I hope you all got some items to sell (especially after Christmas/New Years) because eBay is bringing back the free FVF fees promo starting 1st January 2023

Probably a new standard now as it's been 3 items per month for the last few months

All eBay Plus members will be eligible for this promotion :)

ISP Notes

  • Make sure you make a new listing to be eligible for tbe promotion. Do not relist an item as there are reports of eBay charging full fees when doing so. Personally I always “sell similar” and it seems to work

Terms and Conditions for $0 Variable Fee Promotion

When does the promotion run?

  • The promotion runs from 00:00 (AEDT) on 1 January 2023 and will be available for a limited time only, for as long as advertised on the eBay.com.au site (“Promotion Period”).
  • The promotion resets every 30 days starting 1 January 2023 until the end of the Promotion Period (each referred to as a "Cycle").

Who is eligible for this Promotion?

  • “Eligible Sellers” means sellers registered on eBay.com.au who:

    • have Australia or New Zealand as their registered address on eBay; and
    • have an active eBay Plus membership; and
    • Eligible Sellers must activate the promotion in each Cycle to receive the promotion during that Cycle. To activate this promotion, Eligible Sellers must have received an invitation to participate in this promotion and accepted these Terms and Conditions by either clicking “Accept offer” on the Terms and Conditions page or clicking “Get offer” under the “promotional offers” section of your My eBay account; and
    • received confirmation from eBay that “you’ve accepted the offer”.

  • Once you have accepted the offer, the promotion will be automatically assigned to your account and will be visible within My eBay.

  • The invitation to participate in this promotion is not transferable or exchangeable.
  • For the avoidance of doubt, if the promotion is not redeemed by the end of the Cycle, it shall be forfeited by you and the discount will not carry over into the next Cycle (if any). You will also not receive the discount in a Cycle if the promotion was not activated for the applicable Cycle in accordance with these terms.

What is the Promotion?

  • The Promotion entitles Eligible Sellers, who have activated this promotion in accordance with these terms, to 0% variable fees (which is a component of Final Value Fees as defined on eBay.com.au) on 3 sales per Cycle on Eligible Listings.

  • “Eligible Listings” means item listings that are:

    • newly listed on eBay.com.au during the Promotion Period (i.e. they cannot be relisted items through ‘Good ‘til Cancelled (GTC) or auto-renewal);
    • in multi-quantity or single quantity fixed price or auction format only; and
    • not listed in one of the Excluded Categories (as defined below).

  • The variable fees will be discounted directly from the eBay seller fees applicable to the Eligible Listings when they are sold.

  • This promotion only applies to the variable fees on Eligible Listings that are sold during the Promotion Period.
  • eBay reserves the right to cancel or change the offer at any time.

What exclusions apply?

These Excluded Categories are in addition to any listings or categories restricted by eBay's prohibited and restricted items policies.
  • The Promotion only applies to variable fees (a component of your Final Value Fees). For the avoidance of doubt, the Promotion does not apply to the $0.30 (incl GST) fixed order fee for non-store subscribers (or otherwise have registered for a tax exempt status with eBay) or $0.33 fixed order fee (incl GST) for store subscribers, fees for optional features or services (including Feature Fees), international selling fees or any other fees set out at eBay.com.au, as varied from time to time. See our help pages on Selling fees without an eBay Store, eBay Stores selling fees, eBay Stores fees for registered businesses, as applicable, for more information
  • Eligible Listings will only receive the 0% variable fees until the listing renews, whether by auto-renewal or because the listing is GTC. After this, standard eBay fees will apply.
  • You may be excluded from the Promotion if your eBay account is subject to listing restrictions, suspended, restricted or made inactive, or if you fall below eBay’s minimum performance standards, prior to or during the Promotion Period.

Terms and Conditions for 50% Off Sendle Label Promotion

When does the promotion run?

  • The promotion runs from 00:00 (AEST) on 1 January 2023 and is available for a limited time only (“Promotion Period”). eBay reserves the right to cancel or extend the promotion at any time.

  • To access your three discounted labels, you must have an active eBay Plus membership at the time you print the labels. If your eBay Plus membership ends between the time of listing and the time you print the labels, you will no longer be eligible for this promotion. If you sign up to an eBay Plus membership to take up this offer, standard eBay Plus terms and conditions apply.
  • This promotional offer is not transferable or exchangeable.
  • The Promotion is linked to the eBay account under which it appears. Qualifying sellers must list using the User ID associated with that eBay account.
  • Members whose eBay accounts are temporarily or indefinitely suspended, restricted, or made inactive, or their seller standard falls to Below Standard prior to or during the Promotion Period are not eligible for this promotion.

What exclusions and other conditions apply?

  • The Promotion only applies to Sendle shipping labels on eBay’s labels platform and does not include Australia Post or any other shipping labels and services.
  • The Promotion does not apply to eBay selling fees including but not limited to Insertion Fees, Final Value Fees or fees for optional features or services (including Feature Fees), international selling fees set out at eBay.com.au, as varied from time to time.

      Always a good idea to keep a snap.
      Support claimed that I had no promotional offer and wanted to charge me 12% variable fees until I showed them the screenshot.

    • The Value on 03/01/2023 - 15:54

      I've had to engage with support for EVERY SINGLE free eBay sale I did.

      • shegeloaf on 03/01/2023 - 16:08

        I have accepted the offer and listed 3 items. Now the count says 0/3 used.

        Did you guys notice that?

