New fixed price promo runs for the next 5 days Oct 25-29 Includes 3-, 5-, 7- and 10-day durations. This promo includes fixed price in many of the categories that usually do not allow fixed price promos.

Too bad it's only up to 10 days, not 30 days, so personally I don't think that makes much of a difference compared to the 10 days auctions... and for only 10 days I'd prefer auctions over FP.

But well it's free so I'll take whatever there is

I got this email but when you click the link in the email for the terms of the promotion it brings you to an outdated page. It is a promo for a past June 2014 listing sale that also included 30 day fixed price duration listings. I never got this notice in my Ebay messages so I'm wondering what the real terms are, if there is one at all. The link below is the actual hyperlink in the email promo I received.

See below: http://pages.ebay.com/promo/2014/0618/ListNow.html#terms

Amazingly, this offer works properly.

If you can use the automatic relist feature, then you can have double the time for the listing.

my email link takes me to:

List today for 5 days, without using the automatic relist. Then when it ends on Friday, relist for 10 days, this time checking the automatic free relist box. This way you will get 25 days for free. 🙂

Can't use promotion, charged me toward my monthly limit...

Wow, who would have have thought. It's yet another promo! These promos are fantastic. With so many amazing, rare, high quality items that have never been listed on ebay before, I just can't decide what to buy first.

30 day BIN is not eligible

If you have the promo it should show on your sellers page in the Promotional Offers section.

Good only for 3, 5, 7, and 10-day BIN listings (30-day is not included)

I couldn't find anywhere on the offer that says whether we have to pay the extra money for the 10 day listing. It just says that we can list for 10 days. Usually it spells out that the 10 day listing is free. Does anyone know?

The promo is for Fixed Price, there is no extra duration fee on FP listings.

Looks like someone at eBay did a big goof by sending this promo for Fixed Priced when it should be for Auction-Style.

It doesn't make sense for only 10-day duration for fixed priced auctions.

I didn't get the free listings promos for the 3rd time in a row! Guess eBay didn't want my final value fees?? When I got the free listings promos in the past, they got HUGE final value fees from me and now that I didn't get those free promos for the 3rd time in a row, their loss!!!

Very simple no free promos to me = no huge final value fees from me!! Duh to eBay!!

And what is worse that I have some unsold items in the inventory and last night I am seeing some of them disappeared!! I thought we can hold any unsold items in the inventory up to 60 or 90 days but it disappeared on the 30th day!! What is up??

Did eBay changed from 60-90 days to 30 days now or what? I am not really happy as I put lots of work in posting them and now I have to start them all over again (second time since last year!).

Again I hate it when eBay sends the free listings promos to "Invited Sellers only"! Send them to everyone to be fair!

Does anyone know if this promo applies to DVD listings? I tried to list one and it wanted to charge me a five cent listing fee. I read the listing promo info page and do not see DVD as an excluded category, so just wondering?

DVD's are included.

Good only for 3, 5, 7, and 10-day Buy-It-Now listings (30-day is not included, and neither are auctions)

theodoreides · ‎10-27-2014

Since categories not normally allowed for free listings are included in this BIN promotion, does anyone know if there will be a charge when the autolist feature renews the item?
