ebay free listing?

Hi,

Bit of an ebay newbie, but I thought it was now free to list stuff that has no reserve, is this right? Does the free listing mean that I can pur a reserve on for free?

Also, is the free listing this weekend? thanks z

    Most private sellers get 100 free 99p start auctions per month, not though if you're below standard.
    It may be a free listing this weekend, we usually hear Thursday although the last couple have been announced via email on the Wednesday.
    You would be charged for a reserve, quite an expensive way of listing. Lots of buyers won't bother with a reserve, you may be better to start for the least you'll accept. Or if it's an item that seems to go for a similar price all the time, maybe a BIN.
    There's an ebay board, any ebay questions will generally be answered much quicker over there.
