Thanks for the heads up. Worked for me.

Ebay still struggling to entice sellers back ?

Doesn't cover cars. Cheeky fu*kers! :rage:

Can get rid of my laptop now and not get shafted for £60+

Thanks working for me

Never worked for me ever, always opted in for the deal but always get charged more than a quid & follow the T's & C's to the letter :thinking:

Does this offer work on a listing with a quantity greater than 1? Or do the items have be listed separately?

Just in time for my 7 day restriction to be lifted.

God, I hate eBay so much.

Thanks

great deal, would it be enough to end an item and then relist it or you need to create a new advert, thanks

Perfect, no email as usual ... but the link worked.

Thanks OP!

Nice one op :-)

Time to clear the wardrobes :thumbsup:

Finally one I'm eligible for!! Thanks OP!!

Thanks got the offer again. Have a few items items that didnt sell from last time with 4 days left so will end these and then re-list them under this offer.

Brilliant, thanks OP.

Been waiting for this. Thanks OP

Worked on both my accounts, thanks.

Thanks, been waiting for one of these. We have quite a lot to get rid of and I refuse to sell on eBay unless we have this deal.

Great offer, thanks for posting OP

Nice timing with 4 days remaining on a few listings from last time.

I don't know how anyone can ever go wrong on this,once opted in at the bottom of your selling page it shows the 100 listings in the offer,as soon as you list one item you go back to the bottom of the page and check it's gone down to 99 so you know it's working correctly.

You must be doing something wrong somewhere for it never to work for you.

I went wrong by selling multiples... make sure you read the fine print kids!

He thing I dislike about this offer is it doesn't work on multiples, and even if you list everything individually they delete the listings. It really sucks if you have a few of the same thing to sell

Nice... Got a couple of games that I've been meaning to sell. (GTA V is somehow worth more than I paid for it new...)

This works, tried and tested last time around.

You don't receive an email most of the time it's in Ebay messages.

Thanks chanchi, your the best! This is first time I've ever had this ebay offer in years .

If you have a bid Ebay can charge you,if it's the first one within a year it can be waived but if not they can charge you if it has a bid on it.

We may charge a fee if you end a listing early.

.This fee is equal to the final value fee you would have paid if the listing had ended on its own and sold for the highest bid received at the time you ended the listing.

• We charge this fee if you cancel bids and end an auction-style listing early without a buyer.
  
  
• We don't charge this fee if you end an auction-style listing early and sell to the high bidder. (In this case, normal final value fees apply.)
  
  
• This fee doesn't apply to listings in the Real Estate and eBay Motors vehicle categories, and the Classified Ads selling format.
  
  

Because we understand that sometimes it may be necessary to end a listing early, we don't charge a fee for the first auction-style listing you end early (where a fee applies) per calendar year (January 1 to December 31).

Nice one, got some crap to sell and been waiting for this offer to pop up again

Not if you have auctions with bids on,you can't cancel more than one per calendar year as they will charge you.

well its about time... charlie.

Kids don’t work;(

Thanks OP surprised I'm eligible as I've never had an offer like this , but then again I rarely use eBay, time to sell some old stuff I have collecting dust

This used to work a treat but i think eBay have measures in place now, especially on listings where you change the category.

For example, I have listed a phone before, changed to laptop during the 30 days and the listing is completely frozen out. Gets zero exposure and views; simply remains in old category with different title.

Cheers.

Need to sell iPhone 7 so this is going to save a lot of money. Thank you chanchi!

to get this promo final fee, your list have to be sold within 30 days

Excellent! Made the decision never to sell on eBay again unless one of these offers pop up. £9.12 fee's on a £85 sale was a mistake on my part and the last straw! Pity we can't all do that and force eBay to become a little less greedy!

They are buy it now or best offer collector edition games. They end on Monday anyways so will swap them on Sunday, but thanks for the advice.

Indeed good idea to swap on Monday, all forms of listing push upwards as they draw closer to their end date.

Yes, but be careful of the T&Cs:

"FeesEnding an auction-style listing early once it has received a bid can lead to disappointed and frustrated buyers who may be less likely to bid on listings the next time around. For this reason, we may charge a fee if you end a listing early.‌ This fee is equal to the final value fee you would have paid if the listing had ended on its own and sold for the highest bid received at the time you ended the listing.

• We charge this fee if you cancel bids and end an auction-style listing early without a buyer.
  
  
• We don't charge this fee if you end an auction-style listing early and sell to the high bidder. (In this case, normal final value fees apply.)
  
  
• This fee doesn't apply to listings in the Real Estate and eBay Motors vehicle categories, and the Classified Ads selling format.
  
  

Because we understand that sometimes it may be necessary to end a listing early, we don't charge a fee for the first auction-style listing you end early (where a fee applies) per calendar year (January 1 to December 31)."

I Think I love you. I’ll save a fortune! Ebays taking 10% and paypal is about 3%.

I tend to relist the same item 10 times for 30 days, and then you can just edit the listing when you want to sell something. Means the offer of £1 max fees lasts you 30 days

Woo hoo....I'm in. Cheers Ser Chanch

I Dont ebay that much at all, if i list a number of items, do they need to sell before the end date of this, or just listed within this date and as long as they sell before 30 days its only £1 final fee for each item? Sorry for the dumb question but just to clarify.

