eBay Private Promotion Runs Into a Glitch

Some eBay sellers who received an invitation to a private promotion this week were frustrated in their attempts to take advantage of the sale, and an eBay spokesperson confirmed there was a glitch. eBay invited a select group of registered users to list up to 5,000 fixed-price listings and pay no listing fees. The eBay sale kicked off on Thursday, Nov. 8, but some users who received the invitation said eBay was charging them to list.
