Resolved! New Markdown Manager - Can't add new inventory to sale

What promotional selling should I use?

My guess is that the only way to weather the current collapse in sales is to promote all listings. This is a price-gouge on eBay's part, obviously. It would have been a lot simpler and less work just to raise fees and then promote everything as befor...
