I wish I knew how it worked internally, how it gives some people free listings but not others. Yes, it's considered "expired" on here as usual.

It didnt work for me today, but if previous experience is a guide, it might be worth re-trying in a few days time. TP usually posts the link around this date each month. In the past I have got it to work 3 days later than TP, ie. starting the 20th and running to the 30th each month. ( will advise the board if the pattern continues in 3 days time. )

Looking at the way the offer works in the past, my guess is that the 2664 promo is aimed at sellers who do not recieve the 3 or 4 free relists each month. If so that would actually seem fair. The sellers who recieve the 3 ( or is it 4 ) free relists are effectively getting 120 or 160 listings per month. Those who dont get the free relists only recieve 40 listings per month, without the 2664 offer.

Not coming up as "expired" for me, just "Unfortunately, this promotional offer is by invitation only".

Haha typical eBay responses - one message for some, different message for others!

I'm getting the usual expired message. No biggie. I did find a promotion starting on the 15th where you can get a voucher for selling your phone. I'm not planning on selling my phone but someone else might be interested http://sellercentre.ebay.com.au/promo/103520

I don't think that's the criteria, chameleon. I have a friend with two selling IDs who used to get 2664 on both IDs regularly, but now only on her busiest account. She gets free auto relists on both accounts.

I can't remember but I think I may have got 2664 once or twice when they first started them, and then nothing till about 3 or 4 months ago, and nothing since - and only on one ID that's fairly new to selling and doesn't sell a lot. I get the free relists on it and my other accounts.

Very interesting englishrosegardens - I would be interested to know if anyone who has success with the offer this time also gets the 3 or 4 free relists. I,m always happy to have theories blown out of the water LOL

My friend always gets the 2664 freebies around the start of the month. I think she just finished using her last lot a few days ago - and she always gets the free relists with them.

I think the people who get them are at different times to one another, eg. A might get them from 2nd to 11th, B might get them from 13th to 20th, C might get them from the 8th to the 16th, D might get them from the 25th to the 3rd, etc.

For anyone who does ever get them, check your freebie history (where the counters are at the bottom of your All Selling page) and you'll see when your last lot was, then you'll have an idea when you're likely to get the next lot. They seem to be a lot more regular than the others we get.

For anyone who can't get the link in the forums to work, try it every day of the month to see if they work for you at a different time to everyone else's.

Be aware that these ones always have the relists from other items come off the total, so either wait until the last day to accept them, or accept them straight away and use them up before anything else has a chance to relist and use them up. If you have stuff in unsold or in scheduled it's easy to start them off as soon as you accept the freebies.

Thanks for sharing but no luck for me. So frustrating! I can't remember the last time I got the offer.

Right on cue, it worked for me this morning after recieving the " promotion has expired" message for the last few days. 19th-28th for me. Looks like it is worth trying every couple of days if you recieve the "expired" message.

You're right Cham Like you the same time of the month (mine is the 15h) and I accepted it a few days ago.

So, the advice is ....... don't give up, keep trying

Been trying this for the past few days and still get "Unfortunately, this promotional offer is by invitation only." On 2 different Non Store Acconts. I think eBay dont like me.
