he link I gave has the running time of the promotion down to the seconds. It ends at the end of the second quarter financial reports. That may be quite important timing.
I surely would like to know how this big step -- halving of FVFs -- came about and who suggested the idea to the big guns. Or was it a big gun who just looked at the numbers and said, YIKES! We have to do something here.
In a post from late last year, I remember that I asked the question "what more could eBay do to encourage sellers to list after they've offered one million free listings? What's next? Discounts on FVFs was one of my guesses . They're having to get creative since they've given away so many free listings that many sellers won't list here unless its free. But discounts on FVFs is a slippery slope.
I have no idea how many sellers the promotion was offered to, so please post if you have gotten an invitation. There are a number of restrictions on the offer so please check the link for info.
Here's a part of the info I thought was interesting. This sounds odd to me. Sounds like a lot of checking if you got credited for half of the FVFs. And will the FVFs count as FULL FVFs in the quarterly report?
I find it interesting that any new listings (speaking from personal experience) seem to get a boost for a couple of days, and then fall into the eBay black hole, but are resurrected again the last couple of days before they end.
It's also interesting that there will be weeks without a sale, and then all of a sudden, there are sales several days in a row.
I don't believe in that many coincidences.
Will check out topaze.
