Happy New Year Ozbargain! Last deal from me for 2018.

Minimum spend A$36.08, maximum discount A$90.20.

Tested and working on gift cards -

All other items - find the item on eBay.com.au and change the .com.au to .co.uk.

10% off also applies for Officeworks, Target and Fantastic Furniture. Postage will need to be paid as there is no C&C option for eBay UK.

10% off for auto parts which are usually excluded from eBay AU sitewide sales.

Note - no GST is charged of the purchased item is from an Australian seller.

How it works -

Option 1:

Find what you want on eBay.com.au then change the URL at the start to eBay.co.uk for easy purchasing.

If above doesn't work then try this.

Option 2:

Considering what happened in the last deal, the country switch doesn't seem to work anymore, so you will most likely have to make a new account at eBay UK to take advantage of this offer.

Add random UK address and use AU mobile to confirm account via SMS then add AU address as preferred/Primary Delivery Addresss .

Tip : Use Dummy email by using existing email to register at eBay UK without creating new email id.

Your email: [email protected]
Dummy email : [email protected] ( just try any combination starts with +) This works with Gmail and Hotmail. Haven't tried with other email services so do check before you buy.

You will receive email on your original email id

If you get the error on checkout - "To buy a gift card, you need a US eBay and PayPal account." - make sure your primary address is set to your Australian one.

      Yes, I have heard this happening previously so it is a genuine risk that people are taking…

      • JD9151 on 31/12/2018 - 21:41

        In my past experience, eBay rarely try banning accounts used for buying. They're mainly looking out for people with extra selling accounts trying to avoid selling limits. You can basically have as many buying accounts as you want, it's just that if you sell with any accounts it might get picked up.

        If it's any worry, make a new account and complete the purchase with a new IP (i.e. through VPN or mobile data), a name variation and a different address in an incognito browser. Shouldn't have any problems and you can just use this account for these kinds of deals when they pop up.

        • leeroys_dad on 31/12/2018 - 21:44

          I guess so, would have to be a fresh credit card in case they link that way too. For some reason I thought new accounts needed ID verification but maybe that's selling only as well??

          • JD9151 on 31/12/2018 - 21:54
            +2

            @leeroys_dad: If you haven't sold on eBay before, go for your life in making new accounts no need to change any details. Ebay wouldn't have a "blacklist" on credit cards only Paypal but again this is just for selling. Ebay don't really have any ID verification until you are selling a large quantity of items. For this deal, you'll be fine and the fact you're making an account on a different eBay domain would mean eBay would be concerned less.

            @leeroys_dad: Biggest thing is to have seperate emails for each account, and ones you can actually access too

          had one of my two ebay uk accounts banned in august.

          then last month, my ebay us account got banned, followed by my 2nd ebay uk account a few days later. they even mentioned in the email their reason was because they believed those two accounts were linked.

          they can be a bit anal about multiple accounts when they want to be

          • JD9151 on 01/01/2019 - 11:33

            @tdw: Their system is really weird, I've got like 10 eBay accounts in AU that I always access regularly. As long as you take a few extra steps when signing up you'll usually be fine

    Quick question, what is difference between ebay gift card & paypal gift card. When use, where do you put the redemption code from the gift card in?

    • [Deactivated] on 31/12/2018 - 22:21

      eBay gift card (in the description) is the GC to be used in eBay Australia (ebay.com.au)

      paypal gift card (in the description) are the bunch of GCs sold by eBay seller paypal-digital-gifts
      which include eBay GC, officeworks, seeds, Uber, Myer etc…

    • Taegukgi on 31/12/2018 - 22:21

      The eBay gift card is just one of the gift cards sold by PayPal. I could say just PayPal but then not everyone will know that includes eBay, WISH etc.

      Promo code entered at checkout.

      • kizashi on 31/12/2018 - 22:24

        Thanks, so after I buy and go to redeem, do I put the redemption code…where?

        • xoom on 31/12/2018 - 22:57

          The same place you put the ebay discount codes. It recognises the code as a gift card.

    • ilikeit on 31/12/2018 - 22:28

      I guess an eBay GC can only work on eBay. However, a PayPal GC can be used on any site that accepts PP. PP currency conversions are atrocious though and I use my CC with no international transaction fee for superior rates.

  • Luckymaster on 31/12/2018 - 22:18

      So I will clarify as I finally got it to work, - the instructions are unclear
      In your ebay UK account:

      Registration address, email and phone number: = UK ADDRESS
      Your main postage address for purchases = AU ADDRESS
      Primary post from address: = AU ADDRESS

      This finally worked for me. Hope this gets you over the line. I did not confirm SMS phone number.

    Stupid questions, the gift card can be used multiple times right? (i.e $100 gift card can be used 4 times of $25)
    I saw from previous post that a voucher (not gift card) can only used once, the remaining will be forfeited

    • Taegukgi on 31/12/2018 - 22:25

      Yep. You can use 100 x $1 even.

    Not sure what I'm doing wrong. I created the UK account and used my parents address in the UK. I've set the primary delivery address to my AU one but kept the registered address as the UK one. I'm using my AU paypal account.

      • C0mbat on 31/12/2018 - 22:31

        Sorry, ignore the above. It's because I was on au.com instead of co.uk. However, I've ran in to a new problem. I logged in to Paypal but then it blanks it out as a payment option and defaults to credit card as well as blanking out the discount code section. It says:

        "We ran into a problem and PayPal isn't available right now. Please select a different payment option."

        Edit, I used a different AU paypal account and it worked so I'm not sure why the other one wasn't working because it even has credit in it that would have covered it.

    • Taegukgi on 31/12/2018 - 22:37

      No. You're buying an AU gift card.

        if the uk gift cards are 10% off, it may work?
        if we can buy uk gift cards with uk gift cards, we could make it really cheap after few times buying.

        did you purchase ebay uk gift card? or AU one?
        what I said was using ebay uk gift card to buy ebay uk stuff, but actually things in AU just change the website .com.au to .co.uk like how we purchase AU gift cards

        • LikezDaBargainz on 31/12/2018 - 22:47

          I purchased AU cards, on the UK site, if that helps. Can't buy on UK site with discount GC. But that's okay, just waiting for AU 10%+

        • MaXcon on 31/12/2018 - 22:54

          The AU gift card's initial activation has to be on eBay AU, once you have the gift card tied to your account (made a purchase) any remaining balance can then be used on any eBay site.
          You could use a gift card to make an initial purchase of $1 on eBay AU account, then have $99 to spend on any eBay site (assuming $100 gift card)
          You can only have one gift card balance tied to your account at any one time though, so any item value over the voucher amount would have to come from another means of payment, Paypal or CC etc

  • AirbusA389 on 31/12/2018 - 22:35

    I have been prompted: To buy a gift card, you need a US eBay and PayPal account.
