I think maybe eBay is trying to inflate the number of overall listings on site in time for end of quarter financial reports to shareholders. They've had 3 weekends of 100 free listings for casual sellers and now this.

We have reverted to Basic store with 80 free listings a month and are actually saving on fees! We'll change it to Featured store in the lead up to Christmas when we have more stock and more sales. Win, win for us, but you have to wonder how many stores closed when the Basic store fees were increased to $50. Those sellers may never return. The decision makers at eBay seem to forget that most smaller sellers were also buyers. From what I've read on the boards and facebook, the bigger sellers rarely buy on eBay.

I don't really have a lot of time to be doing new listings but I dragged a few old ones out of SMP inventory to take advantage of the freebies.

Good lord... 5000?

It does seem uncannily apropos of the EOFY, shareholder demands, frantic rush of scurrying figures, etc., etc.
