ValueCategory ( boolean ) [0..1]

Some eBay sites may select a few categories and designate them as "value categories". These are typically selected from categories where buyers can find great deals. (Not all categories with great deals are designated as value categories.) This designation can change over time.

For example, if you attempt to list in two categories and the PrimaryCategory or SecondaryCategory is a value category, then eBay drops the SecondaryCategory and lists the item in the PrimaryCategory only.
