no free listings this month?

[kathskollection]

Does anyone know why Ebay has not offered extra free listings this month?   I rely on free listings and haven't had any notifications about any.  Wondering if I've missed them, or they just haven't been offered.

thanks,

There is an invitation one to some

There's an offer on at the moment

Keep checking this board regularly as someone always posts a link to any offers.

There have been 2 free listing promotions this month. One is current and the other one 2 weeks ago.

You shouldn't rely on the free listing promotions as they could be halted at any time. If you are finding the 40 a month isn't enough, create some more selling accounts.

Thanks for that.  

One of the conditions say:

This Promotion is open only to members validly registered on eBay.com.au who have received the email invitation to participate. This invitation is not transferable or exchangeable.

I didn't receive this as an email invitation, and I usually do, so I'm wondering if Ebay hand-picks sellers each month, or whether it's a general invitation?  

It does say invitation only.

Click Accept Offer then check your All Selling page under Promotional Offers.

If you get the message "Unfortunately, this promotional offer isn't available to you." then you haven't been accepted.

I've never received emails but I've been able to get the free offers.

Well Poo..... it's not valid for me either. 

[bigbrickshop]

No, it's only for non-store IDs

[treasuress.4207]

Fair enough.... we get lots of free listings... it's only fair that non-stores get some too. 

I don't rely on them by any means, but I certainly make the most of them when I can hehe

I am a non-store seller, which is why I like to get the free listings, as I only get 40 free listings a month normally.

For those other non-store sellers who might be struggling and want some answers - I rang Ebay and asked them about the lack of free listings this month, asked them about the invitation mentioned in the posts above and the lady assured me that it wasn't available unless I'd received an email inviting me to join in.  

Anyway, I clicked on the link so kindly provided above, clicked 'accept' and tried some listings, and wasn't charged for them.   Perhaps I just missed that email (which I doubt).

Just posting that for future reference.

thanks to everyone for your input.
