Hi there ....

.... just keep your eye on this page and someone will post them as soon as they come up.

They've been very erratic lately and it's hard to tell when it will happen. In fact I had more than I needed last week 🙂 (and I rarely get an invitation).

Don't forget to try http://sellercentre.ebay.com.au/promo/2664 every so often. It seems to come up regularly every four weeks for me.

Keep trying and good luck 🙂

It would be great if Ebay dished out these free listing offers to me. Everyone else seems to get them, i never get any offers, i am forced to wait for monthly 40 free listings, and 40 is very limiting.

Does Ebay even understand that when there's no selling going on they don't get their precious sale fees either??

Wizardess, you have a lot of photos missing from your listings.

Or is it just me?

We had unlimited free listings a fortnight ago, so it is unlikely we will get any more for a fortnight at least.

No - ' View Image ' in too many items.

Take a look at your images.

I have the images in my Avon listings just not at the front where can be seen in searching because Ebay kept removing my Avon listings saying i couldn't use their images, so i have no option but to do it this way or they get removed. I'm just trying to make ends meet in my life, i don;t need this **bleep** form Ebay.

Why don't you just take photos of your items and use them? Problem solved.

Because she doesn't have the items Tippy.....she is taking orders on ebay then including them with her monthly order to Avon. They are only posted to the ebay customers after they are received from Avon.

A recipe for disaster if you ask me and perhaps the reason she cannot use stock photos.

But surely she could take photos once she has the items,

and before she posts to buyers?

The policy for pre-sales says it's ok to list

Policy overview

Pre-sale listings generally consist of items that are offered before they're available to the general public, such as video games and custom-made items. These items often aren't in the seller's control or possession when they're listed.

As long as her handling time is long enough. But if something doesn't turn up in

the order from Avon...........................

It's more dropshipping than pre-ordering, though.

And I am fairly sure Avon has stipulations about selling outside of their party plan.

wizardess's issues, but.

Probably didn't expect to get their marketing model exposed while begging for freebies.

Well, if ebay keep taking them down and she keeps putting them up,

I know who's gunna win.

Under the radar, but for how long?

Gee, she thinks eBay is worried about using stock photos. Imagine if they found out she was advertising another site she sells on in her listings. That's an even bigger offence than using stock photos!

My mum used to be an Avon lady, years ago, long before the internet. Stuff was quite often on back order, meaning it was another month before the customers got it. I certainly wouldn't be risking "preorders" like this. But that's just me.

Well then, that hole ain't getting any smaller

Tippy I was an Avon lady many years ago and it was not on to advertise in any way other than to go door to door in the area you were allocated.

I am sure things have changed over the years but I doubt that Avon would approve of their goods being sold on ebay....it could well be why the OP's listings are being taken down.

Re: are there any 100 free listings

*tippy*toes* — Mon, 11 Apr 2016 11:13:57 GMT

I wouldn't want to be in her shoes when eBay finds out. And they will find out, because they always do.

I would assume that if Avon allowed their current items to be sold on eBay, they'd be selling them here themselves. If someone is selling stuff off that they've bought because they didn't want it any more, that's one thing, but to be taking orders and submitting said orders is a completely different ball game.

I haven't bought Avon for years, is there a mark up? If there is, I'm sure Avon wouldn't like that. If there's not, what's the point? You'd be losing money after paying eBay their fees.

I noticed that one photo has been poached from someone else because it's got someone else's watermark on it.
