why is my free listings that end on the 6/1 being used before the ones expiring on the 1/1 ??

[jackiegirl1311]

I have accepted the 100 free lisitings which expire on the 6 January...but I still had quite a few free lisitings from my usual 40 free listings for the month which expired on the 1st January. 

I would have thought when I did my new listings that the free listings that are due to expire first would be used first?

Does anyone else have this problem ?

Thank you

1 got 100 that i guess i wont use all them either

I don't see what difference it makes, if you have 10 free listings left then you can list 110 items up to the end of January and if you don't list that many you will have 100 minus the number listed out of the hundred plus 40 to use by Jan 6th. If you don't go over the 100 by the 6th you wil still have 40 free remaining.

Hi, you have to use up your own 40 free listing first, if its near the end of the month, before you accept the new 100 free ones.

I have just finished using mine up and got the new ones to do over the next week.

of course this is the first time I have tried this idea, and it worked. 

If we only get 3 days to do them, then it could be a different story.  Happy selling

if we get the 100 at the begining of the month or 2nd week, this is where you use the 100 first. and keep what ever you have left of your 40 to use later, just incase there is no more.

PJ you have misread the information.
THE OP has a number of free listings that expire on 31 December. And has accepted the 100 free listings that expire on January 6
And will receive a new allocation on January 1

The effective way would be to use the oldest listings first to give more time to list the next lot.
When I have had two lots of free listings it has always used the first expiry date lot up first.
That is the point the OP is making and seems to be a mistake.

I never even got the offer wish I Had. Is there a link to it or is it only certain sellers that get it?

The special offers ALWAYS get used before standard freebies. ALWAYS.

Look at the 100 free listings thread?
