eBay Italy are holding a week long , but only if you have an eBay shop.
The promotion includes the Featured Immediately enhancement which randomly selects five listings for showcased visibility on the first page of search results. This is available either for the first seven days or the entire duration of the listing.
eBay Italy have a 30 day listing format costing as little as €0.01 for premium shop owners and best matched items with the most sales get priority. By using Featured Immediately sellers are able to artificially promote their listings in best match so this is a valuable feature to use for multiple item listings.
Two other enhancements are included in the promo – Featured Plus and visibility Plus Package which includes Bold, Border, Highlight, Featured Immediately, and Featured Plus. The promotion runs from the 8th to the 15th of July

Featured Immediately?
Is that a way to game the Best Match in Itay then? Legally of course.

I sincerely hope this rolls out Ebay wide.
One of Ebays better ideas (30 day BIN).

Featured immediately is designed to get your listings off to a good start. Part of Best Match takes into account the popularity of your listing measured by how many people buy from it. On a multiple item listing the more sales the more likely it is to be presented favourably under Best Match.
Now of course if you’ve had a few sales that’s all to the good, but if not your listing may be buried. What Featured Immediately does is to give it a shot of being at the top of Best Match for a while so that buyers can see it – if it’s a good deal and they buy from your listing then from then on it’ll be promoted accordingly as a desirable listing so yes – a legal way to game Best Match, but one you have to pay for.
