I just noticed that I can no longer do 30 day BIN/OBO listings on ebay anymore. The only option is Good Till Cancelled. Just got off the phone with Ebay and they confirmed that Good Till Cancelled is the only option now. So yeah…thanks Ebay lol

yeah i saw that yesterday too. thank you for confirming.
I never used nor like the 30 day but many sellers liked it for assorted reasons.
It was really useful for people that don’t have stores but have more cards to sell than eBay lets your list for free. I’d list my max for free and then cycle out whatever didn’t sell for something different the next month. Now with Good Till Cancelled you have to really be on top of your listings (especially if you get extra promotional listings from eBay) so that you aren’t paying to list cheap cards repeatedly. It was enough to force me to upgrade to a store.

Exactly, it makes managing listing fees 1000% harder and its a blatantly underhanded way for ebay to bleed more money from sellers. Especially with promotional offers like an additional 250 free listing/100 listings for a nickel each. They’re just hoping you forget to cancel so they can collect another $35 to $100 from you ontop of their 10% cut/store fees lol.

The new meta is 10 day auction with buy it now pricing and best offer

This would be a good idea, if ebay didn’t charge you an additional insertion fee when listing auctions with a buy it now option.
(you can’t never list for free this way, even with a premium or anchor store)
edit: never mind, I assume you meant just changing the starting price to what you would normally list it for, that should work.
