Free listing query

Last month I had an email saying all listings were free from March.

I’ve just resisted an unsold item and it says 35p listing fee.

Will I have to list all my unsold items again?

    Check all the terms and conditions , there are some new additions, including the shorter BINs not being allowed this month.

    If you have complied with all the terms and conditions then phone ebay in case there is a glitch.

    One thing though that has caught some private sellers with huge amounts of listings, you are keeping within the new limits as the ebay message was very misleading and in fact the free listings have decreased and are now limited to 1000 per month.

    Here's the thread about it:

    as usual though check your own offers to make sure you are compliant in case there are variations in what's included.

    I’ve done a completely new listing for the item and it’s zero fees.

    Strange why they would do that?

    On the US centred boards there has been a suggestion that ebay appear to be charging for relists for some strange reason and people are being told all sorts of different reasons why.

    I *think* you can get round the relisting charge by using 'List a similar item' and not changing any text, rather than the Relist this item option?
    The questions that get the best answers are the questions that give most detail....
