Another "no fees offer" gripe!

Options
Has anyone changed anything on their account to get the offers on fees again?
I have not had an offer since February (was getting them regular every 2 wks) and trying to work out what else I can do.

My account is in good standing and I have still been listing and had a few sales of late though I am only listing cheaper things because of the fees.

I have only about 8 listings currently and am considering closing them all to see if that gives ebay a push to offer.  Has anyone done anything similar that has worked?

    I had a while where I didn't get any offers on my account, fortunately my wife did so we uaed hers.
    She has not had any for a long time but I seem to be getting them every other week.
    Sorry, no ideas how to get them back
    May you find your sister soon Helli.
    Sleep well.

    I haven't had any offers since February as well. I contacted eBay and have been told that my acocunt is probably in a rotating batch and to sit tight that I will eventually rotate back into being sent offers again. Given it's been six months now while other accounts get it every 2 weeks, I doubt I'm on any rotating thing anymore. But then again, I do remember them saying that the offer is only supposed to be granted once per year so who knows, maybe I am on a very bad batch. I've kept some listings up meanwhile but had to hike up price to cover the normal fees so sales have slowed down tremendously.

    In one sense it is counter productive for eBay as yes they get more fees but if buyers have to increase prices than there are fewer sales.
    Since paying full fees I only list small cheaper stuff and I now feel like not bothering at all.

    Work this one out - I have two accounts and have offers on both - wait for it . . .
    One states 80% off from 26/1/22 to end date 31/12/25 and
     the other is 70% off from 1/12/21 to end date 31/12/23 

    Yes, these are the correct dates on my offers.
