  • Is there any way of using the code across different currencies / sellers from different countries?

    • Not that i've ever found. only way that works is 2 seperate accounts, one to buy in AUD and the other to buy in other currency

    Two items I was watching mysteriously went up 20% overnight, such a farce eBay has become

    • +12

      Sitewide price jacking?

    • +1

      Sir Jack is back!

    • +6

      It's usually much more rare for sellers to price jack on site wide deals.

    • Same here!

    • +4

      And you somehow assume it's related! Truly unbelievable that you can come to that conclusion based on two items out of millions for a sale the seller probably wasn't aware of and doesn't cost them anything.

    • The item I was watching went up by $133 - for a maximum $50 discount!
      What a crock!

  • +40

    Max Discount $50

    All time low!

    • +7

      So min spend $150, max spend $500

      Maybe they're saving the savings for another day.

    • +11

      And the min spend is at an all time high.

    • +4

      Yep it finally happened where the minimum spend is way more than the discount can be. Death of eBay is here!

      • Min spend $150 max spend $500 (10% discount of $500 is $50 max discount). If a discount is not good enough can we report ebay to accc)

  • +21

    I think Ebay have been reading out comments. Increasing min spend and decreasing max discount.

    • +18

      And removing car parts & accessories. Thats what i seem to spend most on !!

      • +2

        I am still waiting for them to include car parts, doesn't look like it will happen any time soon

        • +2

          It probably won't happen again; they'd have looked at all of the big discounts (where they lose the most money) and the data would have shown car parts to be a big loss.

          I got coilovers for my A4 for like $1150 and elsewhere for the same brand was $1300ish+

          • +1

            @Matt86: Yeah I'm just glad I got most of my 4WD gear before they stopped car parts discounts. I've still got like $800 in eBay gift cards left to spend. Once I'm through that I'm moving on from eBay for good.

  • +21

    Min spend keep going up $150! Wow

    It's creeping up

    Damn I wanted to save $50 off a boat

    Soon to be $200 min spend, $20 max discount.

    • the sweet spot?

    Looks like eBay are off with the fairies.

    • with that high min spend, tell ebay to keep dreaming then…

  • +2

    Was 110 dollars to get 10% off. Now 150. I guess next time will be 200 dollars min to get 10% off. Come on ebay this is useless

    What a shame OPs have to specify in advance that [insert deal] is not for everyone…

  • +7

    RIP eBay

      I can't wait until Amazon arrive. They'll keep ebay honest!

    Max discount obtainable by spending around $333.

    • +2

      Wouldn't it be $500?

      • Not sure why I read 15% instead of 10%.

        Yes, you're right, $500.

        • Wishful thinking

  • +2

    Max discount 50? Pffft, pissweak from EBay.

  • +11

    Whoever is in charge of marketing needs to be fired. What is this shit?

    • +15

      Think of it as encouragement to save money, by not buying anything 😀

    • +2

      this is ebay !
      remember fees used to be 3-5 %
      then they introduced paypal, and forced people to use it,
      then charged people an extra 2% or whatever it is to accept p/p

      this sort of behaviour is nothing surprisng

  • +1

    Great, one day minimum spend will be $1000 with .001% discount. Good on you EBay.

    • And with a Cashback of .00001%

      • +13

        already 0% cashback

        • That's just a rounding error

    no gift cards?

    • Gift Cards (184609),

      Listed above in excluded items.

    • we need giftcards please !

  • 44mm Series 4 Apple Watch for $599, done.

    • Have you got a link? I only found them at $700+

      It just isn't. Amazon customer service is miles ahead of anything.

      Amazon prime rocks.

      • +1

        Prices on Amazon are a lot more than eBay for the majority of the items I shop for. Of course you'd expect more service for greater prices.

    • I've bought lots of things on Amazon that i couldn't get on Ebay and Amazon WAY better to deal with.

      I agree though - general stuff on Amazon is TOO expensive and not worth wasting my time on. The work-around - sending the USA friends and getting them to deliver - is still cheaper.

    Don't use eBay, problem solved!

    • his wife will be in charge of that sale

    I have never seen so much complaining before….Ebay don't HAVE to discount you know….

    Ebay is one of the cheapest places to get stuff anyway, then they give you 10% off for nothing….I for one appreciate it!

    • +3

      one of the cheapest places

      It's also one of the most expensive places, depending on what you buy. Sometimes a proper 10, 15% coupon may just make it cheap enough.

        Seriously, -4 votes for saying you appreciate the discount…this place is full of trolls at times..

        • ikr. Glad I'm not the only one rolling my eyes.

