There's another £1 FVF eBay offer.

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.

Yes.

So you can still change the price on your listing after the promo? And if it sells within 30 days you'll only get charged £1 FVF?

knack

9 Oct 17 #245

Yeah you need to keep the format (buy it now/auction) the same but I think anything else can be changed - that's my experience anyway and never been a problem.

jiveturkey1234

9 Oct 17 #244

You legend, thank you! :relaxed: is there anything I have to keep accurate to the eventual listing - ie keep it as Buy It Now - or can you change literally everything once it’s up?

knack

9 Oct 17 #243

Yep, go with the time in your promo offers box.

Illusionary

9 Oct 17 #242

This is incorrect, The promotion ends at midnight UK time tonight.

That's the conclusion that's already been explained a few times earlier in the thread, a couple of days ago :stuck_out_tongue:

The promotion ends at midnight tonight, not 4pm - you've still got another hour and a half.

It wouldn't work now. You'd be charged full price when your item sells.

soton26

9 Oct 17 #238

Thinking about it, that might be an american clock or something as the 13:33 activation time would be 8 hours behind the actual time where I clicked it. and 15:59 would therefore be our midnight.

soton26

9 Oct 17 #237

I just clicked and got this

Bit of a silly question but assume as the end time was 4pm today it's not worth me listing anything... Weird as it still appears under my seller offers too (0 out of 100 used)

knack

9 Oct 17 #236

Placeholder listings. I use DVDs and books and put them on at a price no one would pay then edit the listing when I have something to sell.

jiveturkey1234

9 Oct 17 #235

Just realised this is 'single listings only'. I have some Buy It Nows with multiple quantities - anyone have any tips for how I can effectively use this offer?

So far I have just relisted them as a single quantity i.e. with 'available: 1' - hopefully I sell something today so I can relist it before tonight to try and get the offer twice..!

9 Oct 17 #234

Thanks Illusionary, that's not the view I was seeing, turns out I had to turn on Advanced Selling Tool in the top right corner.
With the Quick Selling Tool it sets it to Good Til Cancelled Automatically! (You can't revise this afterwards either).

Illusionary

9 Oct 17 #232

Where is the bit that allows you to select the timing for a Buy it Now? When I go to sell something I can choose a price and either Auction or Buy it now + offers, but I don't see anywhere to set a time frame for the listing, unlike with Auction I get a drop-down for 1 to 10 days.
Anyone know?

9 Oct 17 #229

One thing that I'm sure a lot of you know but some may not is never under any circumstances use the "good til cancelled" duration for fix priced items, always use 30 days or less.

This is because good til cancelled is only a 30 day listing that will automatically re-list your item after 30 days if it doesn't sell. If it does that you'll be charged 35p insertion fees even though they may have been free before.

Illusionary

8 Oct 17 #219

What time did you list the item? If before midnight, you were too early.

If it's not working now, unfortunately it's not going to this time around. You could wait for next month and hope that it works then - but of course, that won't be gauranteed either.

Just a warning with these, it allowed me to accept this offer but never applied it to my account. I sold something last night and checked today and had been charged full amount of fees, not £1. I've called Ebay today and they have honoured the promotion but I will definitely check my account from now on before listing.

eayragt

8 Oct 17 #216

Wow, thanks for the Heads Up. Accepted this offer a few days ago, and listed yesterday evening. Received email offer today and just deleted while noticing the discrepancy in dates. Thought I'd check this thread, and it's time to cancel and relist!!

That's what you'll see if you're not eligible, I'm afraid. I've been eligible for most of these recently, but wasn't for the promotion in September. This one's now working again for me, so hopefully it'll just be a one-off that it isn't for you.

CoCo_

8 Oct 17 #213

Usually this deal always works for me but not this time...

