New Promo 5 Free listings including Final Value Fees

Showed up in My eBay Promos

http://pages.ebay.ca/promo/2015/1016/FiveFree.html

You must get the promo. I would suggest waiting to get the promo so that you have 5 high priced items ready to list so the 5 free are not wasted on low value listings.

Or just end 5 of the most expensive current listings and relist them to take advantage of this promo. I wonder if that works?

Finally! The moment that I've been waiting for; I can now list the Hope Diamond that I have been sitting on all this time. Oh, and all the Rembrandts I've carelessly propped up against my basement walls.

Or maybe you might have one of these hanging around the attic: 

Item #  290507191333

(Sometimes it's fun to pick a category and sort by highest price first - it's amazing what you'll find.  Why this seller inserted all those "9's" in the number, I have no idea.  Is $4,299,999 really less expensive than $4,300,000?).

Gee, I live in a 200-year old house (not uncommon around here BTW), maybe I'll tear up all the floorboards and see if somebody hid something a century ago!

I didn't see a Best Offer on that listing. I'd buy it for $4,299,998 with the savings from my '5 Free listings including Final Value Fees'.

Does anyone know if the 5 free listings include "sell similar" items?  Thanks!

[forever-lv]

It does say to use the ebay selling form - so I'm thinking it does not include relists or sell simlar.

[momcqueen]

It worked fine with my relists. They were included. I can't speak for the Sell Similar. 

[rose-dee]

I've tried it with "Sell Similar" and it seems to have worked.

I used "relisted" on eBay.ca and eBay.com, both worked fine!

Unfortunately, this promotional offer is by invitation only.

I have not been invited.  

Too bad as I have several listings (auction and fixed price) offered at $100+++ (both sites) where zero FVF would have been nice.

Oh well, life does go in.

[momcqueen]

Oh, that is too bad. Really. I was invited but as a promo, its use for me is limited. I expected it was a consolation prize because the hundreds of free listings for basic store subscribers (of which I am NOT) started the same day. I got nothing from the last 'free listings for everyone except you' announcement except a vague sense of injustice.

I spoke with eBay this morning.  It works for all new listings and also all relists and sell similars.  However, while it states that it includes Good Until Cancelled listings, it is only valid for a maximum of 30 days.

Big benefit to having multiple ids on the go if they are going to have promos like this.  Got it on all of mine.   Well worth using .ca and .com regardless of what you normally do for this one
