Just received an email Promotional Offer - thought pity I don't sell items worth over $100 - but take note of *
IT'S TIME TO SAVE WHEN YOU SELL
List an item over $100 or more and save 15% off your final value fees.
Take Up Offer ►
*Other fees may apply. See full T&Cs.
When?
- The Promotion runs from 20 October 2014 to 24 October 2014 AEST ("Promotion Period").
What is the Promotion?
- 15% off the final value fee for:
◦Items listed and sold for $100 or more, where
◦Items listed during the Promotion Period in Fixed Price or Auction format on eBay.com.au. *
Who is eligible for this Promotion?
- Only store members are eligible
http://sellercentre.ebay.com.au/promo/2079
This place really does my head in :- I thought that specification * may explain why I noticed on my invoice today, that last month I received several FVF discounts on items that sold for less than $100 but were Fixed Price, as I had taken up the offer and used it (I thought) for one custom made order listing.
So I figured, perhaps all this time I have been mis-interpreting the conditions (and I think, so have a lot of other small value item sellers), so I try to accept the Offer - click the Link in the email they sent me - uh uh, NO, I do not qualify !?!
Unfortunately, this promotional offer isn't available to you.
Maybe I should go away and come back later - because nothing much seems to be working here at the moment
Good luck to those who are able to take advantage of it !

Not working for me either despite the fact that I received an email specifically inviting me.

Totally useless for us.
Even if you bought 10x of our items we would struggle to make $100.
So we just trashed that invite.

Go figure

I told them I was ready to list, but the offer wasn't working.
I will try again later.

Wow, suprise suprise, they've done it again then - stoofed up
I totally get what everyone's saying, I don't have anything anywhere near $100 listed either, but have been very lucky on the two occasions where I have been working on big custom orders this offer just happened to be available at the right time - so those occasions taught me to always take up the offers because you just never know what's around the corner
Plus, the other point I was trying to make, I think because I had in fact accepted the offer, I somehow managed to get the discount off FVF's for items under $100 that I listed during that period as well - again - go figure . . . . obviously 15% off 9.?% fvf's on low value items doesn't amount to much, a few cents, but as they say never look a gift horse in the mouth ! (What a crazy saying !) and better in our pockets than theirs
So, worth accepting regardless I reckon, just on the off chance
I wonder will they extend it to make up for lost time with it not working ? And pigs might fly !!

Same here. When I checked the last invoice we had FVF discounts on items that were less than $20 but they may have been listed during the offer in September when there was no min value to be eligible.