Keep getting, "This deal has expired" :face_with_monocle: Anyone else in the same boat?
I'd feel better if it said I was not eligible but expired seems to me that I am eligible but can't get through to the right page.

p.s It is not in my selling promotions (but it hardly is!)

billy.bronco

7 Oct 17 #202

same here...best to wait to see if its in your "promotional offers" otherwise you will be hit by a Final value fee of 10%. wouldnt be surprised if its a marketing scam to make people think they can sell for £1 max final fee by a saying you have accepted the offer sell £1 max...peeps will think they can sell and list their items, but when they sell them, ebay will hit them with a 10% final value fee...as it wasnt in their promotional offers...

So what will happen, will these just show up on the active promo pages on our accounts?

knack

7 Oct 17 #194

Odd, it usually says expired or by invitation only if you’re not accepted. I rarely accept via the email because I’ve already opted in via a link here by the time it arrives so they’re wrong about that. Although it could be that only those who receive the email are eligible. Wouldn’t give up hope yet.

Illusionary

7 Oct 17 #193

They say that every time. Just wait until midnight.

theexile2k3

7 Oct 17 #192

Speaking to Ebay currently, you can follow the link here and read the T&Cs, apparently you can click the deal and even though it says you're eligible it won't be activated UNLESS you had one of the original emails, you have to respond directly in that email for it to become active.
Looks like we aren't getting this one

azzintheclass

7 Oct 17 #191

It is not showing as active for me either, let's all hope that it comes through at midnight

gkinrade

7 Oct 17 #190

I was accepted too but it's not showing in my Promotional Offers either right now - looks like I'll try again tomorrow. Been waiting for a while for this to come round again - I've got about 15 items to sell which should net me in the region of £2k if all goes to plan and really don't want to lose £200 of that in fees - much rather hand over £15 :smile:

Check your account. You've got to meet the minimum performance standards for selling on eBay

RedTurkey

7 Oct 17 #172

Have you tried all the links (the main link in the original post plus the 2 additional links in the original post)? If you have buit keep getting declined, I'd suggest trying again tomorrow. There are quite a few comments here that the link(s) didn't work the first few times, but they did later.

Illusionary

7 Oct 17 #171

The terms include:

The promotion is valid for the first 100 listings only which go live during the promotion period (or were previously scheduled to go live during the promotion period) on eBay.co.uk using the auction-style, auction-style with Buy it now option, or fixed price formats, in an eligible category. Listings using the auction-style with Buy it now option will be charged only the listing upgrade fee.

...which would suggest that the answer is yes. I'd not take the risk, though, personally - will you really have no time at all within the two-day window? Also bear in mind that from previous offers, the "4pm" may not be UK time so I wouldn't rely on that until seeing the promotion active in My eBay.

RedTurkey

7 Oct 17 #170

Hi Darren

Under normal circumstances, yes. However, I wouldn't risk it this weekend. 2 weekends ago, eBay stated that the offer would start at 16:00 on Saturday, but it actually started at midnight on Saturday. So, if you listed something to start at 16:00 today, but the offer actually starts at midnight again, then you'd be liable for 10% FVF rather than £1 FVF. Make sense?

hjm

7 Oct 17 #169

This link worked for me, but I had no email from Ebay (like I normally do) and it's not in my Promotional offers. My mate sold a while ago with this offer, as it showed "Accepted" via the link, but had to pay the normal 10% selling fee as she wasn't invited personally and had no email though ebay. So I'm not risking it until I have an email from Ebay. Just saying. :-)

I_Am_Timms

7 Oct 17 #168

Am I doing something wrong? I sell various things all the time, but I have never been eligible for one of these £1 listing offers. Every time I click a link for one of the deals that get posted on here, it'll say invitation only etc. :disappointed:

darrenshelly1

7 Oct 17 #167

is it possible to list now and schedule for when the deal starts at 4pm to day?

Illusionary

7 Oct 17 #166

I'm expecting midnight tonight - but as you'll probably know, check the offers showing in your account before posting any listings that you intend to benefit from the offer.

