Note - this is very early in the morning (2-5am)! Please decide for yourself whether this is worth losing sleep over!

Also bear in mind that PayPal might find a way to stop this after the last eBay UK sale.

Another risk to keep in mind - some users had their ebay accounts suspended as a result of purchasing gift cards through ebay UK. If you are concerned about this than I suggest you don't attempt to purchase through this sale.

eBay Spain are running a 10% off sitewide sale between 2-5am AEST on Friday 28/6.

You will need a Spanish eBay account and possibly a web browser that can translate Spanish e.g. Chrome.

Based on previous sales here, hereand here, you should be able to purchase PayPal gift cards such as eBay and WISH. I've personally been able to purchase gift cards twice through eBay Spain.

No Minimum spend.
Maximum discount 50 € (~A$81.36).
Redeemable once.

Should work for all PayPal digital gift cards though haven't tested them all.

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 Spain.

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

How it works -

Option 1:
Find what you want on eBay.com.au then change the URL at the start to eBay.es 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 Spain to take advantage of this offer.

Add random Spanish 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 Spain without creating new email id.

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

You will receive email on your original email id

Common errors -

You haven't changed the store to eBay Spain;
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.
Remember to change your app setting back to Australia once you've completed your purchase!

Mod: Deal wasn't able to be redeemed in Australia this time. Moved to forums.

          …and you don’t know gift cards will be available. Didn’t the PayPal gift cards go on holidays last time?.

          EDIT: Yes on your UK deal
          https://www.ozbargain.com.au/node/463688

          You probably should adjust your title & description to reflect it’s only a possibility not that they will be available.

          • Ulysses31 on 27/06/2019 - 09:59

            @[Deactivated]: I wish eBay would realise its 2019, and use one of their million algorithms to simply accept/deny at time of purchase. Avoid the nightmare for all.

          • Taegukgi on 27/06/2019 - 10:57

            @[Deactivated]: The Paypal rep here as PM'd me to advise that the issues around the refunds during the ebay UK deal have been rectified and that the same issues will not occur if the Spanish deal works.

            • [Deactivated] on 27/06/2019 - 12:13

              @Taegukgi: Oh I thought the issue was that the gift cards were taken offline during the 10% sale, so you couldn’t buy them. Which was my point, or has the Paypal rep confirmed they’ll be available? In which case, I’m wrong.

              • Taegukgi on 27/06/2019 - 12:22

                @[Deactivated]: Here is the advice they've provided -

                We'll definitely be prepped for the upcoming eBay Spain sitewide (if our gift cards are included), so no need to worry.

    Be careful guys. In the previous ebay UK deal I made an account using the dummy email method, and that account was suspended an hour later after I was trying to purchase gift cards. The next day my ebay Australia account with the same email address, minus the +ebay1, was suspended also

    No mention of numerous refunds to the lucky ones from UK round .

    Unlucky ones enjoyed PayPal and Ebay suspensions.

    I’ll take a educated guess they are reporting :)

    Only for persons who don’t give a # about their ac’s .

  • Maxxjet on 27/06/2019 - 13:14

    Thanks op, a bargain is a bargain … I don't see any issue of doing this.. you paid using your own money for whatever they charge you. It is not difficult for eBay to restrict the purchase of AU gift card on foreign website while they still choose to keep them for good reasons I guess. Just don't overdo it in the sense that may trigger their fraud detection mechanism like buying 10-15 cards in a short space of time. But that is more a fraud prevention matter.

  • witsa on 27/06/2019 - 13:20

    for anyone going through all this effort to sign up a new account, waking up in the middle of the night to save, how much are they buying?

    Even if you'd bought a thousand dollars worth, you'd save $100 - and $50 of that, you'd save if you just purchased the cards through cashrewards.

    • [Deactivated] on 27/06/2019 - 15:31

      Can you buy eBay gift cards through Cashrewards? I don't think so, so 10% saving plus when eBay runs 10% off on items = 20%. It's definitely worth it and adds up over time it on larger items.

      I'm up at 2am anyways, so it's not like I'm losing sleep personally.

    Hi all,
    I've reworded the title because I don't want people to send me hate if it doesn't work at 2am in the morning.

    There are varying experiences when it comes to these deals. Many people received their eBay gift cards within minutes from the eBay UK deal, some had money refunded whilst others had their eBay accounts cancelled.

    I can't tell which of these will apply to you. I am just making this deal available cause it has worked in the past.

    I won't be testing this tonight as I don't need any more gift cards.

    Hope you all understand.

    Appreciate you posting this deal. Too early for me this time but will certainly be looking out for more like these as I need more gift cards. Already used up the ones I got from the UK deal :-)

    perhaps you should suggest people to create completely discreet dummy Gmail accounts rather than using the trick that you mentioned. That way, it would be harder for eBay to cancel/suspend their regular AU accounts. My regular eBay AU is in a completely different email address to the Gmail address I use for eBay UK/ES/US. Also suggest they always use incognito mode when doing this. I've not had a problem yet taking advantage of these offers.