        • desty on 03/01/2023 - 16:12

          Yep me too. We must have been posting the same thing at the same time (i made a new comment below at the similar time as you)

        • freoleo on 03/01/2023 - 16:18

          Should only be used when they sell right ?

          First 3 sold items?

          • shegeloaf on 03/01/2023 - 16:20

            @freoleo: Well i hope so. I don't want any surprises

            • MS Paint on 03/01/2023 - 16:26

              @shegeloaf: Said no customer if eBay ever

            • Fappo on 03/01/2023 - 17:14

              @shegeloaf: Yep, it will only count after an item sells, which kinda sucks if you want to list multiple items at a fixed price, not auction, as it just automatically applies it to the first items sold.(e.g. you can't set your most expensive items as 'fee free')

              • proudwanderer on 03/01/2023 - 19:52

                @Fappo: List your 3 most expensive items on the account that has the promo. List all other items on a different account without the promo.

          • whyisave on 04/01/2023 - 04:50

            @freoleo: It's not the first 3 "sold items".

            It's the first 3 successful & completed sales,
            ie.
            payment from the buyer needs to be made to the seller,
            and that's when the promotion gets triggered.

            I watched this closely last month (Dec. 2022),
            and noticed that I had made 3 sales,
            but the 0/3 counter was triggered, each time the payment was made
            not when the item was 'sold'.

        • fatpizza on 03/01/2023 - 16:38

          It counts up when you sell. I know this because it actually worked for me once! :P

        • mboy on 03/01/2023 - 16:39

          I’ve used this offer for the two previous months and I can confirm it’ll only ‘use’ one when your item sells.

        • I Smell Pennies on 03/01/2023 - 19:57

  • CptnObvious on 03/01/2023 - 13:12

    Don't forget it has to be a new listing (made from scratch). ie. the old listing which expired can't just be relisted, or otherwise ebay will charge you.

    • FireRunner on 03/01/2023 - 13:14

        Yes! exactly as I said in OP. I prefer this method

      • CptnObvious on 03/01/2023 - 13:17

        Yes that works, but the convenient thing to do was to cancel anything which didn't sell from previous promotions then relist. This used to work up until recently when ebay updated their t&cs

        • I Smell Pennies on 03/01/2023 - 13:17

          Yeah, it was the best until they changed it :(

    does this mean that we don't need to pay 13.5% fees when we sell an item via ebay?

    • I Smell Pennies on 03/01/2023 - 13:48
      +4

      Correct, you only pay the $0.30 fixed fee component of each sale

      • Nickbag on 09/01/2023 - 08:44

        I sold item yesterday and i can see the fees arounf 13.6% for that order deducted by ebay.

        • I Smell Pennies on 09/01/2023 - 13:27

          Hmm, did you activate the promotion? I sold 3 items the other day (worth $370 each) and was only charged 30c each.

          • Nickbag on 09/01/2023 - 13:30

            @I Smell Pennies: yes, i activated that and fight with them about this. now they are going to send the credit back to my account. i sold item for 750 and 13.5% was over 100$

    • I Smell Pennies on 03/01/2023 - 14:15
      +1

      No, it can sell anytime within 30 days after listing your item, as long as you list it before the end of the month.

      Example: you can list on 25th Jan and sell it on the 20th Feb etc

      Someone correct me if I'm wrong but this is what myself and a lot of people have been doing

      • Techie4066 on 03/01/2023 - 21:38

        I hope that's still the case

        For the avoidance of doubt, if the promotion is not redeemed by the end of the Cycle, it shall be forfeited by you and the discount will not carry over into the next Cycle (if any).

        eBay's wording is always confusing - this might just refer to activating the offer

      • Vita85 on 03/01/2023 - 23:14
        +1

        I sold something yesterday and was charged only 30c. Seemed to have carried over

    • whyisave on 04/01/2023 - 05:15

      eBay Help told me that as long as you list it during the promotion,
      but the item sells & payments received -outside- of the promotion,
      then eBay Help can still help in crediting any FVF that you may have been charged.

      So, different representatives interpret this in different ways,
      but to cover yourself, screenshot the offer and the T&Cs, if you need to claim afterwards.

  • browser on 03/01/2023 - 14:04

    How's eBay these days? Haven't sold anything using eBay for a long long time, hearing too many bad stories.

    Prefer F2F but things take a long time to sell due to limited audience, and a lot of people are lazy too busy to meet up.

    Had an item already for sale, tried doing 'sell similar' & also creating new listing completely from scratch, no matter what I do it's still saying "used 0 / left 3" in the seller overview.
    Item is fixed price, not from an excluded category & the original listing is ended.

    Just can't seem to get the promo to apply — anyone have any ideas?

    • I Smell Pennies on 03/01/2023 - 16:13

      the counter only goes up each time you actually sell your item, you can list 20 different items (example) and the first 3 to sell will count

        More specifically when you get paid for the item. If it's an auction the counter will not go up until the item is paid for.

    Just a note that I have always used "Sell Similar" and this promotion would still apply for those sales. But one of my sales today which was a sell similar listing didn't get the promotion applied so I suggest people create a new listing. I contacted ebay and they were good at waiving the fee this time but told me it would be a once off.

      For mine better off choosing the drop-off option if there's a local drop-off/collection point nearby. They're pretty bad when it comes to home collections not sure if it's their system or their courier drivers. Once you drop it off though they usually collect on the same day or the next.
