There’s a 10% ebay bucks promotion today and tomorrow. No minimim.

I added a Spider-Man comic...won’t apply the 10%...comes up as 1% eBay bucks at checkout.

it’s not the price or category as I’ve tried another comic with this the same category and another lower price and they both came up as 10% eBay bucks at checkout.

Any clues what it might be? I thought the eligible items went by category and min price. Both are debunked in this case.

Did it specifically say use the app?

Also, sometimes if using app, you cant double dip with ebates / rakuten

@Bronte yeah, I’m aware of those “glitches.”

I am using the app and even if I used Ebates/Rakuten it should still come up as 6% eBay bucks (as that discout applies for the non-app purchases.

So get this...The thing about the item I’m considering is that it’s an auction with a “buy-it-now” option. Vice a “or best offer” option. You don’t see too many of these types of auctions anymore.

Anyway, I found another auction with a BIN (not OBO), added it to my cart and sure enough I’d only get 1% eBay bucks for that one too.

So it would seem that live auctions with BINs do not qualify for the ebay bucks promotion...which makes no sense and must be a glitch.

I encourage others who got the same promotion today to test out my theory ...add an auction with a BIN to your cart and see at checkout what % eBay bucks you would get from the purchase.

Assuming it’s a glitch in the software, how does one inform eBay of it?

Did you activate it.(not being a smart ass) It’s 10% if you use the app. (Phone ipad etc). You have to actually go through the app. 6% onsite (laptop or desktop or entering it through safari or windows) I also think it says you can’t transfer it to someone else.

Yes, because the 10% does show up for regular BIN auctions. The problem Seems to be with live auctions with BINs.

Somewhat off topic.

Do you find you get the offer often if you use it every time? Or do you skip times?

Interesting that you say that. I have gotten a lot of offers the past few weeks as opposed to the past few months...and I took advantage of a few...then boom another one today when another expired on the 30th.

I’ll keep an eye on this trend...

For a few months I got one almost every two weeks. Then it stopped. The other day, therecwas a 20 off 100 but it was hidden in the auction and you had to copy the code. Not something you could click. My dumb ass thought I could come back for it.

Poof gone

@Bronte

It usually (for me) shows up every 2 weeks except during the eBuck redemption period so to answer your question.... yes it seems that way and come to think about it, it was just last week but 8%. Because I used it.

Messages and notifications empty.

In a way it's good. I have no money to spend. Credit cards are a dangerous thing....

@Bronte Same happened to me today. Got the pop-up notification on my phone but nothing was there when I clicked it. Not in my email or notifications.

@Helric1

That's the 2nd offer to go poof!

The first I would have really liked though. % off 100 or more. Pretty sure it wasn't ebucks. Never even seen the offer in that format before

Ok I found it. Go to my eBay and click on messages. It should be the top one. Click it and it opens to the activation screen.
