It didn’t take eBay very long to offer another free-listing period. But this time they one-upped themselves and made it a “Free-Listing Month.”

What’s going on here?

I have definitely noticed a decline in quality items being offered on the Bay, and after I saw this email I realized I wasn’t dreaming. It’s obviously a move for eBay to get more sellers during this “dry” time.

A quick look at an eBay stock analysis chart from the past three months shows that the company has been on a gradual decline since the beginning of August, but definitely nothing to be worried about yet.

Readers may want to take note that, like for the last free-listing day, eBay requires participants to pay for the Gallery thumbnail and to start bidding below 10 bucks.

One of our ad guys showed me a neat little site today called auctionblip.com…

I haven’t had a chance to navigate every portion of it yet, but it appears to be a neat service. From my understanding, all you have to do is tell the program what items you are interested in and it will send you an email notification every time your selected item is offered via an auction.
There is a nominal fee that goes with this nifty program, but if it ensures you never miss an important item again, then the price is a totally worth it.
