    Where is that 1$ deal ?

      Same here. My work colleague got targeted for the $1 ebay plus membership and now I refuse to pay anymore than he did. I get my ebay stuff through him

        Same I'm not paying $29

        EBay plus only worth $1 in my eyes

        • azngamer on 28/11/2019 - 11:33
          +1

          I would pay $29 for it since I get an okay amount and should benefit from it over the course of a year from the free shipping. But the fact that someone got it significantly cheaper just makes me not fork out the money, haha

        • ePayn on 30/11/2019 - 16:39

          They should pay us $49 to join. I never seen anything decent to get during the free trial

          • banana365 on 03/01/2020 - 10:49

            @ePayn: So if you never buy anything from ebay, what made you think it would be worth it?

              @banana365: Where does he say he doesn't buy anything from ebay?

              I buy lots of stuff from ebay… but very few plus items.

            @capslock janitor: ebay's so expensive. GST ruined the whole website

            • odysseus on 03/01/2020 - 12:41

              @[Deactivated]: Especially with the Global shipping extra markup (more than the GST cost).

        You get a voucher that is technically worth $1 more than the eBay Plus membership fee. However, the voucher is restricted.

        No, you did not get paid $1 to join. You paid $49 for the membership + an feeBay item that's priced at $50.

        • jv on 28/11/2019 - 14:58
          +1

          However, the voucher is restricted.

          I had not problem buying the stuff I was going to get anyway…

          So I got paid $1 to join.

          Not only that, but I saved on shipping on those items because I was now on ebay plus… Some I'm around $11 ahead so far.

    • Ash20 on 03/01/2020 - 13:34

      I missed the $1 promotion. Not gonna pay $29. I don't think it's worth it. If needed I can use friend's plus account ;)

    Has anyone actually purchased Plus and benefited from it in the long run?

    • Lucille Bluth on 28/11/2019 - 11:22

      Once with eneloops. Personally I don't think it's worth most of my shopping has been with Amazon of late

    • Sir Flabo on 28/11/2019 - 11:23
      +1

      Yeah, I've easily saved over $100 in shipping and more with the ability to return things for free - E.g. I bought 2007 car mats for my 2006 car knowing they might not fit but did anyway knowing I could return for free :) (they did fit - win)

    • sparkles on 28/11/2019 - 11:29

      I've saved a bit when buying Pop Vinyls on eBay because I was also using the odd $10 voucher earned via Flybuys. But my eBay Plus expired and I haven't renewed. It's only worth it with a sign up deal.

    • yaaNaa on 28/11/2019 - 12:43

      Coles had a $49 discount for all plus members with spending over 99$ a whole back. Free returns worked well for me in few cases.

    • [Deactivated] on 28/11/2019 - 12:49

      I am on eBay Plus now but I haven't had any benefit from it. Obviously different for others who may have got some good value out of it.
      I'm not renewing at the end of this period. Think I'll give Amazon a crack instead for a year.

    • SirFlibbled on 28/11/2019 - 13:58

      Not really in the first year. But I've noticed recently sellers have finally started charging postage but you get free postage with Ebay Plus which is how it SHOULD be.

    • raybies on 28/11/2019 - 17:37

      No, but their UI prevented my from cancelling the crap service, and then they refused to cancel it and kept my $48.99 and PayPal said tough sh!t.

    • tugman on 03/01/2020 - 11:13

      Few of the purchases I have made which I am glad to have eBay Plus for.

    • [Deactivated] on 03/01/2020 - 12:39

      I got my first year for $29, got 2 'guaranteed' deliveries that failed to deliver on time and got $10 credit each, and probably bought 2 SD card and 2 SSD 'deals' where there was free shipping for eBay Plus. On aggregate after all said an done I probably broke even.

      Haven't bothered since, it doesn't look like I'd ever be ahead on it. Amusingly it makes me buy LESS from eBay. With 'free' shipping things are occasionally a couple of dollars cheaper but with the shipping it's like $10 more, so I find myself just not even bothering to look at eBay and just shop elsewhere.

      Still I guess not a stupid as Kogan's sub service. I guess they saw eBay's 'that looks like terrible value really' and said 'challenge accepted'.

    • Trioboy on 04/01/2020 - 10:32

      I only bought a pair of Timberland boots. And the price wasn't the cheapest. Not many members only offers. Probably not worth to renew the membership.

  • doweyy on 28/11/2019 - 11:13

    Probably better opting for the $30 Gift Card with renewal, effectively making it $19.

    • guo-au on 28/11/2019 - 13:10
      +2

      I did but only received $20. This is eBay's response… I think this should be referred to ACCC.

      Thank you for contacting eBay about the $30.00 gift card offer you took.
      We're sorry for the inconvenience this has caused. The gift card is only for $20.00 and not $30.00, again we're sorry. We can offer you an eBay voucher of $20.00, which is good for a month and you can use it for 10 items, but it can only be used in one go.

      Folllow up:
      Thank you for getting back to us about this.
      The way the gift card was made is that the difference is given at a later date. It could take days or a couple of weeks before our member receives it.
      The reason behind the $20.00 voucher offer we're doing is to provide an alternative option for our members since we understand that they were expecting $30.00 gift card upon accepting the offer.
      We're sorry this was not properly advertised in the ad, but we're looking for ways to make our eBay plus members happy with the service we're giving therefore we're offering the $20.00.

        eBay have become criminal to both shoppers and sellers.

      • KLF23 on 28/11/2019 - 17:41

        I got a similar response. They claimed it was a mistake to advertise to me that I would get the cashback.

        The last email I got from eBay said
        "this promotion of $30 is flawed and most members who are ineligible receives the notification."

        Seems dodgy.

    The most annoying thing on eBay Plus is that they keep asking you to subscribe even when you are logged in and already a Plus member. The "join now" ads shouldn't be showing up if I am a Plus member already (even if that's a trial).

    I signed up when it first came out. Savings on delivery weren't great, but I got my money back when having to send a faulty item back. Something that's not always obvious. I'm happy to pay Prime membership because there are multiple benefits compared to the lame EB+ membership, but for $29 compared to $49, I might reconsider. Thanks O.P.

        I simply clicked the "take this offer" button in the targeted message in my ebay account and it directed me to the page with the promotional offer of 29 dollars for ebay plus. After I sign in through PayPal and confirmed, I was given a message saying that my $50 gift card would arrive in a few weeks. The ebay chat people said it should arrive in less than 19 business days so hoping for the best!

  • SamwiseM on 03/01/2020 - 12:43

    Amazon Prime is only $59/year where you can get amazon music, amazon prime video, 2-day shipping (not nationwide) and other benefits.

    Aside from a few deals here and there, I don't see why eBay Plus is better than amazon prime.

    I cant see ebay plus ever paying for itself as it has too many restrictions
