why have all the promotional listings of 100 - 200 free have disappeared. I am losing items now.

I run 8 accounts on ebay because i sell for a few different people to help them out. i usually have about 200 items on each account. I cannot afford listing fees, so only list with free listings. This has run quite well when we were getting a couple of free promotionals per month of 100 - 200 listings plus the standard 40 free per month.

I have only received 1 promotional listing for 150 items for 1 account since about March. I have since lost hundreds of items from these accounts because my usolds were over 60days old, as i can only list 80 in 60 days with the 40 free lists per month.

All that time and effort to list those items has now been wasted. i have contacted ebay several times begging for help, but like i said, i only got 1 account out of trouble, with the free listings they gave me.

It takes a lot of time to list 840 items. I cannot afford shop fees, so i don't know what to do.

There is an offer for 150 free listings available now ( non store holders ) . If you scroll down the selling page there should be a link in one of the other threads titled 150 free listings. ( unless it has been removed ) . We recieved freebies last month as well. Keep an eye on the boards as people post the links up every time feebies are available and often the links work even when you have not recieved the offer.

I have checked everywhere, i didn't receive it. I asked ebay about this and they said it is Random. Some get it, some don't.

That often happens to me too, but the links that forum users post on the forums often still work. This is not always the case. Sometimes a message comes up saying you are not elligable. I would say the links on the forums work for me around 50% of the time even when I have not recieved messages from ebay about the offers..

 

Best advice is to keep a regular watch on the forums for the links.

I would suggest you keep your listing information on your computer.

 

Descriptions in Notepad and pictures in a picture folder. That way you can easily recreate a listing.
