Item I've had listed for years. Made the mistake of taking up the 'promoted listing' option. Very poor response. Only way you can cancel it is to end the listing and relist, which results in the info. that you've sold hundreds of these things being dropped - yeah, back to square 1.
Schedule a discount promotion to try and generate a few extra sales. All items in the sale skipped because they are 'new' listings. Thanks eBay, previous to my taking up your promoted listing option these items had been continuously listed for the past 4 years.
The usual **bleep** from this totally flawed organisation.
