Thanks and posted, remember that you can shop on eBay using an RFD link (http://www.qksrv.net/click-749547-5062572).

Cool. Didn't know about the RFD link before - I will be using it.

I don't understand why eBay doesn't offer more of these promotions for current sellers. There must be a saturation point where everyone who wants to sell on eBay already has an account.

I don't know why this 5 free listings for new sellers isn't a standard thing. I have considered selling things many times before but I always figure I will wait for the 5 free - then I end up being out of town when it is on. I figure no point in listing if I won't be home to answer questions etc..

I don't think eBay is close to hitting that point. :)

It comes around fairly often, and this time you have multiple days to take advantage of it.
