    Yep, 4th month here as well on my private account, as a business seller I think this virtually unlimited free listings for private sellers is getting a bit much.


    All these free listings are probably due to EAN's and large business sellers not relisting. There are fewer listings on the site.


    Also you may find some "private" sellers are forced to upgrade at a later date to business accounts. (there is always an ulterior motive/reason in the things ebay do)

    When I first saw this at the bottom of my page, I thought it was only for 2 days -

    I did the same so glad I came here to see how others were interpreting it!
  • My private account hasn't had any offers at all. 100% feedback, above standard...any ideas why I'm missing out ?
  • Anyone have any ideas ? is it worth ringing ebay ?

    They will just tell you it is random. Are you absolutletly sure there isn't any defects at all sneaked on - 'lates' or Cases not resolved? Have you checked your listing offers as it seems rare to get any emails now.

    Are you sure they are not in your Promotional Offers under All Selling. I never get any kind of messages to either of my personal accounts informing me of them but they are still there.

    Why do ebay keep sending me free listing offers when I have no time and nothing to sell?

    Yet when I do want to get rid of something, not a free listing in sight, sods law.

    They seem virtually permanent now - it isn't uncommon for my private accounts to show more than one offer running at the same time as well as my usual 20 that all private sellers get. Yesterday for instance both my private accounts I checked showed the 100 free per day in April, plus the standard 20, plus a further 100 one day only with 25% off. I don't get email notifications nay more though and make a habit of checking my promotions just in case.

    My business account has 50,000 free for a week that started this morning as well.