For me it says 'this promotional offer is not available to you' I'm not a business Elmer anyone else having this same issue?

i dont think you can change from BIN to auction if you do thagt right?

This should be working for everyone as it is a national deal that I have just head advertised on the radio.

Just sold something the other day

Do you still get stung by the paypal fees?

Time to relist all my current listings heh

No you can't

Ditto but £6000

I win the biggest willy contest!!

Of course. They have to rip you off somehow or it wouldn't be ebay would it? I think it's 20p +3.6% of the bid price.

When i went to the home page there's a big green banner advertising it.

does duration have to be 30 days, or can i choose Good 'Til Cancelled and still only pay £1 aftee 30 days? cheers

How strict are they on multiples? I have several similar, used laptops. They will have different scuffs and scratches etc. Or they might have different amounts or brands of RAM :smile: The items are different but I'd rather sell one than lose the offer. Can anyone advice on ebay's interpretation of the rules?

this is the first time I've been accepted :grin:

seperate listings is fine.

I've been waiting for this, thanks OP!

Hot hot hot. Thanks OP - just liosted a few bits that I've been waiting to sell for a while

Does anyone know if I end my current expensive items and then re-list straight away will this offer apply to me... I did also receive the email through Ebay.

Should do. I've done it before.

I think this is my fourth (or fifth) time in about six weeks. It seems very random as to who they accept and how many times.

Sweet, good looking out.

Now you can get shafted for the whole amount.
re there still honest ebayers out there?(buyers and sellers)

Not sure about relisting an item I have as it says "Auction-style listings ended early" are in the restrictions and exclusions?

Just change the title very slightly.

Yes, that's what I always do

time to cancel my 7 day auction that had only 2 days left to relist... :disappointed:

Hi, looking for some help!
1. If I put something on ebay now and it doesn't sell and I relist it after August 21st, do you still just pay the £1?
2. Can i now relist something that didn't sell (original add was before 18th)? or should I create a new add for it to get the offer.

I sold a camera of mine 2 weeks ago for £835!!! Absolutely gutted, I've lost £82 :rage:‌ :cry:

I hope someone could clarify for me please because I have never took part in this offer before. - Do you have to list the item and the auction end within the four days or I can just list up to 100 items within the four day period before the offer ends and say list it for 7 days, and the final value fee, would that still be£1?

The fee is a pound as long as you start it within the promotional period it doesn't matter if the auction is for 10 days for example.

These promotions are regular you should have waited,on the 6th of this month there was one for 50% off final value fees.

Why don't people just click on "sell similar" and not actually click to relist the item then there won't be any doubt over the fees.

You can't list something after the 21st and still get the pound fees.

Works for me - Thanks op

Oooh. This came at the right time, I'm about to sell my limited edition 20th anniversary PS4.

worked for me :grin: thanks

I have a lot of identical items that I want to sell. This is a bummer...

yes get in!! been waiting for this, i have a macbook air and a sony xperia xz premium to get rid of!

If you juggle the title wording and change the price slightly you can sneak them in. I've currently got 5 of the same item all listed.

if i list as "good till cancelled" will it still qualify for the promotional rate no matter how long it takes to sell?

HEAT!

This campaign is good for both sides. In recent years I have stopped selling on ebay when it is the usual 10%+ fees outside of these deals. Until 3-4 years ago, there weren't any practical alternatives to ebay, today there still isn't necessarily a direct, equivalent alternative but between Facebook, gumtree, and the like there are enough to make it worthwhile elsewhere. Unfortunately, ebay has also in recent years shifted to condoning dodgy and even outright fraudulent customer practices by always siding on the customers side so much so that I usually only sell high value items as cash on collection now.

How can you check if this has worked in the past I'm sure I've still been charged after a promotion

If you go to the bottom of your 'all selling' page and look at active promotional offers, then click on the number shown, it will list all the item numbers that are listed under the £1 FVF offer.

I wouldn't choose that option. It definitely won't have the £1 fee if it sells after the 30 days and I'm not sure you'll get the low fee within the 30. But if chosen as 30 days from the outset, it will have the low fee. If it doesn't sell the first time around, there will probably be a similar offer in a months time.

Why do people struggle to understand the very basics of this offer?

If you are selling anything with a BIN or starting bid of over £10 then you save money.

The T&Cs aren't in small print so I'm unsure why the same questions keep getting asked?

Ebay have a monopoly in their market. Like Amazon they pay very little tax in this country. Unlike Amazon they have utterly useless customer service and if you are a seller make sure you are very prepared to deal with fraudsters.

Their whole business model and changes over the years are basically a fraudsters paradise. Especially since the one sided feedback was brought in.

Cover your back, make sure no one is following and cover it again.

Treat whatever you sell as a gamble and stress, even if you pay a fortune and get it insured when you post.

Royal Mail and Parcelforce are in the dark ages when it comes to CS and getting any kind of claim even looked into.

Don't believe me? Check these reviews out from the main branch that delivers back to Amazon if you find yourself in that position....

