  • I normally come here and find the link on a Friday, well before I get any e-mails they sometimes don't come till Saturday afternoon or Sunday. you know you can just copy the link from here and see if you've got it? on very rare occasions an account isn't eligible for it, but always got an offer the next fortnight so never a big deal.

    I sold for 6 months last year every time I got an FVF offer.
    While this was typically every fortnight there was the odd time that I wasn't offered anything.

    The timing of the e-mails seems a bit random too. 

    I had a message from a friend on Wednesday saying that he'd recioved an e-mail that there was an 80% weekend coming up that morining and he noted that the announcement was "a bit early", however I didn't get my e-mail for the same event until Friday afternoon.  :/

  • I have some items listed, but now only use eBay for lower value items regardless since eBay cannot be trusted and are happy to screw sellers over. 
    Even so, I will be ending all my listings this weekend before they auto renew. I'm not giving eBay any more money unless I really have to. Happy to wait until the next FVF offer day. Anything below 80% and I wont list. 

    EDIT : Just noticed in the other thread the 80% offer is back on for this weekend ;)
    How do you cancel the 'auto renew' feature, please? All my listings have been changed automatically (without me knowing) and I can't find how to change the settings...

    You can’t stop auto relists on a BIN listing, but if they are auctions there should be a tick box on the original listing page. 

    With either a BIN or an auction though you can end the listing manually at any time.

  • Hello everyone, I know this post is a bit old but I haven’t received any emails with the 80% offers for almost a year now (before it was every 2 weeks). I got in touch with Ebay’s customer service but so far nothing changed. I have quite a few items to sell and would rather pay less fees. Any suggestions on how to fix the problem? Thank you in advance

    I stopped getting them since February for some reason. I just gave up selling that much these days.

    I have been sent 80% off FVF offers pretty much every fortnight for the last few months at least.

    I tend to take them up and list a few things each time. Not sure if that has any bearing on the likelyhood of gettting any more in future?
