listing.
But that rule is always true with these deals and it makes perfect sense. If you're selling in bulk, you're not likely a private individual seller.
I also have another offer that gives me 75% of final selling fee.
And another that gives me $50 ebay voucher when I sell $500 worth of items
These have been there for a while, I regularly check it.
