Free listing days

Hi,
As a fairly new e-bayer, I was wondering how often they have cheap/free listing days. I have a number of items which I'm not sure will sell and thought that I've got nothing to lose if they go on on a free listing day.
Not that I'm tight or anything!
Thanks for any help.
Helen

    You've just missed the last 'offer' day which was 5p for all listings that were offered worldwide. I would suggest therefore that it will be at least a month if not more before we get another special offer day.

    Ebay haven't done a truly free listing day for a long while, they tend to go for offer days now like the 5p day last Thursday.

    Previously we have had free listing days where paypal is offered, cheap listing days for all items starting at less than £1 and free listing day on BIN only auctions. WE also sometimes get a 1p gallery day where gallery photos can be added for 1p instead of the usual 15p.
