Not the greatest offer on earth, but the drought is finally over. Does NOT appear to be targeted, ignore the tag. Might be good for new members, I don't know, mod made it for renewal only, might have inside information.

I've been trying to renew my lapsed membership by clicking on "free trial" for ages and hoping an offer would appear.

I have not received any email, or any banner, but when I went to free trial it finally offered me $19 for a year.

Please give it a try and advise in the comments how you go.

    Targeted, shows 49$ for me.

      What's your scenario? New sign up, current renewal, lapsed renewal etc?

      • dollarandcents on 22/01/2025 - 17:27

        Lapsed in 2021 I think, its been a while.

    • jv on 22/01/2025 - 16:58

      shows 49$ for me.

      Mine shows $49.

      Are you using a VPN ???

      Showed $49 for me but I clicked "sign up" and was presented with $19. Also cancelled last November.

        Looking at all the other comments this seems to be user error, this does not seem to be targeted. Not sure how to remove that tag (not added by me).

      • Tiggrrrrr on 22/01/2025 - 19:48
        +1

        Same with mine. Says $49, but when you click to renew says $19.

    • G-rig on 22/01/2025 - 20:29

      Agreed, definitely targeted. Otherwise where is the proper link.

    Worked for me on 2 accounts that I cancelled last November.

    Now just need some FVF free listings for the icing on the cake.

  • CodeXD on 22/01/2025 - 16:46

    Checked my ebay account with lapsed renewal and sure enough I've got it too!

  • grizz_li on 22/01/2025 - 16:48

    Got this deal as well.
    Cancelled last November.

  • yanivsr on 22/01/2025 - 16:49

    Worked for me as well! $19 a year, thanks OP :)

  • Pace210 on 22/01/2025 - 16:53

    I'm holding off until the fee has a voucher for the same amount, this is not helping

      Your OZB spirit is strong.

    • MS Paint on 22/01/2025 - 17:07

      But there would be 16 gazillion conditions associated with that voucher. Not worth the wait just to be disappointed.

    • G-rig on 22/01/2025 - 20:30

      $49/$50 voucher days.

    • Water Bearer on 22/01/2025 - 20:44

      You're right. Pointless signing up for a year unless they have a big voucher. Membership isnt worth anything! $5 vouchers dont stack and keep going higher for minimum spend. Deals are basically non existent. When they are decent, the item you want is not eligible lol. People are better off signing up for $5 for one month just to get the deal they want then cancelling…

  • SydBoy on 22/01/2025 - 16:54

    eBay has changed a lot.. no longer good deals that we used to get and that may be because now they need to pay commission to shopback or cash rewards !

    • denserham on 22/01/2025 - 18:15

      Enshitification

    • grasstown on 22/01/2025 - 18:41

      Must be shopback, because I don’t think cash awards has any. And I’ve been tempted to join shop back because of eBay but just can’t be bothered.

    Thank OP I had $30 voucher offer but the payment failed and offer disappeared

    • poxy001 on 22/01/2025 - 18:13

      Oh i just got the offer when i tried to cancel. Does that mean they will stiff me?

      • y2k on 22/01/2025 - 18:52

        Screen shot it, and take it up with customer service?

  • itsmemunna on 22/01/2025 - 16:54

    Thanks OP. Worked for me. I cancelled auto renew 2 weeks ago and been holding off for a decent deal.

  • povertytrap on 22/01/2025 - 16:58

    Thanks OP. I think membership is barely worth $10 now though, especially if you are in WA.

  • Snoop on 22/01/2025 - 16:58

    Be VERY, VERY careful.
    We did this for the Mrs account last year, and using the link, it came up cheaper… right until payment where we copped the $49.

    • Reveen on 22/01/2025 - 17:00

      I can confirm only $19.00 was charged.

  • Sammyboy on 22/01/2025 - 16:58

    Thanks OP! Worked for me too :) I've been checking for a while and nothing

  • wingun on 22/01/2025 - 17:00

    It worked.. $19 for first year

  • DrPotato on 22/01/2025 - 17:02
    +22

    ebay+ like many other subscriptions has undergone extensive enshitification. No longer worth even $19 imo. $5 coupon minimum has been raised from $15 to $50 the past few years. Rare to see seller promos now too.

