    pressed buy now.. pasted code. came up $10 postage clicked confirm sold out.
    now I might leave that screen up for 1pm see if it helps.

    have a real crap catchathon vibe :)

  • +2

    WTH is that shipping cost? Isn't supposed to be free shipping for plus member?

    • +1

      What rubbish. Aren't they going against their own policy lol

      • +1

        They're only policy is profit lol 😂😂😂

    • yeah i think this is ground for some sort of refund

      at the top of their page it says

      Free delivery & returns on millions of eBay Plus items

    • this is scam
      now if you refresh it again says "Free shipping" for ebay plus

    • Bit of a joke, but I'm not going to complain and lose the order. Maybe I'll ask after the items delivered.

      • +1

        I messaged their support, apparently their promotions team is looking into the issue as others have also complained and they will get back to me tomorrow.

        • thanks for the heads up. Post how you go!

  • +2

    Why are people complaining it is a scam? We all know there are more than 100 Ozbargainers ready to snap this deal. We know they are only putting 100 items each hour and we also know people have claimed they were able to secure it. It's about promptness and luck. Keep on trying guys, don't get demotivated.

    • I think some are pointing to the scam being the $10 postage added when it should be free.

    • +2

      the reason is cos the last big ebay plus 99c deal
      most people were able to buy something when the stock was like 100 to 300 items per product.

      this is 100 per hour, yet most are sold out within 6 seconds

      it feels like a scam for most of us

      If you read this thread..
      people who are watching it and know of this deal
      most have missed out except for a select few

      so it seems more like there is not actually 100 items, but maybe less than 5 each hour..
      it seems very suspicious..

    • Maybe because it is suppose to be 1 per account and maybe because it sold out in a few seconds?

  • The seller name is odd.

    Was changed on Thursday from 'slimsgroup' to 'titan_gear', their logo is very similar to eBay Plus' and only 1 feedback in the past 12 months. No other items for sale…

    Thoughts this is actually an eBay account?

    • Looks like they commandeered an old unused account with good feedback?

    • Probably eBay. The account looks suspicious.

      • A few negative feedbacks too, hmm

    Almost 5-6 mins late to the party, but success… damn!

    • Is that you? Is this for airpods?

      Airpods are gone in 2 seconds - as opposed to 6, which people say in comments.

  • +1

    I think the $10 shipping is a glitch. It now reverted to being an "eBay plus" item with free shipping. Best thing we could do (those of us that paid the extra $10) is send the seller messages about it. Hopefully, we'll get refunded the difference.

    • This is exactly what I'm going to do :) Either way really happy for the Airpods at $109 anyway.

    • I think they’re just going to jack the price again.

  • its now free shipping hahahahahaha Ebay playing us

  • Enter code again for free shipping

    • I entered the code and it worked out to be $109 from the last round FYI.

  • how to add to cart before 13:00?

    • you have to try for 2pm - click buy now and add the code during the 1pm run and keep hitting Confirm and Pay button at 1.59pm

      • +1

        Sold out in about 0.5seconds so can't even click buy now.
        How do you click buy now if it's not even an option?

  • Got it at12:00, $109

  • -4

    Any that got them for $99 or $109 care to send me a screenshot so I can claim price protection on my 28 degrees card :-). TIA

    • -2

      Sure I'll sell you the screenshot for $150

  • +1

    It is crap. how is it just sold out in 3 seconds? this Airpod deal is only for those who understand how eBay works and hack some of the steps.

    • How can it even be possible….I tried to refresh, add the code, press buy, and it definitely takes more than 3 sec!

      • +2

        Commented elsewhere but if you get to the payment page then even if the stock sells out you can stay on that page for the next hour with the code and address etc all pre-filled. All you need to do the next hour is hit pay, which takes less than 2 seconds.

