FREE LISTINGS YEAH

Yeah, it's on my ebay sold page, it's on my ebay all selling page. More importantly did the link the OP put there work for you? if not you might want to try unblocking ads temporarily.

Re invitation.

 

I get the doubts due to the inconsistent terms and conditions with the actual process of successfully accessing free listings, but tierd of the furphy creation around these offers and the active discouragement of sellers to use them - rather than encouraging sellers to clarify with eBay CS re doubts about eligibility. 

 

IMO - you get access to free listings, or you don't. 

 

If you click the link you accept the offer OR you are advised the promotional offer is not available to you. 

 

If you get the freebies they appear under your promos on your selling page.

 

These offers have always been run like this for the past couple of years.

 

If sellers are unsure IMO you are better off to ring CS to confirm the offer they accepted is available to them, rather than rely on board naysayers and pass them up .



No Banner ads for me either. I find sometimes I get the banners, sometimes I dont. I have always tried the links that people post and most times ( including today, thanks OP  ) they work. I cant see why people would have concerns about accepting the offers as I have never experienced or heard of anyone else experiencing problems from the offers. I rarely read the terms now as like you I figure one of two things will happen. "Its gonna work, or it aint"

HI guys

 

Does anyone know, or have an opinion, as the whether I would get the offer if I open a new store today?  Thinking of converting a lot of my auctions, on another ID, to store listings.  thanks.

How was I being a naysayer? I was merely pointing out in the T&C's the reason why some people may not be able to accept the offer if they were having issues. I didn't write the T&C's. I know with the non store free listings, if it says invitation only with a mention of an ID, then that's exactly what it means.

 

I think you need to find a spot in the sun and have a saucer of milk. Sheesh.

finally got the email..

pro's and con's

Pro's.. save lots of money in listing fees,

can relist items in inventory before ebay loses the pictures..

 

Con's.. rushing to relist without checking categories, descriptions etc with a fine tooth comb may result in unwanted defects!

 

I think it will be a slow process to be safe, and might get to use 2% -10% of them if I sit here for the next 5 days...

Will be hard not to throw caution to the wind and just relist in bulk! a method which never used to have potentially such dire consequences!

Did you try the link lizzy? You have a store.

 

Or did you wait / are you waiting for the email ?

 

I never wait for email addressed to my IDs.  They sometimes never come and I would have missed out on the free listings then and the $$$savings.

 

I try the link on all accounts.  Like other eBayers, when the link works I have never been charged listing fees for those listing fees.

Yes, thank you. Working on it.

how funny, they want us to find 10,000 items to sell, and when we do they will throw us away... and more listings, more risks of defects!

and its not actually the fees that concern me,... I am very suspicous of ebay, and imagine if I click on a link, I will get an email saying ..." you violated the t&c's , by not responding to a personal email, good bye and good riddance"

that's what I worry about