    • Paul B on 22/01/2025 - 17:10
      +2

      A few selling fees or postage discounts would be enough for $19, as long as they don't disappear completely.

    • Tiggrrrrr on 22/01/2025 - 19:51

      When I was still on plus there was $5 off $25 spend and $5 off $50?
      Is that no more?

  • Heybargain on 22/01/2025 - 17:03

    Worked for me as well. Thanks OP!
    Have also updated membership and cancelled so that it doesn't autorenew.

  • czechboi on 22/01/2025 - 17:05

    Thanks Op, lapsed in December and got this offer. Was waiting for a reduction.

  • Viospeed on 22/01/2025 - 17:12

    A couple years ago they were offering this for $10 with cashback from Shopback I think and also a $30 coupon voucher which I think worked on any listing.

  • SB128 on 22/01/2025 - 17:12
    +2

    So, it worked for me, and I thought I’d cancel straight away - so I wouldn’t forget to cancel in 12 months time, at this point they offered me a $30 voucher to stay…. so I didn’t cancel, but set a reminder to cancel in 2 months time.
    Hopefully this works :)

    • DingoBlue on 22/01/2025 - 17:14
      +1

      Can you check and confirm? Normally the voucher doesn't actually come until next renewal. Might be an awesome deal otherwise.

      • yangboihong on 22/01/2025 - 17:33

        Also got offered this. But "Stay & continue your membership beyond 21 January 2026 & receive a $30 voucher."

        • SB128 on 22/01/2025 - 17:34

          Yeah maybe that’s what it said… whoops.

      • SB128 on 22/01/2025 - 17:34

        Yeah ok, I didn’t read it too closely, but it said something like voucher applied 14 days after money taken… and something about 30 days.
        I wish I screen shotted it now.

      • Tiggrrrrr on 22/01/2025 - 19:55

        That's correct.
        However when my plus was up for renewal I couldn't locate the email for the $30 coupon.
        And when asked customer "service" they said they had no record.
        So just let it lapse.
        Have probably saved a lot of money since, as was just trying to find something to buy to use my $5 coupon each month.

        • bluedufflecoat on 22/01/2025 - 20:34

          They did this to me too felt scammed

  • Reviveme on 22/01/2025 - 17:13

    Thanks OP works for me

  • Caped Baldy on 22/01/2025 - 17:14

    ebay plus has lost a lot of value for me. I swear just before Christmas they got rid of the $5 off $30 spend completely, which used to be $15 spend.

    • Junk Sifter on 22/01/2025 - 18:16

      Indeed. For the record the monthly originally extra $5 off $15 on almost anything minimum increased to $35 early last year, got adjusted to $25 midyear, before it ended at the end of the year.

      I've been waiting for a new promo to replace it these few weeks; without it Plus is not worth anything to me, especially since eBay has not offered any FVF selling promos recently.

    • Payne on 22/01/2025 - 18:38

      Yep. Given the trend, I'd expect the $5 off $50 to change this year, as ordinary as it already is.

      There's just not a lot of value left in eBay Plus.

  • Thrifty123 on 22/01/2025 - 17:14

    I clicked on 30 day free trial and was presented with $19 for 12 months subscription.

  • SYLTB on 22/01/2025 - 17:20

    The day will come that they will offer $20 instant cash to sign up.

  • xaces on 22/01/2025 - 17:21

  • bigbadboogieman on 22/01/2025 - 17:29

    Good ol' days whey they were giving $80 vouchers in addition to the $5 monthly voucher to register for a year at $49.

  • PVS7 on 22/01/2025 - 17:31

    Thanks OP. Worked for me.

  • GerrardLFC on 22/01/2025 - 17:33

    If I cancel now will it last 1 year or cancel straight away.

    • sachz on 22/01/2025 - 17:52

      it should stay for 364 days

  • sfac on 22/01/2025 - 17:35
    +2

    It worked for me…and if you try to cancel it, it will offer a $30 voucher to stay beyond the next renewal date.

    • Reveen on 22/01/2025 - 18:07

      Thanks for the reminder.

  • trevor99 on 22/01/2025 - 17:39

    fyi definitely targeted because I have one account where it's $19 and one at $49
    The account where I've bought and sold a few things recently was $49. Not rewarding customers that's marketing for you.

