        Cheers , i thought they were leaving us android users out as we would only spend $20 on generic ink set and apple users would get $3 discount on $999 monitor stand

      No worksite in iOS-based iPad Aid, saying:

      If someone walked up to you and gave you $3 for free, would you take it?

        Great logic . Spending close to $20 on Ebay for max discount of around 15 % ( $3) is a pain in th a$$ .

        Especially when flooded with 2 X 15 % off Ebay codes recently with believe or not much larger limits that most want .

        For this one much better value at Amazon :)

        • eug on 25/06/2019 - 11:48

          Great logic.

          It is. Because in either scenario, your net gain is $3.

          Spending close to $20 on Ebay for max discount of around 15 % ( $3) is a pain in th a$$ .

          Surely you don't look for things to buy just because there's a discount? You should be buying things that you need, not looking for things to buy just because there's a discount - if you want to maximize the value of these codes anyway. :)

          If you had a $20 item you were going to buy anyway, if you buy it now, you will get a 'free' $3, like my earlier scenario.

          This discount is clearly aimed at lower-value purchases which would never have been covered by all those 15% codes.

          If you were going to buy something more expensive that would be covered by those codes, then of course it'd be smarter to wait till another one of those codes comes along.

          But if you're buying a $20 item, $3 off is a 15% discount.

              Sometimes I do, sometimes I don't… if I don't, I usually wouldn't go and look for something to buy just because there's a code. It's not really a bargain if you buy something at a discount but never really use it. :)

          • profar on 25/06/2019 - 14:31

            @eug: Surely you don't look for things to buy just because there's a discount?

            Sounds like me and plenty of great price points around due to our monster friend mention above .

              Well.. retail therapy is a thing and I've definitely done it many times. But if I can't think of anything useful to buy that maximizes the discount ($3 off a $20 item is 15%), I don't go (profanity). :)

      • lostn on 25/06/2019 - 11:54

        If someone walked up to you and gave you $3 for free, would you take it?

        With no strings attached? Absolutely.

        If he said I had to buy $20 worth of his wares first, I'd walk away.

        • eug on 25/06/2019 - 12:00

          Right, it's no different to saying "hey man, I'll give you $18 for free - but you must buy $120 of my wares first".

          Did you buy anything with the 15% ebay codes?

          If you went to woolies to buy your groceries and the checkout says "press this button to get $3 off!", would you press it?

          Of course - it's a free $3 off what you were going to spend anyway.

          Likewise this discount code is perfect for people who already have a ~$20 item in mind to buy. As I mentioned earlier, $3 off $20 is 15%. None of the other 15% codes would have worked for a $20 purchase.

          • lostn on 25/06/2019 - 18:24

            @eug: I got no quarrel with your logic.

            I'm just saying, if a stranger came up to me and offered me free money as in your example, it would not be a direct analog to the current offer.

            People don't normally go around giving away free money on the streets. If anything, it's the reverse. They want you to give them money.

            • eug on 25/06/2019 - 18:29

              @lostn:

              I'm just saying, if a stranger came up to me and offered me free money as in your example, it would not be a direct analog to the current offer.

              Oh right, OK that's fair enough, I wasn't clear.

              I was actually responding to alz's "3 bux??? (profanity)" post from the viewpoint that alx is saying 3 bucks is very little money.

              But if someone were to give him $3 for free, he would probably take it. So it is actually worth something.

              I didn't actually mean to compare getting $3 for free to getting a $3 discount, at least not in that first post.

    • lyon on 25/06/2019 - 10:41

      Probably not worth if you are buying $500 item, but if you are buying a $21 item, it's worth it

      • Ipodisclassic on 25/06/2019 - 11:38

        $3 is $3. What’s the difference?

        • Targaryen on 25/06/2019 - 11:55
          +1

          Percentage in this instance.

          • eug on 25/06/2019 - 12:55
            +2

            @Targaryen: I get that it feels like it's less worth it, but $3 is still $3. If you were going to buy that $500 item anyway, you'll still end up with a bonus $3.

            That said, if you were buying a $500 item on eBay, you might as well wait for a discount code that's aimed at higher-value purchases like that. This code is meant for people who only want to buy a ~$20 item, not $500.

    "This code can't be applied to some of your items" for a 'vehicle parts and accessories' item.

      Just like excluding cars and real estate for a flat $3 off shows they do not think.

    I'm getting a "temporary buying restriction" message. I don't if it's from trying to use a gift card as well or something glitchy through Paypal. It's my first time using the app.

  • endotherm on 25/06/2019 - 15:20

    Such torture to gain a measly $3. Get up and move away from a perfectly good computer with large screen, find iPad. Battery discharged, find the charger and cable. Open cart. Too many items, so an unhelpful "an unknown error occurred" when I try to check out. Play the silly dance of removing multiple items until it's happy. Try to check out, only to be told the code only works on iPhone or Android app. Find Android phone. Battery discharged on that one too. Find charger and cable. Need to download eBay app. Rearrange cart again, because I didn't pay enough to exceed $20 before delivery/GST. Delivery I know is excluded, but GST? If I bought a local product, I'd be paying the GST included in the price, and that would be counted. Add another item. Check out FINALLY works.

    Did I mention all this to save $3?