Illusionary

7 Oct 17 #165

If the timing is like last time, with the 4pm reported time being with reference to PST, you're a day early - it should be going live at midnight at the end of the day today.

Master_Yoda

7 Oct 17 #164

The link said I was eligible and that I had accepted the offer however it's still not showing in my account at all... Should have gone live at midnight but definitely hasn't.

Also - once again I didn't get any email about this promotion from ebay.

Domthedonkey

7 Oct 17 #163

I don't know if it's 4pm or midnight like last time but mine still isn't live.

willyzippy89

6 Oct 17 #162

Cheers, wanted to know the paypal fee

tollyman

6 Oct 17 #161

bear in mind it's usually only for single quantity items. list quantity of say 5 and you will be charged 10%
It must also sell within 30 days.

All in all very good deal and I saved £250 in fees the last time I used it.

oh and for the person who askd if relist would work then I don't know about that but 'sell similar' on your own cancelled item does work. I did it with my £700 laptop and paid £1 fee after cancelling the live auction then viewing it and clicking on sell similar. it also put back all photos and wording.

Received link 2 from ebay in my messages section. Still have auctions running from the last offer and have around 18 days left on them, but clicked anyway :grin:

eBay seem to be offering these £1 promos all the time now, really no point in listing items outside this promo as they're greedy otherwise as they'll take 10% of expensive sales items from you without them doing any extra work...and that doesn't take into account the further 3% Paypal aka eBay, take off you. They should just overhaul their fee structure for non-business sellers but i doubt their greed will let them.

Not sure if this will help any one. One of may accounts started this promo (and was emailed) on the 6th :-

Sell for £1 max!£1 max final value fee on up to 100 listings and no insertion fee.opens in a new window or tab

Start:6 Oct 2017 at 12.00am BST

End:9 Oct 2017 at 11.59pm BST

The other seem eligible but hasn't been emailed yet and might not start until the 7th Midnight as the times shown above are ebays PST time (as last time - stated 4pm and was actually midnight BST).

Check your accounts after midnight 00.01 on the 7th to double check.

upset.brown.pant

6 Oct 17 #133

i kept getting errors on this last time (a couple of weeks ago) and couldn't accept the offer until very late before the deal started, so hang in everyone.

my guess is that they limit this to, say, 100k offer acceptances, releasing the offer in tranches from people who never/hardly sell anything, then later to the next lot who are more active, and so on until the limit is reached. so the more you sell generally to later you'll be invited to join.

no doubt there are other criteria as well, but since these started getting more regular and i've been selling more they've definitely been getting invited later and later.

it's almost at the point where i have a load of draft items ready to go in anticipation.

6 Oct 17 #129

I followed the link yesterday and it said it had expired. I checked my ebay messages and there was nothing. I tried the link again today and again it said it was expired, but then checked my ebay messages and the offer was there. I'm not sure if following the link acts as a trigger or if it's coincidence. I received the last £1 offer from a couple of weeks ago so it doesn't seem uncommon or random.

ETA: I'm not a regular seller by any means, in fact I rarely sell on ebay. I shop there often, so not sure if that makes any difference.

6 Oct 17 #128

I have never been eligible for one of these. Do people who have been offered this regularly trade on eBay? just trying to see if there is a trick to getting an invite.

There seem to be at least two different offers around at the same time, broadly the same but different dates and not all work on all accounts - one came out with a 7/10 16.00 start, one I received overnight had a 6/10 start.

pinkchick1987

This is the offer I've received. Starts 6th Oct? I know last time they sent the wrong date out. Does this mean this is incorrect and I should only start listing from 7th?

Well, where else are you going to sell? Gumtree sucks, car boot = everything at 50p, amazon inflexible for the average person.....Facebook, full of empty promises to buy.

6 Oct 17 #111

does this mean your item you list on 6th oct must end on 9th oct to qualify? or you can do a 30 day listing etc..?

