About this deal

80% off eBay Sellers fees offer from Friday 15/12, opt in if eligible.


If not eligible try the 70% offer link


4260776-tXuLj.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.

    I am never eligible
    yodijov955's avatar
    Ok so was I never eligible. I spoke to customer support and they told me for that I need to have a seller account as in the sense at least sell something on eBay. I sold one item and now I am eligible for these deals. So just sell something once then you should be getting it. Sorry I just made assumptions that you don't have a seller account yet but I used to get frustrated and now I found a way.

    Unfortunately, you can no longer sign up for this promotional offer because it has expired. (again)
  3. MrBestDeal's avatar
    All folks who are not eligible try to sell a couple of items.

    Based on personal experience, this may trigger eligibility for this promotion. (edited)

    So do I just put some random items at unreasonable prices and act like I want to sell stuff and then wait for the offer to really sell stuff ? 😄
  4. twistedpixel's avatar
    Is this 80% (or 70%) off the final value fee? So for examples £50 sale would normally be £6.25 but now £1.25 (£1.80 with 70% off)? Plus whatever insertion fee? Just want to check before I sell something expensive, never used these offers.

    With the promotion running fortnightly, most people looking to take advantage of the Christmas buyers, will have done so already, with BIN's listed 7-10 days ago and auctions that finished the past Fri-Sun. This Friday to Tuesday will be the time to list any collectables or goods in short supply, with premium BIN pricing and Royal Mail 1st Class signed for delivery.

    Shows as expire for me

    Can anyone help? I constantly since July get that when I click on these I am not eligible/expired. Not sure how I can overcome or find out what the issue is? Anyone know please or what settings I can look at on ebay?

    Absolutely nothing you can do. Ebay have deemed you "not worthy" of these offers, so they won't work.
    I was lucky for a couple of years, every single one of these worked for me.
    Haven't had one work for over a year now.

    If you are not getting the offer, just opt in to marketing emails from eBay in your account.

    Go to My eBay, Account tab, communication preferences, marketing communications, tick 'Selling promotions'.
    JamesB83's avatar
    I did that a while ago it makes no difference
  9. Gamblor64's avatar
    Just to be clear, do listings created on Friday qualify for the offer? Or from Saturday? It's always confusing when they use midnight as the start time!
    stovy's avatar
    Friday

    I have two questions:
    If I use a template to list multiple items that are the same, will I be charged a fee? As I want to be elegible for the selling fee. And I take it if I use Multi-quantity listings then I won't be able to take advantage of the ebay selling fees promo?
    AdrianK_'s avatar
    You need single items as multi-quantity is a business-like practice according to eBay so won't qualify for 80% off. You can check if your items qualify for the discount after you list them from ebay.co.uk/sh/ovw and promotional offers blade.
  11. KencoOutMyNostrils's avatar
    I've read that people sometimes make placeholder listings during these promotions so they can list actual items later

    How does that work? Do you just make a live listing with a stupid price and random description or do you save it as a draft somewhere instead?
    applefanboy25's avatar
    Yeah that’s all I do Is list something with barely any details and a high price (edited)

  16. Jedi-Panda's avatar
    Not had any offers since feb, account in good standing order with 100% feedback. Can any ebay rep get me back on the list. Cheers.
  17. xxbluedragonxx's avatar
    No 80% 70% or £1 deal on my main account all year nor on new account with all new details (one month old)

    This after asking Customer Support too 3 times, each time they said they’d get marketing to sort it out. Yes I tried during the offer weekends too. Zilch.

    If only someone made an eBay competitor with permanently reduced fees… (edited)

    Another 2 weeks, another 80% off Ebay listing
    yodijov955's avatar
    So if I even sell a phone it will be 80% off on fees yes? So instead or 10% say they charge 2%?
  19. gazm2k5's avatar
    Why do these never work for me? It just says it's invitation only. How do you get invited?
  20. carltonbp's avatar
    Not had any of these for 10 months now. Worked out the other evening that in the previous 12 months they made more from me than this year where they've charged their 13.7%. Sold 5 things this year, no new listings, just let them keep auto-renewing till run out. I've 68 items feb 22-23, from feb 23 to now 37 orders. Maybe petty but I've got nearly 1,800 feedback over 20 years and not even a neutral feedback and afaik never below above standard.

    Thanks OP, just what I needed!

    I signed up to Vinted a couple of months back, and have to say, it’s much more lively and user friendly, until today anyway!

    Sold a pair of new trainers and the buyer has come back and said they think they’re counterfeit (they’re not). The buyer has then said they are different to what they were expecting, when the counterfeit false claims weren’t working for them! After circa 2 weeks, Vinted have stepped in and said on this occasion the buyer can return the trainers to me. For what reason? Shocking, slow customer service. Learned not to sell anything branded on Vinted; you can send a photo of a receipt and they’ll still side with the buyer.
    Nib1337's avatar
    sounds like a problem with the buyer, not Vinted themselves. The buyer has the advantage of returning goods if they're not happy with them. If I were you, I'd check the item thoroughly when they return it to make sure they haven't swapped them out for a different pair.
