This weekend for the 12th – 13th February private registered sellers on eBay UK can .
Once again, as with previous recent free listing promotions, professional listing tools are barred – only the Sell Your Item form can be used if you want to qualify for free listings. However the promotion is regardless of start price so you can set an automatic reserve at no cost by choosing the minimum price you want your item to realise.

Haven’t had one of those in ages, must have been at least 2 weeks…..
I thought that it was longer than 2 weeks so I looked it up. There were Free Listing Weekends on the 8th/9th January so a month ago; December 4th/5th again a month gap; November 6th/7th again a month gap; then October 23rd/24th two weeks gap; October 9th/10 again a 2 week gap. Also of course there is the 100 free listings per month at 99p to take into account. These weekends must do interesting things to ebays figures. From my point of view I welcome them indeed why don’t ebay go the whole hog and get rid of listing fees after all for many private sellers the combination of fees must mean that ebay/Paypal is making more out of each transaction than the seller is.
Are ebay planning to take over DFS with this endless sale pricing?
