New Auction Promo for 500 auctions starts today
Please note: invited sellers must activate the Promotion by selecting "Activate offer" in the invitation email or on the Promotion landing page. Items listed prior to a seller activating the Promotion will not be eligible for the Promotional Rate. Note that for listings with Good ‘Til Cancelled duration, the promotional rate only applies to the initial listing; renewals will count toward your monthly listing allotment if available, or will be charged the standard insertion fee rates.
What is the Promotion?
Invited sellers who activate the offer and then create a listing in the auction-style format, auction-style with Buy it Now format, or fixed price format, pursuant to the terms and conditions set forth herein ("Qualifying Listing"), will pay no insertion fee per item listed ("Promotion") for up to 500 listings during the Promotion Period (as defined below). All existing selling limits on your account (as well as category and item limits) still apply, and may prevent you from creating the maximum number of listings in this Promotion. The Promotion is in addition to the free listings per month as part of the everyday rate plan.
The Promotion does not apply to listings with 1-day or 3-day duration, final value fees, or optional advanced listing upgrade and supplemental service fees. Final value fees will be applied to the total amount of the sale, including the cost of the item, shipping, and any other fees a seller may charge—excluding any sales tax. Fees for optional listing upgrades (such as reserve price, bold, listing in 2 categories, etc.) still apply. For listing in 2 categories, you will be charged at standard rates for the second category. Please note: Not all upgrades are available in all listing flows.
Who’s eligible?
This Promotion is available to invited sellers who: (i) received an email and/or message in My eBay; (ii) activated the promotion from the invitation email or on the Promotion landing page; and (iii) meet eBay’s minimum seller performance standards. Please sign in to My eBay and view your Seller Dashboard to verify whether your account is currently meeting the standards.
When is it?
This Promotion will begin on Thursday, April 7, 2016, at 00:00:01 PT (12:00AM plus one second), and will end on Wednesday, April 13, 2016, at 23:59:59 PT (11:59PM plus 59 seconds), for listings on www.ebay.com (the "Promotion Period").
How do I activate the Promotion?
Sellers that have been invited to participate will automatically receive the Promotion after they activate the Promotion from the invitation email or the Promotion landing page, and then create Qualifying Listings on the US site at www.ebay.com or eBay Motors at www.ebay.com/motors (Parts & Accessories and Automotive Tools & Supplies only) through the Sell Your Item form, eBay Seller Tools, eBay Mobile applications, and most third-party tools. Any listings created prior to the time of activation will not be eligible for the Promotion. For sellers listing with any tool other than the latest version of the Sell Your Item form (SYI 3.0), the Promotional Rate may not be shown during the listing process. Instead, the discount will be reflected in the "Seller Account" section in My eBay, under the Account tab, as well as in your next invoice.

There is nothing on the US boards about this special yet.
I don't really need it this time unless it will cover my .com listings.
As for .ca I am still using the100,000 free listing offer.
We should get a pool going to put every ones listings under 1 account for these huge specials!

Have you checked your Selling Manager on .com ? That is where I found my invitation.

Unfortunately, this promotional offer is by invitation only.
I guess eBay are trying to get rid of me on .COM lol. Didn't get invited for any of the recent .COM only promo.

Just received email message from eBay.com with the invitation (I had found it earlier this morning in my Selling Manager on eBay.com)

I guess you are one of the chosen few this time. You won the coin flip they use.

I am still individual.
It may have to do with where your account is registered. I am registered on .ca. Even though I list a lot on .com, when I asked the question on chat, If you are registered on .ca and list on .com, you may not be eligible for .com specials.
They did not give a direct yes or no, but the impression I got was only accounts registered on .com will be eligible for .com specials since the currency change in Canada.
