    It's not showing on any of my accounts, and I usually get at least one. Do you have a link?

    Got this one today through the app as well, nicely timed as I am looking at a pricey coin which ends tomorrow night.

    I had several of these offers in the fourth quarter, but none since.

    That means i will not be buying on ebay.

    I got voted off the island this time.

    I'm actually glad. It's only the 4th and I already spent too much on coins this month. The temptation would've been too great.

    Great transactions with oih82w8, JasonGaming, Moose1913.

    It's a clip on a classic coin, so you probably wouldn't be interested ;)

    I called and complained. I felt special last year, nothing this year. I'm on protest. Told them this is the internet age. If they were smart they would post to us collectors on the PGGS and NGC boards awarding us collectors. Win Win for the hobby and their marketing.🤐 Guess I'm an idiot and spent too much where they don't have to offer me a discount. Ol well there's many other sites in the 21st century.

    Thank You so very much @Abuelo I didn't get an offer by email or message from ebay. I downloaded the app on my phone and there it was. I bought a proof Indian that I have been watching for a while.

    I have both, nada. Don't expect that in the future. Your special today and a piece of meat in the future. Just saying....... What's wrong with these businesses today, it's all about money, I don't need much respect but if 20 to 25k a year is chump change then so be it, been buying my hobbies since 1997 JMO.

    Classic reply, hey I got 20% off on used girl crap. Once I use my $80+ in ebay bucks this quarter I told them to delete my account😤

    **I've received some information in regard to the eBay Bucks promotions. We often do promotions for our buyers on a case by case basis. Our current offer was sent to certain buyers. Which also means that will offer other promotions of more value you to you, that you will be included in, that other buyers may not have access to. This doesn't make anyone more or less valuable than the other. I appreciate you taking the time in voicing your concern and I hope this information clears up any questions you have.

    Thanks,**

    Yes, I got the 20% off "designer" clothes & accessories coupon too. And that one hurts, for two reasons. First, even though the seller is listed as being in USA, my guess it is really a shipper from China. Two, their biggest reason for lots of negative feedback, complaints of the stuff being fake!

    Well seems this is like reaganomics, the trickle down theory is in action 🤷🏽‍♂️

    After I nuked my watch list and PayPal permissions, I'm thinking I really don't need them now either.

    In fact after uninstalling the Ebay app on my smartphone it has gone silent 😂 I thought I was important with all that spam, you know: item shipped, item received, ending soon, special junk deals I don't need etc.

    I'm sure I'm not allowed to be offended but I was disappointed that David Lawrence had a nice coin marked down 12%, had I got the additional 10% off it would have been a good deal. These seem to hardly ever including coins. I can buy coin silver out of category but not $2000/3000 an ounce collectors coins on them.

    Man I got 20% off on woman's wear, some targeted marketing. Guess collectors Conor or vendor websites with paper checks are in my future🤷🏽‍♂️

    Good thing everyone is going to BIN. They'll be one less bidder on their auctions. I thought I'd get a deal on Sunday after thinking about and passing on a $800 BIN it came back relisted as an auction.

    I thought good deal, I'll save $25-$50, oh no, bid close to the old BIN price with another bidder that kept bidding right over me in discovery and then would bid again (twice in row on bid list). Well we must of sucked a couple other bidders in. At the end neither of us won with a finial price of $890. Funny how that works🤔

    I did get an offer - 20% off for Luxury Looks. Some coins might be luxury, but they were not include.

    And those pants sold in Luxury would make me look fat anyway.

    Thanks for the update. I got the 20% luxury goods thing on both app and computer versions. No Ebay Bucks... Ebay must target certain customers at different times to get more folks to buy more and different things...

    They have their algorithm...just like everyone else. No sense in getting outraged about it. [Not you, but someone else on the thread.] I have 2 eBay accounts. Sometimes, I get it on one and not the other, sometimes on both. This time, I got it on neither. Big deal. I'll just wait until next time. Canceling your account or getting outraged is a waste of emotional energy and biting your nose to spite your face: you definitely won't get the next one if you opt out. And what other retail site is giving you a 10% rebate on coins or precious metals? I don't know of one.

    It seems that the people who use the eBucks coupons the most, spend the most, and speak nicely of ebay always get the coupons.

    I don't understand their methods. I have 4-5 accounts, and a few always get the codes, a few never do. This was the first time none of mine got them though.

    I receive about 90% of the e-bucks discounts. This time I received none on 2 accounts.

    No discounts = no motivation to purchase anything. it's really up to E-Bay whether I buy or not.

    When the price sets up I'm always willing to buy. If not...I'm happy for everyone who received the offering and participated.
