Why not get it all ready to go on a site like Auctiva and then when it comes up you can schedule all your pre-prepared listings easily.

The last one was free p&p items, so only likely to be money-saving for fairly light things. Maybe they'll do a general cheap listing day next time. It's been yonks since they've had free listing days, but you never know, they might do one again some time.

I'd estimate another 2 weeks, they seem to be coming around every 2 weeks at the moment otherwise no-one sells on the core site and with no-one to buy anything, eBay make now money. Of course, they will not back down and admit they were wrong over taking the visibility of shop listings from view will they so expect a lot morecheap listing days to follow!!

don't forget to sign up for your newsletters and then you'll get notification of it coming around. it used to give you a days notice (if you were lucky) these days we get a whopping 4 or 5 days notice (so that people can get as much stuff listed as possible and make eBay some more money). Of course, they will not back down and admit they were wrong over the visibility of shop listings .......... will they??

Bung it all in Turbo Lister (if you can get it to work) or Auctiva and get them ready for listing and then get them all uploaded on the day of the auction!

Does anyone find the free listing days counter-productive? My items actually sell for less due to the huge amount of stuff put on. Great for buyers though.

Well for me I do. Usually I list my items in my shop because of the sheer volume of listings I can't afford to list them in the main pages, but no-one sees the shop listings. We have sold some this week but not as many as usual but when you can buy items on there for cost it hardly seems worth it these days. heaven knows who these people are but surely if you are getting out of bed to do a days work on the PC you want to get paid something. Working for free (maybe a loss if no-one buys that item at 60p a listing) really is not something I want to do!!
