Got an email from ebay on an account that I made to get the free $10 credit but never arrived. I think the accounts that signed up for it should receive the discount, only downfall is $50 max discount. Screenshot - https://imgur.com/a/Gx01b

EDIT: Looks like the offer may still be running so check inboxes on new ebay accounts!

      Hmmm… So this is only for people who never shopped on Ebay before …. I wonder if there are any such people on Ozbargain ? Yet, almost 90 upvotes. Interesting.

          Yes, but what good it is, if its not usable by majority ? A good deal is even better if majority is able to benefit from it, not just a few selected.

          @YogaPants: It's expected of majority of deals, that everyone can use/benefit from them, if not all. And majority of deals here benefit masses. Some deals are for a few selected people like this one.

          Yeah, that's what I was thinking …. But then how do you get the voucher code ? Its not an open code that anyone can use. Ebay already sent the codes to a few selected people.

        • ozzpete on 31/12/2017 - 23:35

          Is it easy to create new (working) accounts ?
          I would have thought they would have upped their security these days, I think paypal is really hard to make multiple accounts now, and I thought a new ebay account would require a linked and verified paypal account also for each 5 new ebay accounts .

      It was supposed to run till 23:59 yesterday (according to Casrewards) but ended much much earlier. Not sure, may be even one day earlier. It stuffed me up. I had something in my shopping cart and went to pay for it, but when I wanted to do so yesterday at about 1 pm, the code was no longer valid.

        You are allowed to have more than one ebay account right?

        • AussieDaddy on 31/12/2017 - 22:10

          Don't really know. I had one eBay account many years ago, but wasn't a crazy online shopper back then so I haven't used it for ages and even forgot the password. Created my current one back in 2015, so I always assumed you can only use one account each for the same email account. Will create another eBay account for these targeted offers and hope for the best.

      • askbargain on 31/12/2017 - 21:35
        +6

        The number of deals a user posts doesn't negate their opinion. The number of people getting the deal is 1 because it is just for you. The people upvoting are those who want the 20% discount not because they got it.

        Also fix your title, it is for first purchase as it says in the email title.

        • toblerone21 on 31/12/2017 - 21:38

          why the chip on your shoulder mate? I didn't ask for people to up vote the deal blindly? Also the reason I don't like people posting things like 'shit deal' is that it is not constructive at all, especially from someone with 0 posted deals, happy new year

          And who said is wasn't a deal? other people have surely been targeted too (considering the up votes) and it seems those who haven't been targeted are getting really angry about. The whole point in me posting the deal was to make people aware that they may receive this as a targeted email, cheers

        • askbargain on 31/12/2017 - 21:50

          @toblerone21: No one confirmed they were targeted. Number of upvotes simply means they think it is a good deal, but this deal is invalid since it is only for you.
