The Promotion is in addition to the free listings per month as part of the everyday rate plan.

Won't be the first time ebay staff forgot to proofread the offer details. The dates to trust are the those showing in your promotional offer section.
So a SUNDAY 20 to SATURDAY 26 offer. Don't start listing too soon.

I got the last one but not this one. But I don't get too excited because I only have a handful of items on .ca on both of my accounts .... mainly items that are not big sellers on either site or cosmetic items of more interest to Canadian women than American (e.g. Lise Watier). I should have confirmed with Raphael at the weekly session on Wednesday that those of us who are registered on .ca will never ever again be invited to a promo on .com. Once confirmed, I can stop hoping that the next promo will include both sites.

Hi Jt, I too am wondering if the free listings for .com is gone for me too. I sell on both sites, but I prefer to sell in US $. Right now it is not too much of a problem as I have plenty but as I list more inventory, it would be nice to have free listings on both sites.
11-18-2016 09:24 PM
I got both so did take advantage for a few but prefer to list on .com in US $ so this doesn't help me too much. But hey its free, so I am not going to complain. Last month, I went over my thousand (store allotment) by 70 items. So it cost me a bit, this will save me this month because of the free ones.

I know you got a store a few months ago. So, how many free listings do you get on each of .ca and .com. You say your allotment is 1000 .... is that 500 on each? And at what cost? $19.95 a month or $24.95 (once your promotional store offer ends)?
11-18-2016 11:11 PM
Hi Jt, I get 1000 on both .ca and .com, total 2000. I love having a store. I have a premium store which I think in another month will be $59.95, totally worth it, I have a lot less stress now with a store.

Thanks music for going to the trouble of posting a screenshot. I could have looked up the details I know, but I knew you would probably offer some helpful comments along with the information.
On this account I'm posting from, I have no problem with listing fees, since I seldom have more than 100 items for sale. I have about 100 more items to list but each one takes so long because every item is different. The descriptions alone take a long time. It seems that I spend two or three hours every evening listing items but I only get 4 or 5 done. If I go over my 50 on .com, at most I would have another 20 or so at 30 cents each ( since I do have a few on .ca).
Items on my media account, I can list more quickly. I have about 250 listings with about another 100 to go. For me to spend $25.00 a month for a store (without a yearly subscription) is not that advantageous. I can see how it can be for you with so many listings and sales. But for me, if I even had 50 listings over my limit, it still only amounts to $15.00. So, items which are listed for $10 or less, I just let end and I don't re-list for a while. And each month I convert a few more to CAD.
I can see how a store would be much less stressful and it's working well for you. Good work!

Activated the offer at the top of the page. Did one test listing and was charged 5 cents. **bleep**???
11-19-2016 02:23 AM
And it did not take anything off my number of free listings for the month.

Yes, I think you are right. It does say November 20th at the top when I click on the link. Yet lower down in the text it says the 18th. I will wait until the 20th and try again then.
