Free Listing Day is Wednesday, January 15
Wednesday, January 15 is a free listing day on Yahoo! Auctions. For one day only, we've waived the listing fees on every item you submit. Between 12:01 a.m. PST and 11:59 p.m. PST on Wednesday, you can submit as many auctions as you like for free.
Buyers, mark your calendars and get ready to bid! Last year, our free listing days generated thousands of new auctions. There were great items in hundreds of popular auction categories.
Sellers, list your stuff on Yahoo! Auctions and make great profits. We're keeping fees low and providing great extras for free. Upload images; use the Seller's Manager to track your inventory; create a custom look with your own Auction Booth - all at no additional cost!
(Please note: Transaction fees on successful auctions and special promotional fees for featured listings, gift icons, etc., still apply during this promotion.)

It is also posted on their announcement board. Personally I think it is great timing. Yahoo is picking back up again after ebay's FLD so sales should be decent. I am ready to post many listings. Come on Wednesday!!!

Wow that sounds like some promotion there. Now if they would get serious and advertise. I wonder if TAG will send out a special email? Probally not. Tomorrow is going to be very busy!

This FLD should be interesting.Jan 15 is also the day Yahoo announces 4th quarter numbers--so I am willing to bet that auctions are mentioned in the PR as well. Might be a good time to list with some extra traffic generated by Yahoo in the news.
