How to Set Up a Promotion/Sale

Setting up a promotional sale, whereby your listed items are discounted by a flat percentage for the duration of the sale, is an easy process: 

1. Navigate to your Promotions Manager page, ensure that Sale is selected (rather than "Port Sale"), and click the Continue button
2. Click in the box next to Choose the listing date and select the day on which your sale will start
3. Click the dropdown box next to Choose the duration and select the number of days that your sale will run (1 to 11 days)
4. Click the dropdown box next to Select your base sale discount and select the flat percentage by which your entire listed inventory will be discounted for the duration of your sale
5. Manually modify the discount percentage of any individual items in the list of your items under the Promotion Preview column heading
6. Scroll down to the bottom of the page and click Save Changes & Continue to proceed to the final confirmation screen
7. Review the details of your sale and click Approve Promotion to lock in the details of the promotion, or the Edit button to return to the page where you can edit your sale details.

By approving your promotion, your sale will go live (i.e., go into effect) on the listing date that you specified in Step 3. If the listing date is left blank, the sale will go live as soon as possible. All new sales are listed at the top of the hour.

Unlike Port Sales, Promotions cannot be restricted by any filters and apply to all items in For Sale in your Inventory. 

Important note: items that you price during the duration of your sale, will have the sale discount automatically applied.

A sale may be canceled at any time by returning to your Promotions Manager page and selecting Cancel under the Actions column.
