eBay has reintroduced some great coupons codes. They only work if you pay through paypal and its one per auction only and if they do work, it will be only one time each. These codes only work for some paypal accounts, so bid with the intention of paying the full price to avoid any unpleasant surprises.
Coupon Codes
Enjoy the deals while you can 🙂
Update: ‘mrsilver’ from the DealDetectives Forums has found a clever method to test a coupon code before purchasing or making a bid:
Simple 8 step process to test eBay coupons to see if they work without buying:
IMPORTANT: With this method you will start to pay for an ?immediate pay? item and then not complete which will not cause you to buy the test item.
However, if you don?t follow these directions, you could buy the item and you are responsible for this mistake so do this at your own risk!
This is quick and easy to do after you learn the steps, but be sure to read all directions.1. Find an item that has ?Immediate Pay? and is Buy-It-Now. If you can?t find one or don?t know what this means, this seller sells only with immediate pay.
2. Click on ?Buy It Now? button. WARNING: The listing MUST say ?Immediate Payment Required? or you will buy it!
3. Login to eBay
4. Choose ?Continue to paypal? (usually at the bottom)
5. Login to Paypal
6. Now you should be on the screen called ?Confirm your payment”. Now you can enter the codes where it says ?Have coupons or gift certificates??
7. If the code works you will see some money deducted from the amount. Congrats if you have a working code, if not, it will also tell you.
8. DO NOT press the PAY button! Instead press the LOG OUT button (top right of the page).You have now confirmed your codes and are ready to shop knowing that your codes will work.
