  I think it is the .99$ auction no reserve, 100 a month or something.

  I hope they don't stop giving free listing away, every little bit of money that I can save is great, whether it be a 10 cent 99 cents listing or a list at any price free listing.
  
  if it makes you feel any better, I don't list reprints/counterfeits, but agree with you that ebay should do something to limit or stop all the reprint listings, I know that ebay has a category for reprints , but no one ever uses it. I feel your pain on the reprint listings, the only thing I can think of is to report the auctions if they are not listed in the proper category.
  plus I don't know how to determine how many of the reprint listings are from the free listings & how many are actually paying for the listing. jmho

  It has to be the free listings because 99% of the ones that are listed as reprints NEVER sell. I don't think people would keep listing reprints with 99 cent opening bids if they were not selling and it was costing them listing fees. That would make absolutely no sense.

  I like the free listings, hopefully they help me pair down my collection a bit. reprints in pre-war suck though... They ought to just require reprints to be identified in the listing title, that way we could filter them all out with a -reprint

  How about a category just for reprints?
