Hi,
I may be way off in left field wishing for one, but doesn't ebay usually have a free list or cheaper listing day around or before Labor Day? Has anyone seen anything posted other than the cheaper UK day on Thursday? Thanks alot.

I can only remember 2 free listing days during the summer months. One was a peace offering to make amends for a 21 hour outage they suffered, and the other was a complete surprise that came out of nowhere as a thank you to the sellers. I think it was probably an experiment to see the effect it would have on their bottom line during the summer slump. The only FLD you can half way count on is the day or two after Christmas.

Always in December. They HAVE done it in June in the past. I don't ever remember one near Labor Day.
That's not to say they could not do SOME kind of promotion, 10 cent fixed price, free store listings or something along those lines. They've been pretty unpredictable with those kind of things recently.

The UK is having a 10 euro listing day. Not a much of a price break though if you consider that is about 19 cents US.
