A few days ago, somebody mentioned that Ebay has free listing days. This is news to me, but when you see auctions like the one questioned by Wayne, it does seem to be plausible. Can somebody give any additional information about these special listing days? Does one need to have a very high seller rating or other to receive this option? Otherwise, to list a bike like the Centurion LeMans, even as a joke, would still have a cost close to the value of the bike.
