I might have a big purchase coming up soon... anyone know when the last 8-10% eBay bucks coupon was out? Or when the next one might appear?
I think the 10% eBucks incentives may be a thing of the past. Last month they didn't offer me a 10, an 8 or even a 6% incentive. Not once. Instead, they doubled the 1% incentive to 2%, and increased the duration from just the usual 2 days to the several weeks left in the month. I was sort of cold on that, and didn't buy much.
I keep forgetting about this. I never have anything on my wish list when they send the email. Oh well.
Last month was a big disappointment with eBay Bucks, and I have a feeling those 10% days are history or at least a very rare occurrence. Received my code number last week. Let's hope March' ebay Bucks experiment was just that. As a coin dealer, it does help drive sales also.
One of my accounts got a 2% incentive for the remainder of the month, and a few of my accounts still got 6-10% promos.
Interesting . . . I wonder what criteria they used for deciding which to offer to which accounts? Had you previously been accumulating most of your eBucks on the account that only got the 2% incentive last month?
I got a 10% last month. I'm pretty sure. As the quarter came to a close I got a 8% as well. My ebucks from Q1 were around $135. I used it to buy another CBH.
eBay will occasionally send out email messages to registered users, offering an eBay Bucks promotion whereby you earn anywhere from 2% to 10% eBay Bucks on most purchases as opposed to the standard 1%. eBay tightened the percentage in March for most users as 2% was offered all month, instead of a two-day promotion giving 6-10% on most purchases. Hope that helps!
I was under the impression that you lost any ebay bucks that were not spent at the end of a period. My offers of late have not been as high as 2%.
You're correct . . . you have about 1 month after they're first awarded to use them up. After that month runs out they are worthless.
I haven't been able to figure out how/why they give them. I NEVER get offers on my main selling account, and hardly ever get offers on my main buying. My other accounts get them fairly often, and I only use those accounts when offers come around.
I got a 10% last month. They are spreading it out between enrolled members. Know some members that got 2% for the whole month instead. This is the first month of the new quarter. They usually don't do Extra Bucks the first couple of weeks of a new quarter, especially if you still have a balance of your previous quarter's Bucks certificate. They don't want buyers to double dip on Extra Bucks.