        Hour 1: Sit on the product page (hopefully they don't change sellers) hitting refresh. When the page is available hit "Buy Now" (not add to cart which I think will be slower and add steps since it'll go to your cart next). Try and pay but chances are it's too late, but if you are on the buy page you're good to go. Add the code and make sure your address is ok

        Hour 2: Spam "buy" starting a min or two before the hour. If your internet connections ok then you should get through very quick

        Thats worked so far but the terms do allude to there being more than one seller so step 1 could come unstuck if they change which listing the promo is run from later in the day.

        • I assume then it will prompt for PayPal details?
          I tried using a CC, but the code doesn't work.

          • @[Deactivated]: I used credit card and the same process as Smigit and it worked perfectly. I managed to get one :)

          • @[Deactivated]: My eBay and PayPal are linked from way back when, so I don't get prompted for login to PayPal prior to purchase.

        • I did exactly this and managed to grab one at 12pm.

          Need to have everything pre-filled including the coupon code and payment details.

          • @teaserenn: I’ve got my eBay gift voucher which I got for 10% off loaded. Hope to get some even sweeter deals though I don’t need it at all.

        • you are amazing man! got one! the good thing is I forgot to close the checkout window on 12PM!

          • @Herre: tried that changed shipping back to free. no go :(

            • @davemc: try it again mate, remember to keep clicking 15 seconds before 2PM.

          • @Herre: Congrats!

        • +1

          I refreshed every second saw the buy now button but went to error page!

    • Literally my second time using eBay the way to get them in time is very simple. If you can refresh in time to add them to your cart lets say during batch 4, chances are they will be sold out when ordering. However if you keep the item in your cart and stay on the checkout page and enter your details, as it approaches 2pm etc just spam click purchase.

      • +1

        I tried that but got an error saying "the seller has changed some details".

        • Mine said the same thing however I continued to click and it still worked. Maybe I got lucky.

      • Have one in my cart with the 'go to checkout' greyed. Cant get back to the checkout page
        Should I stay and spam refresh then 'go to checkout' instead you think?

        • Try spamming refresh. See if you can at least get to the checkout page and if they run out of stock (it will say something like "seller doesn't have many left") stay on the check out page, enter your details and try the next wave.

          I went on the site time.is and when it hit 59 minutes I started to spam click.

  • Where is the AirPod link can’t find it?

  • They apparently also have 32Gb of storage too. Sweet!

    Someone must have bot to of purchased these airpods…

  • Tried purchasing on the second, out of stock.

    • Don't worry.

      Many of us are getting ready for the third attempt!!!

    Have a look at the time of purchase from the purchase log ... you can't possibly process in less than 5 sec if you are human, click the link, pasting the code, load the page and click purchase ..

      You can if you already have the checkout page ready and waiting with the code entered in.

    • Someone up there said it was available 5 seconds before 1200 so that may be the key/explanation why they were able to sort it out that quickly.

    • Best way is to add to cart/get to checkout on one wave and click purchase on the other.

    • +2

      Looks like the boys with the bot formula are getting just over 10 % .

      That new accounts of 0 feedback firing at them and getting them every round .

  • Just noticed that the listing is changed to free postage, but the listing in my cart still has $10 postage

    • +2

      They are trying to flush out buyers who already have it in their cart.

      • Remove and re-adding the code fixed it for me

      • +1

        It just updates.

  • Where's the link to iPod?

    • +1

      What iPod

      • lol

    • I'm selling 2 iPod's on eBay if you'd like the links? :)

      • share the link

  • I still have the listing page from 12pm open on the app. That should be the same listing page for 1pm?

  • Good luck fellas, see you on the other side of 1pm!

    Had them in my cart from the previous hour's attempt, so just smashed the 'confirm' button and BAM.

    • Mine says confirm and pay with a lock, how do you make it say only pay?

      • I had the same thing from the previous hour's attempt.

        You now have to wait until the next hour's lot, so keep that page up and at 1:59pm just start spamming the confrim and pay button. That is what i did.

  • +1

    Out of stock again at 12:59:99

  • COULD FINALLY SEE THE BUTTON TO BUY NOW! That and the message saying, "This item no longer exists."
