Ha! Good man. I just posted the same thing. We're watching out for our coin bros.

Sure thing!

coinpalice

any one notice the 15 percent off coupon today? only good until 7 pm pt

Pedzola

If I read it correctly, today's 15% coupon excludes all Coins & Paper Money categories.

Rob41281

The one today can be used only in the app, at least that's what the offer is that I received.

I've messaged a few seller asking if they can change category to collector item... we shall see

The sellers have to be careful in weighting out the changes in category. The FVF % may changes too.

coinpalice

only if you have a store

ms70

15% off everything except what I want.....

ctf_error_coins

I may pull the trigger on this one .....

I've done the same. It looks like you can only use the coupon on 1 purchase. I wonder if I have 5 titmes in my cart and pay for all of them at the same time if that's consider 1 purchase?

I did not get it this time. Looks like I need to stop buying until I get it again

Yes you can combine items in your cart, but the max total discount is $100.

Everyone got it. It’s for the general public. The only stipulation is that one must use the eBay app to make the purchase.

Thank you for bringing this up
coinpalice! Just what I needed

mustangmanbob

Just made a purchase and save a bunch. I had to update my app to do so.

I have 4 more things in my cart, and will be buying them soon.

ShadyDave

I'm confused, can it actually be used on coins or bullion? From what I interpreted, it can't be used in either of those categories.

No; you have to find coins in other categories. Or use it on some other non-coin purchase.

Overdate

@U1chicago thanks that is what I thought.....has been a long day at work.

I don't want 15% off, I want 15% eBay Bucks.

fox9487

There are some 1/10 oz. Proof AGE's listed in the "collectibles" catagory. Got some for myself and the discount applied.

georgiacop50

Should work for postage stamps as well.

amwldcoin

I was going to buy something but the coupon wouldn't work on what I wanted.

derryb

found some gold eagles in Collectibles and used the 15% off coupon. Still some gold eagles there.

Correct. I search on the desktop, add to my watch list and then purchase from my watch list using the app.

coinpalice

someone got a st gaudens below melt with the coupon

I really don't shop on eBay much anymore. Now that they are charging me 8% sales tax on coins that are exempt from sales tax in my state. It's total BS!! This coupon only equates to a 7% savings after sales tax.

OKCC

I was going to buy some silver in the Collectibles category using the coupon, until I saw 8% tax included since I'm here in Washington.

davewesen

I got an eBay bucks offer for 8% this morning - they must not be meeting their sales projections.

Aspie_Rocco

Something that confuses me about the ebucks.if eBay is basically subsidizing sales with ebucks, what difference does it make what categories people buy from?
If increasing sales is the goal, why “handicap sales” by excluding coins and bullion?

Because the subsidy is much steeper in that category. The FVF aren't the same in all categories. For example, little old me pays 5.5% in coins but 9% in collectibles. And someone like Apmex probably pays like 1% in bullion.

Aspie_Rocco

How did you get down to 5.5%?
A store?

Maybe next week, last 15% eBay bucks was on 3/22-3/23 of last year.

coinpalice

yep, and that was the one and only time they had a 15 percent off e bucks promo for the entire year

@ms70 said:

Why? I would much rather take 15% off immediately than get 15% cash back to spend in the future. Both are great though.

Aspie_Rocco

I know there is a math formula to discover what the price is for something that 15% total = $100
But I cannot recall what it is, so I did it the hard way and found (rounded) a $667 purchase will net $100 off with 15% discount.

coinpalice

I made a 650 dollar purchase and got 97.50 off
