Whether you're starting your Spring cleaning, looking to make some extra cash, or just curious about selling on eBay, there's no better time to list than Thursday 24th February when the basic insertion fee is just 5p!
Thursday 24th February 2005, sellers listing in Auction-style, Auction-with-BIN or BIN-Only (Fixed Price) formats in an eligible category, will pay 5 pence (£0.05 GBP) insertion fee regardless of the insertion fee tranche.
  • Only listings in British Pounds Sterling on eBay.co.uk will qualify for 5p Listing fees. Auction-style listings, Auction with Buy It Now (Buy It Now fee still applies - see below) and Fixed Price (Buy It Now).
  • Any item previously scheduled to go live on Thursday 24th February 2005 will qualify for the 5 pence insertion fee promotion.
  • If you re-list an item on Thursday 24th February 2005 that had previously closed without a successful sale, the re-list will qualify for the 5 pence insertion fee promotion, inline with eBay's standard re-list policy.
  • Items listed in the Automotive (Cars, Classic Cars, Motorcycles or Other Vehicles) and Real Estate categories.
  • Multiple-Item Auction format listings (also known as Dutch Auctions).
  • Identical listings that do not comply with our Duplicate Listings policy.
  • Shops Inventory Format listings.
  • Any item listed on 24th February 2005 but scheduled to start after the promotion has finished will NOT qualify for the promotion.

Thursday 24th February 2005 between 00:00:01 GMT until 23:59:59 GMT
  • If the listing is listed in 2 categories, the insertion fee will be 5p times 2 ie 10 pence.
  • If you revise a qualifying listing created on 24th February at a later date, you will be charged the normal insertion fee, NOT the 5 pence promotional fee.
  • If your item qualifies for this promotion, the "sell your item" form will show that a 5p insertion fee has been charged
