It looks like this is becoming a monthly thing for eBay sellers! I was able to take advantage last month so glad it's back this weekend.

What is the Promotion?

Sellers ("Sellers") who activate the offer, and pursuant to the terms and conditions set forth herein, list during the Promotion Period, will pay zero insertion fee and a final value fee of $1 per item for the first 5 listings created.("Promotion").

Eligible listings for the Promotion include auction-style, auction-style with the Buy It Now feature added, or fixed price formats.

Final value fees will still 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. However, the final value fee will be $1 per item sold (excluding taxes and shipping).

Please note: All existing selling limits on your account (as well as category and item limits) still apply. Listing fees may apply, depending on how many listings you have already created; learn more about seller fees, including the number of free listings per month, by viewing our everyday rate plan.

Anyone have any experience with this offer?

Could I cancel existing listings that do not have any bids and relist them on the weekend?

I signed up and sold one item just before the 30 days ended. It was hard to find the fee in the ebay menus but I'm pretty sure I'm only charged $1 final value fee....

It's much better to give us advanced warning like this. Takes time to get around to prepare the listing and item. Gonna post some items. If it sells great. If it doesn't keep it for the time being.

Thanks OP! Missed this the last time as I was having difficulties with the listing/site. Will give it another try this time around.

I can't afford to save that much!

Yes it works, they only charged me 1.05 for a 400.00 sale.

Cancel your listings now. Then on June 23rd go back to ebay and click "activate offer". Then go to your cancelled listings and click "sell similar" to relist. Read the terms and conditions because some categories such as heavy equipment and real estate are not eligible for this 1.00 promotion.

Thanks for the heads up, OP.

This is refreshing - generally eBay doesn't give advance notice and just springs the offer with 24-72 hours to act - and often, during the weekend when a lot of people are too busy to be bothered.

Good time to avoid final value fees and unload 5 big-ticket items. (If going the auction route instead of Buy It Now / Best Offer, do NOT set a reserve price with your auction or there will be fees owing whether the item sells or not.)

IKR ... it's usually executed in a less than ideal manner. I wish special offers for sellers could be saved in an e-wallet or digital coupon book for use at a later date (with a reasonable expiry period) , convenient for the seller. In a world with so much competition (i.e. Amazon, for starters) , I'm pretty sure eBay needs small-time sellers more than sellers need eBay.

No limit to the number of items you can list/sell? If so better then last time which had a small limit, I think 2.

I want to take advantage of this promotion to sell a few things I own on e-Bay. However, I actually never used it as a platform to sell goods before.

Any advice for a first timer? I'm worried about the rampant scams and such I read about online and the items I want to sell are valued at around $100~$300.

Its pretty safe. I sell quite a bit and never had a problem. Only mail to the address in the paypal invoice, use a postal service level that has delivery confirmation, and be prepared to pay out the ass for shipping anything via Canada Post.

I believe this promotion requires you to offer returns which I don't usually do because people are people. So make sure you insure your packages for the value of the item.

If you offer to ship there then they do automatically.

Sold an item last time for $1,000+ and was charged $1 final fee but the buyer canceled. Relisted the item and sold again instantly and was charged like $80 final fee. Contacted CS and they wouldn't adjust it. One more reason to not sell on ebay.

So the seller is at fault for the buyer canceling?

Yeah thats not ebays fault Because it's more like a technicality. Was it relisted the day after the due date etc...? I would have tried to verify first. It's a little annoying to get ahole of ebays customer service. But I have had them call me etc...and yes they have sorted out money issues from me.

I tried to sell a phone last time but it took 23 days to get a valid offer from a buyer with decent feedback. And then shipping + insurance offset any extra amount I'd get compared to Kijiji. Ebay also comes with lots of risks for new sellers. I'm sticking to Kijiji for the time being.
