Like last time, it seems to have unusual start/end times, so here are my recommendations:
1) Click on the link. This will tell you whether or not you're eligible for this offer. If you're not eligible, you'll be told that this is invitation only or that the offer has expired. Note that 2 weeks ago some people, after being declined, tried again later and were accepted. So it might be worth trying again on Sat or Sun. 2) If you are eligible, then before you list anything, please go to your eBay summary and click on 'All selling' to check that the offer is active for you. If it is active, you should see it under 'Promotional offers'. Please note that you will only see this once the offer is active. This might be at 16:00 on Saturday or (more likely) midnight on Saturday.
So, as things stand, eBay say that the offer is between the dates/times:
From : Saturday, 07/10/17 16:00:00 Ends : Monday, 09/10/17 23:59:59
But I suspect, following a similar error 2 weeks ago, the actual start time will be midnight on Saturday (i.e. Sunday).
What does this offer mean/do? If you're eligible, then anything you list between the start/end dates will be charged a maximum of a £1 Final Value Fee when it sells, rather than the usual 10%. So you'll save on fees for anything that sells for more than £10. For example, if you sell something for £100, you'll be charged £1 FVF rather than £10 FVF. You'll still be charged PayPal fees as normal.

Hi folks, if I listed items between these dates, but they don’t sell for a week, would I get charged a FVF or not?
It’s not clear on eBay if it means no FVF on items listed between those dates or just those that list and sell within those dates?

If you list it during these 2 days, you'll get the £1 FVF no matter when it sells :smile:

Usually I think your item has to sell within 30 days (or 1 month, I can't remember exactly) to qualify for the £1 FVF
