Note - eBay UK account required.
Ok, I know there is a post for 10% off gift cards through eBay UK but I thought this deal was too good to not make a separate post for.
Currently these gift cards are 15% off but stack on the 10% eBay UK discount and you'll get 23.5% off.
Note - minimum spend is £20 (A$35.05) so you'll need to buy $50 gift card.
Didn’t work for me either, tried $100 one.
works on all gift cards!
so, 23.5% off ebay gift cards too?
works for me on UK account
Sweet thanks op. Ebay UK account finally put to use!
hang on stopped working for me now, saying I need a US paypal account ?
Make sure your primary address is oz.
Thanks. It worked :)
Same for me.
"To buy a gift card, you need a US eBay and PayPal account."
cool thanks changed to AUS address and it all worked
Thanks OP, great timing as I have a tax bill to pay off.
Just opened a new ebay uk account ad it says I need to provide a uk address and phone number. Does that sound right ?
I just created and bought a card too.
Just put a random UK address first. And then change the primary delivery address to your AU address.
NW10 6EA
Strange memory to carry for 18 years.
Hmmm. I seem to have the following error message: "To buy a gift card, you need a US eBay and PayPal account."
Steps I took:
1. Went to ebay UK
2. Registered for a new account and entered in for my email address: [usual gmail][email protected]. EG [email protected] (assuming that my gmail account is normally [email protected]). Password was whatever
3. Went to the OPs link
4. Selected the $100 iTunes gift card
5. Clicked on "Buy it now"
6. Selected Paypal and linked it to my normal Paypal account (Australian)
6. At checkout I entered the code "PINCHME" and noted that the price of the $100 iTunes gift card (Discounted to $85) was FURTHER discounted another AU$8.50
BUT that is also where I saw the error message "To buy a gift card, you need a US eBay and PayPal account."
How did you guys manage to bypass this bit? The error message still appears when I flick it to my ING Visa card so I'm going to assume it is the US eBay requirement that is stopping me but not according to the OP's original post.
Put an australian address as your primary delivery address and it'll work
Thanks. Worked a treat. Forgot to mention that UK address between Steps 2 and 3.
How did you make it work? I enter my paypal account then it just greyed out. It only made credit card payment available. Do you need paypal account only to purchase it?
Very good price but I am so glad that I am not playing those stupid games anymore
Damn I just purchased $300 worth a few weeks ago at 20% off (Costco).
Should I buy some more?
Yes
Good just in time to pay my taxes. Hopefully ATO still accepts itunes giftcards.
That joke's so 27min ago
There's always one person who want to post this same old joke in every iTunes card deal.
same for google play cards :)
Have you tried to redeem on your australian google play account?
Thanks, $38 for $50 is pretty decent.
won;t let me enter Australian contact address when I register for ebay UK and try to buy this!!!
Enter in a UK one first but with your AU mobile and after you have registered your UK eBay account just go to your account settings and add a new Primary address which is your AU one.
Can you still use itunes to pay for netflix?
I think existing customer who pay using itunes can still do it, but new customer can no longer use itunes as method of payment.
Perfect timing. I can pay the ATO now.
Can we buy eBay gift cards at 10% and then use them to buy this? Am I missing something..$200 eBay card reduced to $180 with pinchme code
Can't use AU eBay card on .co.uk, so no.
Too lazy to make a UK account. Got the 15% off though, thanks OP.
So is this correct?
Any of this sellers listings.
Even the ones such as 10% off kogan cards.
Is another 10% on top of it?
So almost 20% off?
Thanks chibot, just bought a AUD $100 card, that will pay for my Netflix subscription even longer :)
Do we still need to use a no international fee card like 28 Degrees for these cards, given the order is charged in AUD?
No, you are charged in AUD at checkout.
Just created my only ebay uk account. Entered UK address as registration address. Entered primary delivery address as AU address. linked Paypal AU account. When applying PINCHME I am getting "This code can't be applied to your order". Does anybody knows what's happening?
Follow danielH instructions as above. After trying to make a purchase it will come up as an error then update address from UK to AUS - should work.
I'm getting the same thing… maybe they just closed off the loop hole. :(
EDITED - Sorry my bad… you need a UK registered address but an Australian primary address for the code to work (and for the gift cards to be allowed to be purchased)….
Getting the same
Great - got $200 just in time to top up my Netflix subscription.
How long does it usually take for the iTunes card to be emailed?