        • -1

          "this place is full of trolls at times"

          Only at times? I +1 your comments, but it only came back to -4. Truth is not always popular…

    • +1

      Why the hell are you acting like eBay is a person that has feelings to hurt and that you feel gratitude towards because they did you a solid?

      This is a private corporation that only gives a shit about obtaining your money and it's currently taking away value as most of the commenters appear to realise.

  • +6

    I wouldn’t be surprised to see a 10% off, minimum spend $500, maximum discount $40 code.

  • +1

    I would be more inclined to impulsively add things to my cart if it was 15% off for $150 min spend.

  • +2

    I came in just to see people ridiculing the minimum spend and maximum discount, lol

  • +2

    10% off? Kudos to eBay for the discount, always comes in handy.

  • time to AMAZON! which I'm doing more and more in the past year. RIP eBay!

      Thank you for showing your dissapointment with an upvote..

    How many accounts do we need for this deal… Is 16 enough… or

  • ZzZzZzZ

  • Accidentally slept on the eBay Plus 15% off deal .. guess this'll have to do instead. $50 off is still $50 off.

    • May as well just wait for one of the many 15% off sitewide sales that overseas countries recieve.

    I haven't bought anything from eBay since mid last year. These days I find the price I pay at a local brick and mortar shop are generally within 0-5% compared to eBay with shipping.

    What I found is sellers on eBay have more or less permanently jacked up their prices by 5-10% due to eBay having constant so-called 10% off site wide. There is quite a bit of work involved in constantly altering pricing to suit eBay's vouchers therefore a lot of sellers don't default their prices back to normal after a sale, on purpose or just conveniently forgotten to

    The only benefit of eBay these days is for the convenience of getting things delivered if you live far away from a brick and mortar shop

    • +1

      There's no sitewide pricejacking, although specific sellers (futu) do it IMHO. But prices should be 5-10% more than bricks and mortar or the store's website to cover ebay and paypal fees. And eBay's unwritten policy to align with the buyer (despite arguably allowing theft and fraud). That'd teach ebay a lesson if all sellers passed on the costs..

      Being a seller on ebay sucks.

    Increased Min, decreased Cap, no deals for paid Plus members.
    Still, more than 100 upvotes?
    Some of ozbargainers start to get used to crap eBay deals now.

      • +6

        Obviously, this is NOT against OP.
        Look at the replies. Everyone complains but none of them downvotes. Maybe they are also afraid of someone making the discussion personal rather than stick to the fact.

        • +1

          Maybe they aren't downvoting because they understand the voting guidelines and/or despite their whinging realise that 10% off a $150 spend is better than 0% off a $150 spend.

            @Tafe: Lol @ the neg-fest. Always the comment-heavy, no/low deal-posting members which are the biggest sooks.

            • @Tafe: Personal attack?

              • @RimofLeo: Not sure - perhaps you could discuss with a moderator and ask to have me put in the sin-bin?

                I'd consider it more of a general observation but up to you!

            • +2

              @Tafe: No need for the personal attacks, any member is free to express their opinion without you jumping on their back.
              And as for the "neg-fest" - at the time of this post, this deal has 187/12 positive/negative votes so I think you are distorting the facts to suit your position just a little.

              • +2

                @Dontreadthis: To clarify, I was referring to the negs on my own post (0/7).

                And I've just read through a bunch of your previous contributions to other threads and I can see that you fall firmly into the category of member I was referring to. Very slow to contribute, very quick to criticise.

                All members are free to express an opinion, and my opinion is that sort of attitude makes this site worse, not better.

                • @Tafe: Are you paid to defend ebay, or do you do it for free?

                  • +4

                    @thearbiter117: The delicate, salty tears of entitled bargain hunters is payment enough for me…

      Agreed. How is this getting so many upvotes whilst the comments are flooded with disappointment?
      I don't see any evidence of a deal, just dodgy marketing.

      • +2

        It wouldn't be surprising that there are multiple accounts created solely for upvoting eBay deals. Considering how easy it is to create an account on Ozb

        I was about to buy a $300 laptop. Now i bought it for $270.

        How is that not a deal?

        • My comment was posted several days ago when the comments were littered with negative resentment yet the deal was heavily upvoted. Can you explain that? At that time, your example didn't exist. Confusingly, people's comments were against ebay yet still gave an upvote.
          In relation to the laptop, is that a hypothetical example? Or a real deal which you should post? I ask for the distinction because my hypothetical answer would be different.

    • +3

      This. It's getting to be an unobtainable deal.

      If only people negged then it'd put pressure on ebay to reverse this ugly trend in their marketing.

      • +1

        Maybe ebay employees trying to reach the target sales.

    Min Spend kills the deal
