Paid GTC listings are now coming out of 40 free listings

On two accounts, paid GTC listings are using up listings out of the free monthly 40.

I contacted eBay about it today,and the contact there said it is a problem with their program.

I suggest keeping an eye on this if you have a mix of paid and free listings.

Ebay recently inplemented changes to non store accounts which saw all fixed term ( including 30 day listings ) with free relists rolled over to GTC listings. The was ebays program works, these automatically come off of your 40 free listings.

 

There was supposed to be a grace period where the remainder of the unused free relists would not be charged, but this has not happened. There are several other threads on the "selling " forum with extensive discussion on the topic.

Another dishonest move by eBay.

i received no notification of this and have become distrustful of this selling platform.

Their so called “Health Check” should be done on themselves.

That's exactly what they've done (the process they were using wasn't working so they came up with this GTC

 

stuff to get some revenue rolling back into their coffers).

 

Everything eBay does is to improve their own bottom line and they don't care how it impacts sellers (they just

 

make out it's to "help" sellers but in reality it's only designed to helps eBay).stubborn_smiley_by_mirz123-d4bt0te_zps12f1a5a3.gif

Yes you did.   If you know about the Health check, then you read it.

As far as I know I've received no notification at all about any health check and the only way I know about the

 

health check is due to this thread,good.gif

 

So I've got 2 listings up that are now GTC so will I be charged when they relist or will they come of the 40 per

 

month free listings or the $1 FVF if they relist on the weekend if I accept that offer?blush-1.gif

 

Or do I just end them and relist as an auction?

or will they come of the 40 per month free listings if you have any left

 

Alternatively accept the offer for the weekend and get free listings or the $1 FVF if they relist on the weekend if I accept that offer?blush-1.gif

 

Or do I just end them and relist as an auction?   Yes unless you have free listings left or if you first accept the weekend offer BEFORE listing


same answer, different ways 🙂

Saaay, you is tryna confuse me.

 

When they relist, they'll come off the 40 free.

 

If you take up the $1 w/end offer, you have to end them before they auto relist or you will be charged a relist fee.

 

Auction? - you should know by now which will sell better  hahahaha

 

OP mentioned the Health Check, so they must've known about it.

 

edit:

 

Curraone said it better and faster.