    • Tiggrrrrr on 22/01/2025 - 19:57

      Mine said renewal was $49 (i.e. no offer). But when I click on renew it says $19.

    • brotherfranciz on 22/01/2025 - 20:01

      Not rewarding customers that's marketing for you.

      Not so sure about this. I've never been targeted and haven't been a Plus member in ~two years. Didn't get targeted this time either. Honestly, I would sign up at $19 even without the voucher, so no idea why eBay are neglecting people like me.

  • Xizor on 22/01/2025 - 17:52

    Worked for me. Finally.

    Does this actually have any benefits?

    • Pratty on 22/01/2025 - 17:59

      Free Express shipping on eBay plus items. That’s my main benefit. Discounts sporadic.

  • whtsthenews on 22/01/2025 - 17:58

    Thanks OP, signed up again

  • montorola on 22/01/2025 - 18:07

    Is eBay about to meet the same fate as our catch connect friends?

    • Tiggrrrrr on 22/01/2025 - 19:59

      Catch connect is unaffected.

      While it is affiliated with Catch.com.au, Catch Connect is owned and operated separately, meaning mobile users will not be impacted by the closure.

      “We will continue to offer great value products and exceptional customer service, as we always have,” a Catch Connect spokesperson said. “There will be no changes to your Catch Connect mobile services, and we will continue to operate as usual.”

  • butwhy on 22/01/2025 - 18:09

    Got the offer at $19 after cancelling a few weeks back.

    Not sure if it's worth $19

    Don't buy into it if they make it $1, I will think about it $19 still too dear

    That's not many deals under eBay Plus anymore.

    The platform is dying. People don't even sell stuff on there. Nothing worthwhile

    All jumped bandwagon to Temu, Aliexpress, Facebook marketplace

    • Tiggrrrrr on 22/01/2025 - 20:00

      I personally hate marketplace. Temu and Aliexpress are just selling shit my cousins are trying to dump on the rest of the world.
      But each to their own I guess.

  • thirstyfordeals on 22/01/2025 - 18:16

    I don't feel any use of eBay plus as a buyer.
    I was good previous when they had monthly $5 coupon with minimum $15 spend. But later it was same $5 with $35 spend and now changed to $25 spend.
    There were few sale items which were tempting during eBay plus sale day else it's not a kind of deal for me.

    If anyone can share what benefits are you getting after eBay plus subscription?

  • salmon123 on 22/01/2025 - 18:16
    +1

    Keep in mind that Facebook and ebay annouced a new partnership a few weeks ago.

    Hopefully they have a collab similar to the gumtree deal where you got a few free listings. Perhaps they will target ebay plus users.

    • mboy on 22/01/2025 - 18:29

      Would be nice. I've got a backlog of things to sell, just waiting for another free listing deal.

      • pichxlonco on 22/01/2025 - 20:19

        Any advantage in selling stuff through eBay over marketplace or Gumtree?

    • neonlight on 22/01/2025 - 19:12

    Doesn't work for me. Price shown is $49. I think my eBay plus has lapsed last year in Oct.

  • xyron on 22/01/2025 - 18:37

    Thanks OP, I was lapsed as of November 2024, was not missing it at all, but at $19 I'll spin the wheel again.

    Immediately cancelled it too so they don't sting me for another $49 next January (they did try to offer me a $30 voucher if I didn't cancel, but the voucher would only be given to me after 21 January 2026! What a joke.)

    • TEER3X on 22/01/2025 - 20:08

      Well it's almost the same as paying $19 in 2026 for another year, since the regular price is $49.

      I'm not even sure eBay plus is worth $19 anymore tbh.

      • xyron on 22/01/2025 - 20:09

        not really, given eBay's terrible track record of actually delivering those $30 vouchers, and the arbitrary restrictions they place on them when they do. The promise of a $30 voucher in 12 months time is not worth $30 in cash!

  • nathanos on 22/01/2025 - 18:37

    Main reason I had eBay Plus was for the pretty good Black Friday deals. After last year and the complete lack of half decent Black Friday deals eBay offered, I won't be renewing - even at $19.

  • ninohax on 22/01/2025 - 18:42

    Aren't' you literally wasting money by subscribing to ebay plus? Ebay is dead AF