Please make sure it is live in your account,it said I had accepted the offer via the deal link but it isn't live in my Ebay.

Woking from the 6th for me, why the 7th for everyone else?

What is your ebay "seller rating"? Not feedback - eBay's rating of you.

6 Oct 17 #101

Got mine today with the new dates. Post from today to Monday. It was in my inbox.

No need to come back Sunday! I got it last night after clicking unsuccessfully on the offer about 10 times - it just popped up.

My dates fwiw

06/10/17 00:01:18 BST- 09/10/17 23:59:59 BST

Sure thing.

Pity you have to use the word 'mitigate' though and can't use the word 'avoid'.

Good luck.

I stopped selling on ebay. Full of scams, if something goes wrong ebay votes against you. Doesnt protect sellers anymore

Cakeboy79

6 Oct 17 #97

I’ve been selling on eBay for 15 years. I’m fully aware of the risks and how to mitigate against them.

Thanks for the concern though. :grin:

6 Oct 17 #96

Sorry to hear that. Have you tried the new link?
pages.ebay.co.uk/pro…tml

Bear in mind if you have a business account, unfortunately, these private sellers promotions will not work.

goemon

6 Oct 17 #95

none of these ebay special offers ever work for me it really makes me not want to sell on there ever anymore. even though i used it for over 10 years have 100% positive and hundreds of feedbacks still no promotions for me

bestpricebob

6 Oct 17 #94

Brilliant this one worked for me, thanks

ess

6 Oct 17 #93

It didn't work for me same Expired Error as before, however, I just received a promotional email from eBay with new working link.

Link: pages.ebay.co.uk/pro…tml
Offer: £1 FVF
Date: 05 Oct 17 to 09 Oct 17

Hope it's useful

These ones with the weird times work closer to the event. If it doesn't work now, try again on the day.

Anx10us

6 Oct 17 #88

They said the deal starts at 4pm, but it was 4pm PST or similar, so midnight UK. Lots of people here got rather flustered.

knack

6 Oct 17 #87

What happened last time

luvsadealdealdeal

6 Oct 17 #86

You've accepted the offer "Sell for £1 max!"

just got it as well! :smile:

SClub

5 Oct 17 #85

My offer just came through from tomorrow until end of Monday :smile:

Anx10us

5 Oct 17 #84

Worked for me again. Thanks, OP.

Here we go with all the 4pm shenaginagns. Did eBay not learn the last time they did this!?

luvsadealdealdeal

5 Oct 17 #83

luvsadealdealdeal

Why I'm always ineligible for this?

deeky

5 Oct 17 #74

You're gonna sell iPhones on ebay? :disappointed:

samelliscfh

5 Oct 17 #73

Odd, it says I've already accepted the offer

deeky

5 Oct 17 #72

I do that every time. It's not a problem.

Cakeboy79

5 Oct 17 #71

Worked for me which is great as I’ve got two iPhones to sell after the wife and I just upgraded.

Satele

5 Oct 17 #70

Worked for me. Thanks!

luvsadealdealdeal

5 Oct 17 #69

you be doing it wrongly

amzzzzyyyy

5 Oct 17 #68

I always do this offer but when i be charged it still the same as full price charges

knack

5 Oct 17 #67

I think that should be ok. I seem to remember it being in the Ts and Cs previously anyway.

MR1123

5 Oct 17 #66

Has any taken a similar offer and received another? As I'm thinking to sell some stuff now and some later, too much to do it in one go.

RedTurkey

5 Oct 17 #65

Hi Jive, this is Red :grin:

Yes, that would work. You can check by relisting one item and then viewing your promotions to see if it’s gone from 100 down to 99 remaining.

jiveturkey1234

5 Oct 17 #64

HOT!!

Question: Will this work if I end old listings and just click 'relist' on Sunday, or do I have to set them up as new listings?

Cheguava

5 Oct 17 #63

Great, thanks OP, got a load of items to list, so should save a few quid.

