FREE LISTING DAY 12 & 13th Feb

Turo Lister is showing that I am being charged, is this a mistake? I am confused about the DSR's? I sold something about 6 weeks ago, but before that it has been a, maybe 18 months. I did get the email.

I am trying to declutter and I've done about 25 listings. it's a start!!

I think ebay charge for using turbo lister on a free listing day simply to stop sellers listing too many items... Spoil sports!:D

Dont use turbo lister on free listing days - they dont qualify and you'll be charged full price!

I've uploaded one item and it's not been charged using TL. I don't think i could cope without that to be honest. I decided I was listing anyway but I just went to my account and the item is there alone with a -- in the debit and -- in the credit. Ebay certainly do not charge for using it, they charge for scheduling - so I can list now for something to start at 10pm, and I have to pay for that.

This used to happen years ago, that TL said it would charge but it never did when the items were applied.

On with the great declutter then!!

Did this item have a starting price of 99p by any chance?

From the ebay website....
We’re pleased to announce that on the 12th and 13th February, private sellers who list item(s) at any starting price in an eligible category using the auction format on eBay.ie, will not pay an insertion fee*.
Items listed using professional tools, such as (but not limited to), Turbo Lister and Sales Manager Pro, are excluded. Items will only be eligible for this promotion if they are listed with Quick sell or Advanced sell (Sell Your Item) forms.

Well, I don't know. I've listed about 30 things using TL, most started at 99p, but others more expensive and it seems to be random on what I have been charged on. A 99p swimming vest I got charged for, a £10 train set I got charged for, other stuff I didn't.

Is stuff listed for 99p still free? As they were coming up at 10p so I assumed the 99p thing was no longer running.

As random as ever with eBay I guess!! Feels good to get some stuff listed, I could not even begin to tell you how much stuff I have to list. I could not even get into the cupbaord that goes under the stairs - and it is HUGE. We emptied it today and it pretty much filled out 12 x 12 playroom. LOL. Still working my way through it and trying to get stuff on as I go.

Blue monkey, someone above gave a really handy tip for listing stuff in anticipation of a free listing weekend. I will try this in the future I think. I have space in my built in wardrobe to store clothes and things so I hope to keep it up!

Yes for items listed as auctions.

ebay is definately random - for one of my listings its only letting me have one photo free, whereas the others had up to 12 pictures, all free! Think it depends on the category, but its confusing

I've listed six things today, less than I wanted to do but I've had a busy day and ran out of time. Fingers crossed for some bids!

I am trying to get on top of it but it seems never ending when you have kids!
