I had a promotion like this a while back that I never used, do they come along regularly enough so I should hold tight or are they a once in a blue moon sort of thing?

They are called promotions. They hand pick who gets them. They vary every time. Like this on is £1 selling fee, if it sells for more than £10 you won't pay anymore than £1. Great for things that will sell for more than £10. They do like 25% off final value fee, n 75% off final value fee. I take advantage of all promotions when I get them. They are usually one a month, but are sometimes more. But sometimes you don't get one for longer! You really don't know when you will get it. Once they expire they expire. So take advantage.

I've had a few since I've started selling more. Think it must be about 1 a month since Jan, but the most recent one was on Monday there for 1 night! I missed the message so didn't list anything and have lots sitting about I could have listed as well so was a bit annoyed at that.

I've had quite a few this year so it's worth waiting if you have a lot of valuable stuff to sell. You'll get an email/ebay message when one is on so be sure to check your messages regularly.

I now only sell using these promotions, otherwise it's just too expensive.
I've noticed they are getting much more frequent, I've had 4 or 5 this year so far.
Maybe ebay are finally feeling the pressure from other FREE online selling apps...about bloody time too!

I think it depends on your seller rating how often you get the promotions. I

list a load of things in draft them complete them when there's a good promotion. It's not worthwhile otherwise - with both ebay and Paypal charges. I

've been getting a promotion about once a fortnight recently.

They usually do them a week before a bank holiday.
