    Does anyone know if there is one coming up this weekend?

    I doubt it, they will probably run a longer one over the Easter weekend.

    I usually get them every fortnight and had one last week.

    Oh I see.  A lot of people had one last week but not all.  

    There is a poster on here who normally advertises the offer so was hoping they would have done by now.

    Thanks a lot.

    Someone on this thread or perhaps a different thread speculated that the offers were mainly targeting those private sellers on managed payments to get those who were unhappy about the payment switch to carry on listing. My private accounts haven’t switched yet and I haven’t had an offer now for 3 weeks and nothing showing yet for this weekend , and if there was anything this weekend I would expect to see it by now.

    Is the new offer that Allison445 has mentioned not working for anyone else again?  It's saying it has expired.  Boohoo.  I've got all my drafts sorted ready to list.  I was really hoping for a £1FVF offer this weekend!

    I tried the link on my main private account and I get the expired message as well. I was hoping for a cheap listing weekend as I have a few bits to list , but never mind. I do wonder if there is something in the theory that only sellers on managed payments are  getting offers at the moment.

    Once again, only my account on managed payments has the offer. Not sure what ebay are trying to achieve by only promoting sellers on managed payments, I could understand it if changing was optional but it is totally under their control.

    I have the offer on my account and I'm not on managed payments (yet).

    Bang goes my theory, and I do love a good theory :)
