I listed 68 FP and sold 5. Pretty bad. I have never seen ebay so slow.
I have checked out some of the auctions listed and bids are down but some are doing fairly well as far as sell through just single bids but thats better than none.
Actually I think eBay died and I missed the announcement!

I listed over 600 auctions on FLD as everything I sell has a fixed BIN price.
I've shipped 13 to 26 packages each day since so it's done well for me.

I listed 701 and sold 254. Although, I just listed stuff that failed to sell before and priced it at or around my cost.
I don't use Free Listing Days to sell my good stuff as I don't want it to get lost in all the listings. So, I just dump my old stuff and hope to break even.

Less than 175 sold out of 600 is good sell through rate for you ? Just trying to guage what a good STR is anymore.

I also listed 200 and sold about 38 with a few more that I listed for 10 days to expire on Sunday. Most of my listings were relists of unsold items with a lower price--i listed new items with "ideal" prices (higher than I thought I would get) - sold a mix of "new" and "old" items. This was the best week I've had for sales yet...I can't explain it except it must have been from buyers looking at my other non-FP auctions through the FP listings so I won't say that FLD was a flop even though most of my items did not sell...nothing ventured and something gained! I'd do it again in a heartbeat!

It's hard to guage as the packages contain from 1 to 6 auction wins. I don't keep up with stats that much. All I can say is that I do very well with my auctions or at least I think so. I've been at it for over four years and my sales keep increasing. I have many repeat buyers.
You can check me out at [email protected] if you want to. I have nothing to hide.

Listed approx 150, sold 45. Like bkmunroe I listed mainly items that didn't sell before for good prices, so I am happy with my sales. Still have about a dozen closing tomorrow.

FLD worked very well for me. I think I got up just under 300 auctions before my fingers fell off. I sell beads and beading supplies, so I copied all my auctions, changed to FP and then copied those, so I had about 3 of each item going off over maybe 8-9 hours apart. I usually never list 2 of an item, but am glad I did as alot of my customers bought doubles and triples of the same type bead. I often wondered if I did this if it would work and it did. I also aquired alot of new to me customers, by listing later on the East coast.I always list everything BIN and the free FP gave me a chance to see if customers would buy more if I listed doubles. I had one customer buy 45 auctions alone, and several large multiple win buyers. My stock has never been this low.Now I'm think of opening an Ebay store as my auctionwatch store rarely has a sale. I'm also beadkat on Ebay.

Listed 409 and sold 42. Since these were all items that did not sell on the regular FLD I was pleased. Not too many, but they just came off auctions so I didn't expect even that.
And, now I have two free relist if sold attempts available in the next month as I also copied all my ads over to FP format.

I did something similar as beadkat, had 4 groups of my handmade things going off, one early morning, one mid morning, one early evening, one late night.
Didn't care about sell through $ as much as $ amount - got $150 in sales I wouldn't have had without it - and lots of inquiries, store sales, etc.
Beadkat - sounds like your selling supplies - would possibly fit in very well with an Ebay storefront if you can draw the traffic in!
