    Just some think to think about when you are ending your listings if you list for 10days that means your listings will be ending on the last day of the premier league and how things stand the title is up for grabs and any one from the bottom six can still go down so it’s a big day all games kick of at 3pm

    So I would list to end before 3pm or after 5pm


    that’s useful as I sell quite a lot of women’s clothing so while the hubby is watching the footy the ladies can look on e-bay at my clothing

    I sell ladies clothing also but I have never had any luck when big football games has been on :confused: take the ‘grand slam Sunday’ I didn’t sell a single thing when the football was on but when it finished I sold loads.

    That also gets me thinking I am sure that was the last cheap listing day or free pictures was when ‘grand slam Sunday’ was on :confused:

    Something worth thinking about

    Cheers nutty

    Except they' had a cheap listing day (50% off) on the first Thursday of May last year and in the two previous years on the week before!

    It would make them look week if the 5p listing day was boycotted, but in the words of Harry Hill "What are the chances of that happening?":confused:

    Im sure this has been covered but for those who dnot know:

    eBay is obviously doing this as it is bringing in new regulations on that day, that many disagree with and there are some calls for a boycott. We're bringing you the info because it's a cheap listing day, it's up to you whether you boycott eBay or not.
