There’s a (13th September) for auctions launched by private sellers. There are a few restrictions such as the motors category and of course business sellers aren’t eligible to participate. Any listing upgrade fees and final value fees will still apply.
I know our comments will be full of two issues which I’ll try to cover: Why no free listings for Business sellers, well for them listings can be as little as a penny for multiple quantity 30 BIN listings anyway so any discount is pretty much irrelevant.
The second issue is that the site will be flooded with listings from “private” sellers who aren’t really private sellers. This is really something that eBay do need to address and perhaps start to implement realistic restrictions on how many listings “private” sellers can list in a particular time frame.
