EBAY 15% off query

Hi

When EBAY has 15% off everything I decided to buy 2 x sun lounges that were $370 each I'd had my eye on for ages. When I tried to check out it would not allow me to as you had to get a freight price. I had already been in communication with the seller who had told me I could pick up free. Through the check out process there was no pick up.

  • when I tried to go through the freight option anyway it would say you must have 2 items to get a freight price.
  • when I tried to select 2 items I couldn't as every product said 'last one' basically locking you out from purchasing.
    • at this point the seller stopped responding so I messaged EBAY direct.
  • eBay said contact seller by phone. They have 100% satisfaction.
  • I called owner who pretty much led me to believe he would price match & buy direct from him, that EBAY WAS a shop front. He was supposed to get back to me with colours. Never did.
  • I called today & he said no cant do 15% & that eBay would never sell his stuff 15% off.

Am I missing something?

    Yes. You missed out on eBay's 15% off sale on everything.

    • Also missing your better judgement - $700 for a pair of sunlounges?

      thats a lot of eneloops and beard oil!

      go to gumtree and i bet youd save $400.

    my advice.. from what I can see is that you havent bought it yet and been charged, is if the seller is not offering you 15% off direct, just let it go.
    You can point out to him that paypal/ebay would likely take about 12% of the fees anyway if it went through ebay so he is not giving up much more to get a guaranteed sale. If he doesnt play ball, move along

    It's ebay that's paying for your 15% discount, not the seller,so I doubt he would give you the ebay discounted price
