The Offer
Direct Link (check ‘Activate Now’ to see if you are eligible)
- Sell expensive items on eBay and pay just a $10 final commission fee to eBay on the sale, max 10 items
- Must list before April 27 to get this rate
The standard commission fee is 10% and items that sell for more than $100 could have an eBay commission fee (‘Final Value Fee’) of much more than $10; with this promo, $10 is the max you’ll pay. For example, if something sells for $500, you’ll pay $10 instead of $50.
Some have had success getting this offer with the above link even though they didn’t get the email invitation from eBay.

Our Verdict
Great deal for big items in particular. I’d guess that they only sent this offer to people who aren’t heavy eBay sellers so as to lure them in.
Does this mean as long as I activated and list the item by 4/27, I will pay at max $10 fee regardless when the item is sold? Or does it mean I have to both list and sell it by 4/27 in order to be qualified?
Ya first time eligible as well!!
Any reason not to relist all my items (10 most expensive ones?) I see no reason why I wouldnt get it??
The whole “midnight” detail confuses me, is the promotion available now or do I have to wait 8 hours until 12:00pt? My husbands account has the offer, and we want to get started right away.
Sorry, that part is my mistake, not eBay’s. It’s already started. Let me fix this.
surprised i was eligible. i’ve never been eligible for any of the 4X ebay bucks offers, and didn’t get the email. Pleasant surprise! Now to acquire and sell as many lots of $200 gift cards as I can…
