I am offering a "free gift" to whoever registers and posts on the forum. The "free gift" is a link to the Italian version of Pinocchio (it's public domain, since it was written in the late 1800's). What if I run a dutch auction on eBay, and say in the item description that bidders don't actually have to pay me anything....they will receive the link to Pinocchio (giving me the opportunity to promote the website as well). It will cost me the listing and final value fees in order to reach more potential forum subscribers and participants. Do you think this would be acceptable according to eBay's listing guidelines?
I am going to post this question in the Powerseller forum on eBay, and I'll post any interesting responses here as well.
Thanks, everyone!
