Got mine promptly at 10:00 AM, and grabbed something I'd been waiting on the eBucks incentive to buy. I waited so long for the eBucks that I'm surprised the coin was still on eBay.
I got 200 additional free listings. Considering that it's been 15 years or more since I listed more than 10 items in a month, a free-listings offer doesn't really give me any additional motivation. Since they've gone back to allowing eBay-Bucks bonuses in non-bullion Coins and Paper Money categories, I'll have to see if I can find something worthwhile to list. An extra 8% might make it possible to set up a deal that makes both me and a buyer happy.
If the end of the month is a tough time for quite a few people, and sales reflect that, it would explain why eBay runs these promotions when they do.
