Promo starts Monday August 4th and runs until the 8th. It appears that you can list fixed price in most of the previously restricted categories. These are the only restricted ones. eBay Motors Passenger Vehicles, Motorcycles, Boats, Power Sports, Other Vehicles, Motors Local Market, Real Estate, and Classified Ad listings.

All existing selling limits on your account (as well as category and item limits)

another contradiction or not, There are total exclusions and then there are category limits and item limits. You figure it out. I got the invite on my account that I can list 200 items on..

Just super. The exact kind of promotion I need as most of my items are in the restricted categories. EXCEPT I didn't get the promotionmail.
JUST FREAKING SWELL!

I didn't get it either.

I didn't get it either 😞

I'm so angry about this. I could have really used this promotion given how **bleep**py sales have been. Thank-you Ebay for another kick in the teeth!

I did not get the invitation but it does not mean I am not eligible. Same for all of you.
Check your "selling manager" tomorrow (once the promotion becomes effective) under "Promotional Offers" (right panel) and it may be there!

I didn't get it either. Listed something after 10 PM Pacific time and I didn't get it. Oh well, it's pretty slow right now hard to get motivated. Maybe next time.

According to the info, you have to activate it first. Check your my ebay page or selling manager to see if you are invited and you can activate it from there.

Why so many? I don't think there could be that many people who have 15000 items to list.

As predicted last night, no email, no message, yet, I have been invited.

"I don't think there could be that many people who have 15000 items to list."
It is your choice, if invited, to list 5, 50, 500, 5,000 or whatever number of listings for "free".
Personally I expect to relist 100 to 150 items. It is all good!

I noticed a typo.......in the first sentence it reads both auction-style and fixed format.
eBay Stores sellers (“sellers”) who activate the promotion and list in the auction-style or fixed price format, pursuant to the terms and conditions set forth herein, will pay no insertion fee per item listed ("Promotion") for up to 15,000 additional listings during the Promotion Period as defined below.

You are correct.
The mistake only appears on eBay.ca promotion page. The eBay.com page correctly states "fixed price listings" only.
It is not the first time the eBay.ca page gives the wrong information. Unfortunately.
Carelessness, that is what it is. Rush to get the job done. Understaffing. Whatever.
Just to make sure, I just tested listing an auction on eBay.ca and it was not included as a "free listing" in the current promotion.