It's been over 7 hrs and still have not received codes..
same.
i wonder if this is because i also bought some eBay vouchers, prior (using PINCHME code)
Still nothing here either.
Do I just go on Google to find a random address located in the UK when I create my UK ebay account?
I put buckingham palace and it worked
Ill probably have james bond break down my door soon
The code didn't work, said that it couldn't be applied.
I managed to add 5x$100 google gc,
using a new UK account, added a UK address, made the primary address my Australian address, and the code still didn't work…
At checkout in on .co.uk, not sure if this matters but in assuming this is meant to be the case.
Any ideas?? Thanks in advance!
Thanks! I ended up just creating a new account and it worked
Thanks,
I got 5x$100 of iTunes AU cards. Came at the most perfect time for me.
Just a quick note.. Is it possible to change the registered ebay.com.au address to a UK address. Then use the 10% discount PINCHME code? I didn't try it because I already went with creating a ebay.co.uk account.
Best to have separate accounts.
Worked a treat!
Created my [email protected] UK account, added random UK registered address AU mobile and changed delivery address to Australian.
Then added code and checked out via PayPal.
$200 worth of iTunes for $153. BARGAIN!
How long does it take to receive the codes? Also has anyone verified that the codes work for AU Apple ID?
Closed now I think ? Get this error when trying "To buy a gift card, you need a US eBay and PayPal account."
Make sure you have an oz address as your primary.
Has anyone received their cards yet… In fact I don't think PayPal have processed my payment yet… But I've got confirmation from eBay though…
Nothing here - I ordered some ebay cards AFTER the iTunes ones and they arrived in a few minutes.
Sweet, now I can pay the ATO what I owe them, in a cheap way!
No problems buying the GC from uk site but it won't work for purchasing the 15% off iTunes cards for me on AU site unfortunately.
used "PINCHME", to get some Google Play vouchers,
and eBay & Paypal ave verified the purchades, but i stii did not receive them yet.
it's been 8+ hours now -_-
Still haven't gotten mine either.
Just got it.
Still haven’t gotten mine.
I did get an email from eBay confirming my purchase straight after I paid.
I got an Ebay email confirming my purchase too… but normally I would get a separate PayPal confirmation which I don't think I've received….
The money has come out of my Paypal and credit card and the seller is "PayPal Australia Pty Ltd".
still waiting on mine, ordered 9:30pm yesterday
earlier order for other GC's arrived without issue, so you arent alone
12 hours and still waiting here. In the past, they've always come through quickly. I hope that they're not going to bounce the purchases
Same here.. I thought i check here just to c ok confirm its not only me.
same here.
more than 16+ hours and still waiting for Google Play vouchers.
eBay order shows "CONFIRMED"
money is out of PayPal account.
( this is after using 'PINCHME' for eBay vouchers, earlier in the day )
just got my Google Play vouchers.
20+ hours later.
I have got an email saying This order wasn't successful. Order cost has not been included in the total amount.
I don't know what this means. I used my credit card.
I tried using paypal but it just greyed out after I logged in. Then, I can't re-select that as payment option again.
They (PayPal AU) temporarily limited my account and asked me to provide photo ID. And force a password change.
Then after they reactivated my paypal account. The refunded my purchases.
i don’t like paypal!
Are other people getting the same thing?
yea had to suffer the same fate
How do you find out that they've limited your PayPal?
Has anyone actually received their gift card codes?
Starting to worry now.
I'm thinking they realised they screwed up and are cancelling them one by one.
still waiting on google play card
I am also waiting since this morning.
I also got mine 20 mins ago - thanks OP !!
I received mine just now and I ordered last night around 10:56. Bought the $50 option
Edit: actually 5 minutes ago
Fingers crossed.. maybe they will still come through….I bought them around midnight last night
finally ;)
Itunes codes delivered and redeemed. Thanks OP.
Yep. All five iTunes codes just arrived. Approx 24 hour later.
Panic over LOL
I've received mine too.
received and redeemed - Netflix sorted until 2020 …
Received my codes 12 hours later.
Anyone still waiting for their codes?
People who have received their codes, did you delivery status update to “emailed” or does it stay “on it’s way”?
I received mine. Just make sure you remember which email account you used to sign up for your ebay UK account
But If you used a gmail one but added a +UK to it. Ie. [email protected] then all emails just get sent to [email protected]
Code doesn't work for me. 2 x $30 cards = $51.00
