Just got a notice today that eBay has a whopping 3% bonus bucks going on. I thought the 5% they had last year was measly and now they have dropped it further. What's next 2% ?
Today some people received 3% while others got 8%. I agree that the 3% is an odd choice as it is not much of an incentive. Before eBay bucks were changed a few years ago, 2% was the standard amount and 8% or 10% was the amount during the bonus periods.
Thanks for the reminder - i've got a few eBay $$ expiring at the end of the month - time to buy a coin or two (the bucks will offset my sales tax )
For those that have not received a bonus offer in years, try to open a new account. You can keep your old account as a selling platform and use the new one as a buying platform. You also increase the odds of receiving offers on the new account.
I keep meaning to do that, and it keeps not happening. ("Me opening a new account", not "a new account getting offers".)
Go do it now. Last I heard, you also get a $5 eBay coupon for your first purchase (of course not applicable to coins ).
