eBay

Just in time for my anniversary weekend (aka, when I have Other Plans), eBay have announced another free listing weekend (14 & 15 June 2014). It is the first one since the 20 free eBay listings a month has been implemented, so I’m glad that they’re still running them.

The usual rules apply – you must have been “invited” (but try to list something anyway, as not everyone has their email alerts turned on) and not be a below standard seller. Listings include both auctions and buy it now listings, limited to 100.

For the full terms and conditions, click here.

As usual, it might be worth listing items today on a one day auction, then relisting anything that doesn’t sell tomorrow for a longer auction.

20 free eBay listings a month http://fromalditoharrods.com/20-free-ebay-listings-a-month/ http://fromalditoharrods.com/20-free-ebay-listings-a-month/#comments Tue, 13 May 2014 08:30:46 +0000 http://fromalditoharrods.com/?p=1564 Read More]]> 20 free eBay listings a month

Selling on eBay has just become a whole lot easier. From 13 May 2014, eBay are now offering sellers 20 free listings a month across all categories except Motors, starting at any price. For any subsequent listings, the charge will be 35p per listing, regardless of the starting price. This replaces the current promotion where sellers can list 100 items a month, starting at 99p, for free. You will also be able to schedule 20 items for free a month - so you can start your listings any time that you want.

The final value fees still stay at 10% and there is no budge on eBay’s policy about charging fees for postage costs.

You get 20 free listings per calendar month, and you can see how many listings you’ve used so far by signing in to eBay, clicking on “All Selling” under the “Sell” heading and scrolling down.

ebay 20 free listings a month

What this means for me?
I will now make an effort to ensure I list 20 items per month, but I will focus on my big ticket/higher value items first. If they have sold and I still have free listings, then I’ll turn to my cheaper items.

What does this mean for free listing weekends?
At the moment this is uncertain. There is some speculation that these 20 free listings a month will replace the free listing weekends, but eBay have said to “look out for our price promotions that we will continue to run regularly. These may give you opportunities to list more items without incurring an insertion fee.”
