I'm out of listings!

Has there been any promotions for free listings for shops?

Thanks

I have a job keeping up with the 200 I already have included but I do have another 2 selling ids without a store so I have the capability of listing 280 items a month with reslisting automatically 3 times on the non store ids.

If you consistently want to list more than your included store allowance then perhaps look into going up to next level.

In response to up grading my store, that is $500 a month. If I was selling at hight volume like the chinese stores, sure that would be fine, but I'm not.

If I opened another account, which I have, I do not get the sales like I do from my shop, as my shop is trusted and have repeat customers and many followers.

Yes, I understand that some fellow ebayers don't like people asking for more free listings, as it will cost us in the long run. In some ways, I totally agree. But at the moment, ebay has changed, and costing small to medium sellers potential sales, due to the 100 % refund guarantee.

I thought maybe, ebay would be generous and give us some free listings for Christmas, as the more you sell, the more they earn. I am just trying to stay afloat.

Ebay is a no win situation at the moment.

I agree with all that have posted retrovintage.

I have also tried several non-store IDs but they do not perform in anyway like my stores do, though at the moment they are all doing dismally, particularly the last couple of months.

I'd be very happy if eBay gifted some store auctions so I could run some loss leaders to try and generate some traffic so I could make eBay some money

I agree totally my 2 other ID's hardely sell at all even if it is a similar item to the one on my Store..and at a lower price!!!

Used to do OK with the other ID's but not anymore ...don't quite understand it and I have 100% feedback on those ID's too!

Free Listings from Ebay are really the only reason I have these other ID's and even with 100 some months no sales at all

Looks like it's available to store owners and/or by invitation only. 😞

I'll be scheduling some listings over the Christmas period as I'm working, so am not going anywhere. It's just me, DH and the sheep, so will be quiet.

Thanks Curraone for the link. I've accepted it and will hopefully get plenty scheduled over the next few days ready to go live when the promotion starts.

I'll also be hitting the auctions on Christmas Day. Most people are too busy with family stuff, so there are plenty of bargains to be had! The last few years I've got some real bargains on Christmas Day, especially later in the afternoon and evening, when the US buyers are doing their Christmas stuff and not looking at eBay.

Good for you, sheepie. Grab those bargains.

Merry Christmas to you and yours.....
