About this deal

This deal is expired. Here are some options that might interest you:

4226893_1.jpg

What's it all about?

  • Get 80% off variable percentage final value fees ("FVF") per listing in final value fees if the item sells and pay no insertion fee.
  • A fixed order level fee of 30p and other fees, including any International fees, still apply.
  • Promotion is valid for up to 100 listings on eBay.
  • Listings must start during the promotional period.
  • Listings can be auction-style or fixed price format.
  • The promotion start and end dates are included in the email we send to invited sellers.
  • Items must sell within the first listing period.
  • Sounds good, where do I find the promotion and how do I sign up?

You can take part in the promotion on eBay.co.uk. Eligible sellers will receive an email with the RSVP link to the offer. You must opt in to the promotion by clicking on this link before any of your 100 listings start.

Anything else I need to know?

  • eBay charge an FVF when your item(s) sell(s). The FVF charged per order consists of: (i) a variable portion (“Variable Portion FVF”) which is calculated as a percentage of the Total Sale Amount; and (ii) a fixed portion (“Fixed Portion FVF”) for example 30p. The Total Sale Amount means the amount the buyer pays for an order, including the item price, postage, taxes and any other applicable fees.
  • The FVF Discount in this promotion applies to the Variable Portion FVF (net of any other discounts) in respect of the eligible items’ Total Sale Amounts. For example, if you would have been charged 12.80% on the Total Sales Amount, the 80% FVF discount will reduce this to 2.56%. The Fixed Portion FVF (e.g. 30p) will not be discounted. Therefore, the fixed charge of 30p per order will still apply.
  • You won't pay an insertion fee for each of the 100 listings. Listing upgrade fees will still apply and will be charged according to the eBay fees policy.
  • You may also be subject to International fees.
  • The number of listings eligible under this promotion may be less where seller restrictions apply. Click here to learn more about selling allowances.

Who can take part?

  • This Promotion is open to all registered Private Sellers who (a) have been invited to take part, (b) are registered to managed payments, and (c) have actively opted in (“Eligible Sellers”). If you have not registered for managed payments you will be prompted to update your details after you opt-in to the Promotion.
  • Participation is linked to the seller's account and is not transferable.
  • Eligible Sellers’ accounts must meet eBay minimum seller performance standards.
  • Please sign in to My eBay and view your seller standards dashboard to verify whether your account is currently meeting the standards. The seller standards dashboard is available to all sellers here.
  • If you registered after 15 March 2011 or haven't listed any items for a while, you may have a listing allowance of 10 items per month or of £650 per month, whichever is reached first. You may be able to increase this allowance by providing additional verification.
  • An eligible item previously scheduled to go live during the promotional period will qualify for the promotion only if you have opted in to the promotion before the listing starts.
  • If an item that is eligible for the promotion had previously closed without a successful sale and is re-listed during the promotion period, it will form a part of the 100 listings limit of the promotion.
  • You will not receive a refund of your original insertion fee if the item sells.
  • Listings do not have to successfully sell during the promotional period to be eligible.
  • If an item qualifies for the promotion and when the item sells, the invoice will indicate the fee including the discount. Please note: if the item does not sell the first time and if you relist it after the promotional period or if it is automatically relisted during the promotional period, standard final value fees will be charged according to the eBay fees policy when the relisted item sells.
  • Items that are automatically relisted through the Automatic relist function or the Good 'Till Cancelled function will be charged.
  • Only single quantity listings are eligible.
  • For items listed in 2 or more categories, only the insertion fee for the first category is included. Standard insertion fees will be charged for listing the same item for each additional category, according to the eBay fees policy.
  • Free listings in this promotion do not count towards your monthly 1000 free listings.
  • Your first listing period may vary and is dependent on the listing format you choose (e.g. – auction-style vs buy-it-now), the duration of the listing you choose and the listing experience you use. The first listing period will be considered to have been ended when the listing you create first renews or relists.

    Quick tip: Always take a screenshot once you’ve accepted the offer.

    Sometimes an eBay representatives requests for one as evidence if you encounter a problem. (edited)

    If you scroll down to the bottom of your Selling page in the app or Seller Hub you see Selling Promotions where it counts down your allowance from 100 listings to 99, 98 etc. Then you know it's working.

    Telling me the Promotion has expired heat added though (edited)
    J_Staunton's avatar
    You've either only qualified for the "other" promotion (70% rather than 80%) or you have to wait til the day itself. Seems to vary.

    Interesting, but as the £1, £2 & £3 offers just don't appear anymore and I've never seen 50% off. A little irrelevant.

