I'm not a conspiracy theorist (HA!) but in two weeks, Meg Whitman is up for the GOP nomination. And this week, eBay is offering free listings.

Seriously, this needs to be considered. Bad PR for eBay is bad PR for Meg. Conversely, good PR for eBay is good PR for Meg. Even though her ties are theoretically severed with the company, her fortunes are still tied with the company. She's the face of the company. She's the person most people blame for the constant fee increases (in the shape of higher commissions) which eBay have implemented under the guise of "new lower fees!"
