Quote:Selling fees are now more closely based on your selling success in the Photography and Toys & Games categories!
Between 23rd October and 31st December 2007 inclusive in the Photography and Toys and Games categories, the Gallery listing upgrade feature will be free and Insertion Fees will be reduced. For example, a listing with a Gallery photo starting at 99p will now only cost 5p compared to 30p normally, a massive saving of 25p per listing. Final value fees will be increased, but you only pay these if your item sells.
Terms and conditions apply, please see below.
