Yes, the listing will “end” in 29 days and then immediately and automatically relist itself. It will contine to relist until the item sells or the seller ends it. The link to the update is below with everything you need to know.

Every rule or tidbit is in place to either 1) MAKE YOU BUY MORE or 2) MAKE YOU SELL MORE or finally 3) MAKE MORE PROFITS FOR THE COMPANY.   By showing that the listing is only available for 28 more days you're telling un-knowledgeable buyers that they only have 28 days to buy the item before it disappears.  Which isn't the case, obviously, but if you don't sell on ebay you don't know that.

Because GTC ("good 'til canceled") does not mean FTC ("free 'til canceled"), it means WWCYIFETDTYRTC ("we will charge you insertion fees every thirty days 'til you remember to cancel").

Oh!  So it is like those "free trial" scams that you have to cancel before they charge you because you have to supply your credit card to get the "free" thing.

So... eBay is a scam site now.

I'll tell you why , so you forget to cancel them and ebay can rob you with relisting fees , This will backfire on these Millennial Democrats , Just cancel all your auctions on the 29th of every month 28 for Feb , Then relist the ones you want to on the 1st , Let ebay loose revenue for those 2 or 3 days , They are banking on people not paying attention 

I also remember a few years ago ebay lost a class auction suit for there practices with Good Till Cancelled

One more thing its much cheaper and easier to sell on Amazon , I've been slowly weeding myself away from depending on ebay , I can no linger afford to give these crooks 10% plus in fees including stealing 10% of my shipping money which in turn makes sellers have to charge more and then they get more IT'S CRAZY
