HI
I'm astounded my pushchair didn't sell, (I struggles to get one at the price I listed it for weeks over the summer!!!)
wondering whether to relist.
Do I get my listing fees back since it didn't sell Do I get them back if I relist and it sells or doesn't sell
I think e-bay is telling me I will get them back if I relist and it sells does that sound right?
I don't think it will sell then if it didn't now so I might just take the money and run!!

Hi

you can relist for free if your item doesn't sell but you still need to pay the original listing fee either way. It may sell second time around - I had to try twice with my pushchair. I think you can leave it a week or so before relisting - may get others looking. Are you offering postage I used parcelforce which is quite reasonable and I think you get more people looking. Good luck

umm so my belief that if it doesn't sell you don't pay is seriously wrong, I wonder where I got that from?!!

Just looked on ebay and saw this re relisting - you have to pay for 2 insertion fees if your item doesn't sell second time around- didn't know this! Why don't you wait again until it is a free listing day:

"So What's the Catch?
There are two, really. First, the relisting process is not actually "free" in the sense that you don't have to pay for it. Instead, it's a credit?if your listing doesn't sell the first time around and you relist it with a successful sale the second time (after having used the relist button), eBay will post a credit to your account for the value of the insertion fee. If the item doesn't sell the second time around, you're responsible for both insertion fees.
The second catch is that this credit only covers insertion fees, not things like seller features fees that may help to increase the likelihood of a sale." the link
