    Ditto, I got both the quad and '100% more rewards' offers which works out to 10% off anything over $150, but it seems everything I'm interested in that's reasonably priced in the $100-250 range has already been picked up with all the other recent quad/10% offers. All that's left now is seriously overpriced BINs and auctions that end on the wrong day(s) for the offers.

    I did!

    Picked up a 1956 Ted Williams PSA 6, and 7 other 1956 PSA 6.5/7s I needed for my set

    I'm working on a 86 Jordan, as well as a couple other things but not sure I'll get those done

    Yes! Didn't want to jinx it because the last item I was looking at still needed to complete its auction. I bought two cards. One modern and one 1970's HOF RC. Can't wait to get them. I will post pics when they arrive.

    I got a 10% bonus and used it to buy a lot of 3 1980 Topps baseball wax racks~saved me $27.00 off the purchase price.

    I decided to purchase a Lou Brock rookie.
    Look forward to getting it in the mail.

    I'm not sure how quadruple bucks = 10% but I got that too on a nice cello pack for a future Christmas rip!

    What does one have to do to be included in these promotions. I don't get them.

    I believe I received an email from eBay inviting me to enroll in the program.

    I believe the offer was 10% off if purchase price was over $250.

    I would have maxed out on Ebay bucks from a purchase I made the day before... so I feel like I lost $65 Ebay bucks, lol.
  • pdub1819pdub1819 Posts: 1,988 ✭✭✭✭
    Here's a scan on my Brock that I picked up.

    I have to say that the ebay bucks program definitely makes me pull the trigger on cards when I wasn't planning on it.

  • I have never gotten a single offer for extra eBay bucks. What's the deal? image

    have you signed up for the email promotions? that's first step. after that, it's really a question of whether you buy enough?

    i only started getting them this year, but i've also been a much bigger buyer the past 9 months or so.
  • I am subscribed to "general email promotions". Should I check something else?

    I buy quite a bit ... so I would hope that I qualify.

    FWIW, I buy very little on ebay ($300/year, maybe), and I got my first 4x ebay bucks offer today.

    I did get a free $15 ebay coupon recently though. All I had to do was opt-in to their email promotions.

    I grabbed a couple things...

    My ebay bucks total is at 83.00 right now. I need to stop buying.

  • Yeah, I don't really want to say, but I buy a *little* over $300 a year. ... image Maybe I should call them?

    I just bought the above Brock rookie, and I am now looking for another card...I need to stop buying too or I'm never going to save up for the Mantle or Mays rookie!

    go to your account under "communication preferences" and "promotions and surveys" preferences - there's a bunch of choices, but I suspect the critical one is "general email promotions"

    Good luck! I like everyone else need to calm down the buying as well, I think my bucks is over $120 for this quarter already so you do the math! 1956 Topps set in PSA 6 to 7 tweaks the numbers upward when you buy some of the key cards in short succession.

    Thank you bounce!

    I had no idea I had to go in and do that. I've been getting the normal ebay bucks for a few years, but have literally never received any of their special offers.

    I just spent over $2g's the past two days on three items, so not getting the quad bucks offer cost me more than $120 image

    Two boxes of 2014 Topps Museum to quench my gambling bug. If it's like most of my other high end rips, I will probably be quenching the fool out of it.

    Missed out on every 1986-87 Fleer Basketball PSA 10 I wanted, but they all went too high anyways. I'll chalk it up as saving money so it feels like a win..... I guess.

    The biggest lesson I've learned in this hobby, and in life, is that if you have a strong conviction, you owe it to yourself to see it through. Don't sell yourself, or your investments, short. Unless the facts change. Then sell it all.

    I couldn't stay away.... Picked up a low grade Ernie Banks rookie for my HOF set.

    I didn't pick up anything on the May 12 eBay bucks deal as my budget exploded this weekend. I did pick up two cards during last weeks eBay bucks promo. Just got them in the mail yesterday. I am very happy to add these two cards.

    Andrew Luck is the only modern football player I collect. I am working on getting all his Topps Chrome RC refractor variations (non-auto) in PSA 10. This is my 3rd pick up and the lowest numbered so far (this one is numbered to 216)

    This is one of the best centered Murray RC's I have seen. Paid a little more than average for it, but with the eBay bucks deal it ends up on par for the cost of a PSA 9 and I think this one is a higher end 9. So very happy as I have wanted this card for a while.

    Pdub- thanks! It looks even nicer in person I need to tap the holder to get it to sit straight in the holder as the card is better centered than it looks in the scan. Congrats on the Brock. That is a great looking card. I have always loved the looks of the wood border on that set. Post your Banks when you get it. I have been looking to add a Banks RC for a while now so I can live vicariously through yours image

    Here is the my latest pick up, which I picked up on quadruple ebay bucks day:

    I'm happy with it and it didn't break the banks (see what I did there?), so I'm still able to keep saving for the Mantle or Mays.
