Is it only for non stores? I didn't see any mention of that. Still worth the stores checking. It looks to be invitation only, but definitely worth checking.

As I do not have a store and I received the offer It would be for non store sellers.

I wish I knew what eBay's thinking was by providing all these offers and yet only making them avalable to a small number of sellers. Surely, the maths should balance in their favour. The more things I list, the more likely I am to sell something and the more final value fees they can collect. I guess there might be some thinking that if they fustrated us enough, we'll list some stuff with insertion fees, but unfortunately when you're selling stuff as cheaply as I do with free postage, $1.50 a pop is just out of this world. Or maybe that's the thinking: the stuff that I'm listing is too cheap and they would rather I was selective and list more expensive things? Mmm.

Yeah I feel the same way. My big acc 1900+ f/backs never gets the offers. So I only use my 40 listings although I'm not listing on it atm in the hope I start getting offers. My other 2 accounts often get the offers they have 450 and 26 f/backs. I was thinking it's because they want ppl with lower feedback scores to list items.

I think ink you are spot on with offer the free list to all, more listings potentially = more sales = more fees for eBay!

I haven't received an email offer but the freebies were sitting waiting to be accepted in the "Promotional Offers" section of my 'My eBay: All Selling' page (where they give details of the usual 40 monthly free listings).

No luck here either, naturally.

I think eBay Australia only wants sales of $10 and beyond, where the $1.50 listing fees won't do squat against the sale of the item. Do I need to sift through my posts to where I pitted the other major eBay sites against our prices? No-one in the entire world is charged $1.50 or $3.50 per listing when the freebies have ran out. Except Australia. Maybe all those bloated bytes that makes up the eBay website have to come from Europe, and shipping takes a lot of time and money...

And yes, there was no way whatsoever that would have fit within the strict five minute edit limit placed on this forum. Is there a place to complain to the moderators about how ridiculous the forums are? The only thing worse than the five minute limit is the word filter, which is almost down to 'clbuttic' levels. Or 'Gosh Dang It To Heck', if TV Tropes is your thing.

Thanks for the thought, but no luck with that.

I've generally received around 80% of promotional offers on offer. It's only these recent ones that I have totally missed out on... and the only big change that has happened in that time is that my star has ticked over from red to green with a 5000th feedback. Jeez, it would be annoying to discover that I'm getting excluded because I am selling so much stuff!

I do not think it is the star amount. I have tried about 5 times for this one and each time I get the usual announcement that it is by invite only.. I think I have had one email in the last seven invites. So no luck for me either.

Good luck to all hose who were lucky.

If you want to contact the Moderators you can use the board message system and message any one of them as you do with any member.

I suggest you message li.varia...she seems to get things done fairly promptly.
