Hi all,

Thought I would pass this on from and it is expiring at Midnight UK Time:

http://www.hotukdeals.com/vouchers/20-off-ebay-using-promo-c…

I just tried it on a LG G4 and it brought the price down to AU $601.03 delivered (if people need a deal):
http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/NEW-LG-G4-H815-32GB-4G-LTE-Factor…

Easiest way I found was to search for the item on ebay.com.au then when you're on the item page, change the address to ebay.co.uk and follow on with that.

edit: turns out you can use it from the ebay.com.au site as well, thanks st33p!
Discount capped to around $98AUD in that case, based on a poor conversion rate.

Feel free to post any good deals if you find any as I don't have much time to search at the moment.

The limit as per link above is "Maximum discount of £50 (£250 spend)" and also limited to one transaction.

Thanks all!

    WOW!!! I JUST MISSED IT WAS TOO BUSY FINDING OTHER STUFF TO BUY TOGETHER!

    SO MAD (at myself)!

    No Crossover 2795QHD monitor for me and no 8TB HDD for me.

    Haha the UK now knows what getting ozbargained is!

    • superforever on 15/06/2015 - 21:46

      Is that code with a limited number to use? If not nothing to do with us?

      • lovebargain87 on 15/06/2015 - 22:00

        Yes but if we didn't use the code, given the amount of deals posted here, then the code can still be used now. Isn't it called Ozbargained?

        • superforever on 15/06/2015 - 22:07

          I think may be they just realized that this code should not work with ebay.com.au

          But last time the US code also worked here.

  • naira on 15/06/2015 - 21:43

    Thanks Frogduck for the code and st33p for confirming it works in AU site and elcheapoinoz for checking if we can still avail the $50 voucher. I was able to buy a Fluke multimeter from US seller, pasta maker from BingLee, ink for my laser printer. I am not sure if I have saved a lot or spent more than I wanted to :-)

  • BlazinPast on 15/06/2015 - 21:47

    A person from UKhotdeals forum (don't know how to link it here): "Just called them and there systems are down".

    I guess there's a chance it can still come back to life!

    • bamzero on 15/06/2015 - 21:51

      Yeah was just having a read of that, trying to see the T&C's of the deal somewhere.
      I'm hopeful it will come back :)

    • Osiris on 15/06/2015 - 21:52

      Given we know they can lock their codes down well (when they want), wouldn't surprise me if it comes back up for UK only. Fingers crossed though for more global goodness :)

      • scozzie on 15/06/2015 - 21:54

        Good point…..wouldn't surprise me.

    • scozzie on 15/06/2015 - 21:52

      I've done reading on UK sites, and it's definitely on until midnight UK time, 9am tomorrow here. Might be copping a flogging with the deal, so hopefully it'll be back up soon.

  • mr kindface on 15/06/2015 - 21:48

    pooop. It's dead for the UK people too, lets hope the code is only down temporarily…please…

  • udyz on 15/06/2015 - 21:50

    how do you check if the coupon works or not before committing to buy?

    • Circly on 15/06/2015 - 21:52

      code looks to be expired

      • udyz on 15/06/2015 - 21:55

        Ya
        I was buying the electric toothbrush from shaver shop 20min ago, before ppl started posting code does not work…
        I had to commit to buy to apply the coupon… and the code did not work..
        so now i have to pay $99….

          you can request to cancel order.

      Add to cart rather than buy it now

      • udyz on 15/06/2015 - 21:56

        damn…. will have to be cautious next time…
        was too exited to buy….

      • naira on 15/06/2015 - 22:01

        but in the cart you can't verify if the code works, you have to proceed to checkout. Isn't it the same as buying?

        • Logical on 15/06/2015 - 22:04
          +8

          in checkout mode (after adding to cart) you can still opt out of 'buying' it…. whereas 'buy it now' results in an immediate purchase :-)

        • bamzero on 15/06/2015 - 22:12
          +1

          Yeah, by adding to cart, until you've actually paid for it you haven't committed to purchasing it.

    It doesn't expire until 9am tomorrow, midnight UK time. I confirmed this on UK sites. It's likely just been swamped and hopefully will be back up.

    • bamzero on 15/06/2015 - 21:54

      Probably only supposed to work on ebay.co.uk but they've just realised its working on all ebay sites.

        Thank you for staying connected. We are aware that there was an issue with the voucher that prevented it from being applied and we are currently investigating this. We will be looking into a way to ensure that members like you still get the benefit from the voucher. For the meantime, you can make payment in full and we will reimburse your PayPal account with the discount amount for the completed transactions. Please note that it will take up to 14 days to see this reimbursement in your PayPal account.

        This is what they got told by the customer service people

        • morphio on 15/06/2015 - 22:23
          +2

          How will they defer people whom have the code and those who don't? They're not going to credit everyone who buys something in the next 8 hours.

        • jjsnacks on 15/06/2015 - 22:24

          I think some people had the code entered but still got charged full price

          It says "members like you". I reckon they might check your location, since it was technically meant for UK only. Just my 2c.

        • naira on 15/06/2015 - 22:25

        • linkii on 15/06/2015 - 22:27

          @morphio: They just give the discount to those who ask for it on paypal? All you have to do is take a screenshot of the cust service msg. Doubt we would get it anyway since we are in Aust.

        • Logical on 16/06/2015 - 09:09

          just curious, what's the 4th axis? if we have X, Y and Z… what else is there? the 4th dimension?

        • SBOB on 16/06/2015 - 09:47

          @Logical:

          I'm hoping its time, but likely its something more like pitch or angle

        • bleugh on 16/06/2015 - 09:50

          @Logical:

          4th axis is a rotary 'lathe' attachment,

          it clamps to the work area so you can use the up/down mill action to mill on a rotating piece of material, like a lathe.
          where it really becomes useful is to create tapered edges on things much quicker than 'stepping' up / down repeatedly crfeating 100's of micro steps . just simply rotate the work sideways a bit and 'mill' a straight edge

          all theory right now mind, have never used a mill before, only a paper cutter :-P

        • Logical on 16/06/2015 - 14:26

    Well saw this deal and figured there was nothing I really needed to buy. Then realise once it expired I could have gotten a nice new SSD :-( Oh well.

    Also to note, this is exactly how the eBay specials should work, none of this '20% off in a week's time' and then all the sellers put their prices up by that much to match it. Then again, that would mean it'd actually cost eBay some money…

    Good old typical Ozbargainer on ebay uk facebook ensuring that if they get the code working again, Australia will be excluded.

    He should go all the way and do a TA and actually call them up like the toilet paper deal, to ensure no one else can use the code.

    Looks like the CTWENTY code was only meant for the UK eBay site - but it worked worldwide. I got stuff with it here on eBay Australia. it worked in the US too. I'd say this was unintended and expired far faster than it was meant to