Amazon returns via Parcelforce Edinburgh

I really struggle to find that many things to sell for up to £1.

I've sold a few books for about 90p each but it seems a lot of hassle for so little profit.

I wonder when ebay will realise their standard listing fees are too high. I have used a few of these offers and sold around 6k worth of items. That's reduced the seller fees from £600 to £50

Some interesting points. Sold lots of stuff on eBay for various prices and sent to various places. From experience I'd say 98% of my buyers have been absolutely fine. It's the 2% you need to be prepared for.
Recently had someone wait till the last day of an unpaid item assistance case and then try and fob me off with an eCheque. When I cancelled the sale they threatened me with bad feedback. Haven't heard from them since.
Anything I sell over £25 I only send as tracked. I only send as tracked to South America and most of Asia and to Russia.
In the last 6 months I've only had one (maybe two) items go 'missing', and I've sent out hundreds of things.
Filling out the Royal Mail compensation form is a pain, but they always refund.
In short, as you say watch your back and be prepared for the 2%.

That's why I said for 30 days

Yes that's why I said 30days

You're misunderstanding on purpose I assume

"Unfortunately, this promotional offer is not available to you." Anyone know why? Perhaps because i've recently sold on eBay?

Just checked my ebay inbox and saw that ebay sent this to me on the 17th but didn't email it to me smfh... Ebay sends me all sorts of stupid trash I don't care for to my email and spams me with feedback surveys if I speak to CS but the one time they should email me they don't?? :angry:

So I've accepted the offer. Do I need to relist all my currently listed items? Or are they automatically part of the deal?

Does the item need to sell in the 4 days or just be listed?

Does the item have to sell by the 21st for the fee to be £1?

sold something and forgot to accept it nooooooo

Thank you, love a good sell

Will I still get stung for 10% by the Paypal fees when the buyer pays?

Why did you get one of them ?

eBay believed I had sold a wheelchair outside of eBay.

Timeline went something like this:

1. Buyer wanted to view the chair to see if suitable for his wife, so I sent my address.
2. Buyer viewed, but decided it wasn't suitable.
3. Wheelchair was also on Gumtree (which eBay owns), and the next day someone responded to ad, came round and bought the chair.
4. I ended the eBay listing.
5. I get an email informing me I have a week's ban for selling outside of eBay.
6. I ring eBay to explain, provide links to existing Gumtree advert etc/correspondence. It was not a productive call.
7. Decided it was easier to suck it up, and wait out the week. No bids, buying, messaging etc.

I really hate eBay, and wish there was a viable alternative.

...and no. Lokal is not that alternative.

Just a follow up here in case this helps anyone. The link wasn't valid for me but I had received this offer in my ebay inbox and was able to activate it! Woo. This will give me the motivation to finally list some stuff that i've been meaning to list for a while but just haven't got round to (and probably wouldn't without this offer). If you're listing stuff that's worth a few hundred pounds this could be a great offer - as long as it sells within 30 days.

From a buyers perspective - there might be some great deals around 25-30 days after this promotion where sellers would be willing to let stuff go for cheaper than they would usual because they'll still be better off with £1 fees rather than 10% of the final value.

Same! Luckily just found this in my inbox!

Does the fee only apply if I list the item within the date range or do I have to sell the item within the date range ?

Ebay need more business now that facebook has selling sites, they continued to rob people over the years and now are suffering.....greed, no one likes greed

Says it has to sell within 30 days, that's longer than the promotion date so I'm going to go with it has to be listed by the 21st of August (tomorrow) and sell within the next 30 days. If relisted etc normal fees apply

Do fixed price listings count?

Yes finally worked on a non business account - sold something right away - £2.10 saved :sunglasses:

I am no fan of Ebay and their monopoly - yet thanks to the site I have made quite quite a return over the years. 10% commission fees are highly competitive these days.

Worked for me, Ipad sold in about 2 hours, £31.50 saved :):):)

Sadly. Very sadly. This is good advice. At the beginning, eBay was a seller's fraudsters paradise, now it is a buyer's fraudsters paradise. Be careful, sellers. Too many scumbags out there. A sad reflection of our broken society.

Is this still valid today?

Just checked - max length of 'Buy it Now' is 10 days ?

Can anyone advise ?

Thankyou

Yes or you can used "good till cancelled" and the offer will apply if it sells inside the first 30 days.

Wow, im really surprised they picked up on that and penalised you.

I do naughty things all the time. I shouldnt, but i do.

I some times do as well. I recently sent my email address to someone as an image which was also picked up and the actual text from it was extracted by them as well to suspend my account, so beware.

Haha very clever. Ive sent my mobile number over with text like : zerodouble7zero8.... etc quite a few times.

You know what will happen now dont you. I will have jinxed myself and i will get caught next time.

Hi just wanted some help. I sold my phone with this deal but the buyer no longer wants it. I've given a second offer chance to someone else and if they pay it, do I still only get charged £1max or does the normal rate apply? Please let me know

I put a £500 item for sale and just had a non payer. Can I report and relist with same offer I wonder...

That does not work

I did that and got charged the full amount

Ive never had a problem doing it