RedTurkey

5 Oct 17 #62

It won't show on your account until the offer becomes active

AnnaMak

5 Oct 17 #61

says expired like one 2 weeks ago but then got an invite.
here is hoping in works over the weekend.

5 Oct 17 #60

Sweet. Cheers OP

Gotta make a collection of all the crap I need to get rid of now :grin:

kolibri

5 Oct 17 #59

Thanks. Says eligible when I go through the link, but is not showing on my account. Anyone knows why? Tia!

Syndron

5 Oct 17 #58

I've just accepted this offer... if I create a listing now but schedule the start time for some time during the eligibility period - will the offer still be applied?

TIA.

7 to 9th why is it still letting people get it.

secretjedi

Why are people listing now instead of the date advised? You'll get normal fees, no??

mehmeh

alexc100

5 Oct 17 #47

Thanks OP. Now I just need to find something to sell!!!

notos

5 Oct 17 #46

Should be available with every selling option

RedTurkey

5 Oct 17 #45

You can cancel Buy it Now items that don't have any pending offers and you can cancel auction items that do not have any bids. Cancelling any auction items that already have bids will incur a charge, so be careful.

luvsadealdealdeal

5 Oct 17 #44

there's no rule/ T&C that forbids this

you might cancel existing listings for various reasons, eg re-setting the 30 day expiry date because you are going on holiday in a month etc

gazcarts

5 Oct 17 #43

I have a few items listed at the moment. Would I be able to cancel them and relist them during the offer or would ebay see that as a breach of the terms?

misteraadam

5 Oct 17 #42

Thanks OP, got quite a few things to sell! Coming up as 'expired' but am hoping it'll work when live.

luvsadealdealdeal

5 Oct 17 #41

come back Sunday morning

clonereeco

5 Oct 17 #39

Excellent, thanks for posting!

willyzippy89

5 Oct 17 #38

Sigh, not the unusual times again *face palm* had to call up customer services last time as they changed the times after i listed items to sell.
Just as a caution people SCREEN SHOT THE ACCEPTED OFFER !!!!! :face_with_monocle:

Muig1972

5 Oct 17 #7

I'm eligible- but the end time for me is 15:59:59 on Monday 9th Oct.

msiddiq1989 to Muig1972

5 Oct 17 #37

Mine says the same and start time is 16:00:00 on 7th

wallhead3004

5 Oct 17 #5

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?

Bobbite to wallhead3004

5 Oct 17 #13

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

notos to Bobbite

5 Oct 17 #33

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

sbutang to notos

5 Oct 17 #35

This is eligible for 1 day auction too right? :thinking:

Bobbite to notos

5 Oct 17 #36

It's 30 days max anyway for the buy it now option. So wouldn't work on a relist yeah

cruncher75 to wallhead3004

5 Oct 17 #15

No i all ways list mine for buy now price for 30 days

peonyfour

5 Oct 17 #34

Thanks OP!

Not received this again. I'm starting to get offended!

kogucik

Only for selected sellers, not worth it

collectorcol to kogucik

Well worth it if you're selected though :wink:

Expired for me but was saying that other week but went live sunday morning and worked fine.

luvsadealdealdeal to gemvis

5 Oct 17 #28

exactly the same thing happened to me

it said 'expired' about 20 times (I very sadly clicked on it repeatedly from time to time!) then went live on Sunday morning :smile:

nextofkim

5 Oct 17 #22

Hi all, please can anyone tell me whether this is for private sellers only or whether it extends also to business sellers?

Cheers

RedTurkey to nextofkim

5 Oct 17 #25

Private sellers only I believe

Dawsy to nextofkim

5 Oct 17 #27

Business sellers get nothing.. eBay clearly don't want to encourage regular business sellers..

jfkm

5 Oct 17 #24

Keep checking.it didn't show on my account earlier. But its there now :smile:
