25 years and No free listings special?

[postit4you]

Well, one would think that there would have been a celebration with sellers by having a large free listing offer. Doesn't seem like that is important to eBay the sellers earn extra money. No, I don't want a store and yes I get the 200 free monthly but 25 years silver anniversary and nothing for sellers.  Somethings never change. What do you think eBay should have done for sellers?

Reading this prompted me to peek at the promotional offers on my dashboard, and I didn't realize that last month's offer of 50,000 additional free listings in select categories has been extended to the end of the year. I know it doesn't help your situation, but I'm happy for this bonus.

"What do you think eBay should have done for sellers?"

I don't "expect" anything, I don't think I need to feel "entitled" to anything...

It's "Their" birthday, not mine...

I have been on other sites where they "celebrated" a birthday but I don't recall there being anything overly special given out to sellers...

However, eBay has offered this!:

and this on .COM

I signed up for the birthday party-- or whatever that is-- to get the free tee shirt.

I just got an email from eBay giving me a $25 coupon for being a member since 2000. EBay anniversary gift. I believe it is in US $ since min purchase is $25 us.

Edit. EBay message not email.

Edit 2. Dated Saturday August 29 11 am!!!! Slow message. Must be the pandemic lol.

Edit 3. It is a coupon for $25 US. Just read it again.

I also got the US$25 coupon but only of this (low activity) account which has been selling continuously since 1999. My more recent selling id's did not.

eBay has been handing out free listings like crazy since March and giving them to everyone. They just QUADRUPLED the number of monthly free listings for small non-store accounts and also bumped up the free listings for Store accounts.

As someone else posted....it's EBAY's anniversary not yours, what did you get eBay as a present?

I just spent my $25 US ($32.60 CDN) eBay anniversary coupon.

$39. CDN item/free shipping... No complaints here.
Thank you very much!

Of which, as you know, was worth sheetski on a  steekski to some of us. Ask me how I know.  Only been here since 2004 so got bupkis. Well that may not be totally true. I did get to sit and wonder why, suddenly, just one single solitary sale in the past three days. Thanks for that.

I have been a member since 2006 (though didn't buy anything until 2008, started selling sporadically since 2009). I guess my account is still too "new" for the coupon =(

Didn't see anything about a free t-shirt. Is that for "older" members only as well?

It's part of the seminar/party/ celebration in a couple of weeks.

I'll probably drop in but I tried to Zoom a few panels from the When Words Collide science fiction convention -- a con I love and panels I really wanted to attend-- but found them stressful.

Perhaps I really am getting old and inflexible.

Sigh.

Also I couldn't wear my Nanny Ogg cosplay to a Zoom meeting, so , bummer. After I finally figured out how to make the stuffed cat stay on my shoulder.
