Posted at June 23, 2005, 9:44 am: In today's auctionbytes letter there was a link to ebay Canada having a 5 cent listing day on the 26th of June. http://pages.ebay.ca/promo/JuneAnniversary/5centsale.html On the same page the implication was made it may also be on ebay U.S. To get this price you will need to list your items for 99 cents or less. Assuming that ebay goes forward with this promotion DO NOT PARTICIPATE. You will take a financial bath. Why would ebay do this? Are they feeling overly generous to celebrate their 10 year anniversary? Not hardly. What happens 7 days from Sunday the 26th? It is the 4th of July weekend which means almost NO ONE will be around to look at the listings on ebay. Not only will you have paid ebay a lot of money in add on fees (even though the listing fee was only a nickel things like gallery, buy it now etc. will still be full price) but your items will hammer down with few bids (if any). Most people are on vacation and traveling on the 4th of July weekend. Since you will have to start bidding at less than a buck that does not bode well for profitable results. Avoid this one folks. I am telling you from experience. Selling items on holiday weekends is NOT a profitable venture.
