Free listing days on Ebay

Are these a common occurence on Ebay, or few and far between?
Only when the last tree has died
and the last river has been poisoned
and the last fish has been caught
will we realise we cannot eat money

    Hasn't been one for ages. 5p is about the cheapest they offer lately.
    My TV is broken! :cry:
    Edit: refunded £515 for TV 1.5 years out of warranty - thank you Sale of Goods Act! :j

    there hasnt been a free once since ive been selling on eBay and thats nearly 2 years - i dont know how frequent they were before usually they are 5 or 10p
    :rolleyes: Democracy is a process by which the people are free to choose the man who will get the blame.:j
  • I started just over 2 years ago and they had free listing days back then, early in the year of 2004 I think. Never seen one since then!

    Yeps. Free listing days....can't remember any!.

    Why are they now doing two things...

    1/ Items with free Postage

    2/ Buy it now items with only 5p insertion fee?.

    The link to find items with free postage seems to be gone from their homepage but i did have a peek today and found a nail fil 99p with free postage. Just no idea how to find them anymore. Sorry to go off topic :rolleyes:
