eBay final value fee...

Hi all. Does anyone have any idea when the next eBay 70 or 80% off final value fee deal will happen? I have quite an expensive item I need to list but don't want to pay £40 odd in listing fees. Thanks 🫶

    The most asked question on HUKD, even though the answer is almost always: if there isn't one this week, there will be next week.

    Not over Xmas when people are selling unwanted presents.

    Watch out for the HRMC!

    eBay has been sharing data for over 10 years but until now, it was voluntary. Now, it is mandatory with a lot more details thanks to HMRC spending £36Mn on a new system and 20 odd staff. They will probably focus on the high volume sellers using multiple personal accounts and not declaring the income. (edited)

    I did some searching and on the ebay community pages chat someone has posted...

    I've just spoken with one of their agents, she said that eBay used to offer the 80% discount over weekends at regular intervals but now they've moved away from that model and will only be sending discount offers randomly as they are targeting specific selling groups in specific areas and offering more discounts to new customers or sellers that haven't sold for a while rather than existing ones who sell more often. Very disappointing I must say, I'll be going back to Facebook and using PayPal which is 2.9% fee + 30p so not too high. She said that my account would be offered promotions in the future but the system determines when and what with no human input so it'll be totally random from now on. No reward for loyalty it seems!"

    Sad if true!

    doubt that, the drop off is huge without offers, already signs of the offers restarting this week.
