eBay needs your listings

There has been much chatter around the internet that eBay's listing numbers have been significantly declining.

A few week ago, I mentioned that eBay was actually starting to pay for new user referrals. This was the first time eBay needed to resort to such tactics.

Today they unveiled a promotion for no listing fees all month. In the past, eBay has had promotions for no listing fees for a single day. These single day promotions came infrequently and typically on days when no one wanted to list anyway. 30 days is a long time for no listing fees.

It looks like eBay is really pulling out all the stops to try to prop up their listing numbers.