    It dose not start till 3nov I signed up about 2 weeks ago I thought it started then  I sold  a phone for £600 today had to fees of £98 is that right first time selling on eBay 
    bozo007's avatar
    The standard fee is 12.8% + 30p; with the 80% discount, it is 2.56% + 30p. It is highly likely you didn't sign up in previous offer or listed multiple quantities or didn't list during the offer period. (edited)

    If i want to set up a listing to be scheduled this Friday (i do this today for example) would this take into account the 80% final offer or would i have to wait till friday to actually list it for the offer to work? Thanks
    bozo007's avatar
    You have to first opt in for the offer and then list during the offer window.

    Completely new to ebay selling but I have a lot of clutter I could do with getting rid of! Do the items need to sell between the 3 day period, or do they only need listed between this time?
    CharlieCheeze's avatar

    You only need to list them during the offer period. So long as they sell within the first listing period, you benefit from the discount on fees

    For people who sells high value items, what’s the best way to avoid scammers other than checking their profile reviews?
    Kay_Dot's avatar
    Take a photo of item when you’re packaging. Send it tracked and signed for. And only sell to high reviewed / old accounts.

    Has anyone ever had this promotion taken away from them, and then given back? I had it for a while, lost it a couple months ago... now it’s re-appeared!

    Yes, happens to me on my other account every so often. No idea why.
  9. PotatoSon's avatar
    Did anyone else add this to their account (during the elligibility period), have it show in their "Selling promotions" section but when they went to go list the number did not go down? I've called eBay and they said it was never even activated on my account despite me having clicked the link, been eligible, activated and showing in my Selling promotions.

    I've just sold something and had the full fees applied. The listing was made AFTER I applied the promotion.

    I always screenshot the offer accepted page as this happened to me once
  10. martmitch's avatar
    all expired for a long time now 😔

    I don`t get why these are posted. You can`t just "Get Deal" by clicking. Its invitation only through your Ebay account. Your either "Invited" with a message on Ebay...or you're not invited. No one gets it by clicking "Get Deal".
    micronX7's avatar
    It's a fair point. I often think the same. It's a bit like the Amazon offers, not everyone gets them but often I have taken them up when I otherwise wouldn't know anything about them. It's a shame there isn't a different way to post them because "get deal" isn't appropriate like you say.
  12. xxbluedragonxx's avatar
    I never get these offers anymore. Always “expired” on my main account.

    I created a new account last week with different details and “invite only” on that one.

    Seems eBay don’t want me to sell on their platform.
  13. jonty_hanlon's avatar
    Fantastic once again! Many thanks. Works on one of mine, but not the other, but expect it’ll work on the other account on Friday as usual.
  14. nightcycler's avatar
    Same here. Got a bunch of stuff to sell, just not eligible for any of these offers!

    I'm sure my eBay messages box was always full of offers (though I never checked it), now its empty

    Had a feeling one was coming up this week! Fortnightly now, and saves me a small fortune!
    T_Gosling's avatar
    Make The most of it, they will suddenly stop sending them to you altogether!

    PSA I recently found out the hard way that eBay have an "International Fee" if you sell to an international buyer
    Baldricky's avatar
    To be fair, the fees are so low, they are typically offset by the additional bid increment required for the international bidder to win the item. (edited)

    Wonder why I was downgraded to the 70% so annoying I can't get this anymore
  28. northie_1980's avatar
    Worked for me. Normally end up on 70%, wonder what changed.
  29. kiddy's avatar
    Thanks, worked for me. 
  30. TEXY123's avatar
    Wow, I’ve actually got it. I was waiting for months to get one, always expired. Sold three items last week for £650 in total and now I’m accepted.

    got the offer again thanks OP, honestly ebay for as bad as they treat their sellers these offers are the only reason i sell there.
    Cheap_as_Chimps's avatar
    No offers for me so i'm not selling anything on there.
  34. ellessdee's avatar
    These never work for me
  35. font2013's avatar
    I love this! Used it two weeks ago to sell a pc and router. £200 in the bank woo. Then i spent it on an iphone off ebay too haha. Going to use it again to sell my old iphone on ebay! (edited)
  36. Bonji's avatar
    I was never eligible for these, and hadn’t sold anything for a few years, sold an item a few weeks ago and have now been offered two weekends of these. Love it. Makes such a difference!
  37. Lyonzo's avatar
    I haven’t been eligible for 1 of these in months now- infuriating!
    doppo666's avatar
    Try over a year! It’s pretty annoying how they pick and choose accounts to be eligible

    I opened a new one thinking that will work it worked once I sold one item then it’s not eligible either
  38. YIDDO's avatar
    70% link please
    J_Staunton's avatar

  39. Mr_Fish_One's avatar
    Hope this works, didn’t work on mine a couple a couple of weeks ago
  40. sergiup's avatar
    Nope... Literally none of them have worked for me for the last few months.

    There must be a reason
