No big deal. For car auctions, eBay makes most of their money on final value fees.

Not true. $40.00 to list a car. $40.00 FVF no matter what it sells for. And this promotion doesn't apply to cars or trucks. Only parts and accessories.

Listing counts are flat...not rising like they usually do at this time of year. I expect we'll be seeing more promos soon.

stonecold613, I stand corrected. eBay profits greatly from both Listing Fees AND Final Value Fees for car auctions.

Too bad the promotion only applies to parts and accessories, not vehicles.
