5x Ebay Bucks today and tomorrow

mbogomanmbogoman Posts: 5,234 ✭✭✭✭✭
Just got an email from Ebay offering 5x Ebay Bucks for "VIP" members. No minimum purchase, the usual maximum of $100 per transaction. Now I need to find to find some BINs!

    I must not be a VIP. I have "never" gotten anything like this.

    Wow, cool deal, I got one too.

    Anyone want to use the 5x for a coin on my website, let me know and I can make a BIN on ebay for the item.

    Enjoy your day.

    I was expecting this after Christmas, so the bonus offer may be larger after Christmas

    Great chance now to buy nice coins cheaperimage

    I'll be able to save 100% by not buying anything.

    The timing for me is perfect, just upped my bids.
  • MGLICKERMGLICKER Posts: 7,995 ✭✭✭
    Two auction wins today. Neither had bucks though as bullion listed.

    Smokin deals nonetheless.

    I didn't get it this time. I guess they figured I couldn't use it! I have racked up $1000 in ebay bucks this quarter! image

    I enrolled for the offers over a year ago; I've yet to receive any offers from eBay. I usually rack up about $200/ quarter in eBay Bucks from purchases. I still haven't figured out why I NEVER get offers. Do I bid too much? Buy too much? Too little?

    From what I can see they don't seem to treat all as equals.image
    I love them Barber Halves.....

    Interesting comments. A few years ago ebay notified me I was Power Buyer! Has anyone else received this?

    I hope the Ebay coin sellers here take advantage of the extra bonus Bucks offers ...helping to lure in more ready buyers on the bay.. Can't hurt

    image Your wish is my command! Done after struggling through EBay's many Glitches during their overwhelming Holiday rush. I tried to run a sale during Black Friday and couldn't get it to go through....and then on Cyber Monday...even with a guru from ebay on the phone with me we couldn't get it to go through. Same tonight with a phone Guru but it finally went through! image

    Took some work but I found a nicely toned 1894 dollar in AU.

    Finished off the day with a 1oz Austrian Philharmonic - with the $100 off, got it for a few bucks above spot. Beautiful design. image

    Me too, but I did get a few DVDs I wanted so it wasn't a total waste of time.

    << <i>So the three things I bought;

    10x 1878-S BU Morgans; $250
    1941-1947 Walker album, all 20 coins, AU/BU - $200
    Full set of Buff nicks not including the '13-S T2 and the '18/17-D, but including the 3 legger - $630.

    Total cost = $1070.
    Ebay bucks at 10% = $107.
    Actual cost = $963

    I bet I can get $40 ea for the '78-S's, maybe a touch less = $400
    And $20ish ea avg for the Walkers = $400
    And around $1,000 for the buffalo set.

    $1800 - 12% fees and shipping, - $963 cost = $621.

    Not bad for a days browsing. I love the holidays. >>




    Spent over $3,000 ...on not even originally planned Ebay purchases for the bonus bucks .. bought some nice PCGS Morgans again

    Our budgets are worlds apart. image >>



    You did a great job maximizing your bids......ALSO HATS OFF TO eBAY once again image
  • I used it to buy some old stuff I normally wouldn't. I buy old graded Comics and put them in deep frames and cover the plastic with matting, I then hang then in Children's rooms and play rooms as pop art/Americana.

    I bought this group for a new video game/ play room. I consider it relic art and people love it, I get a dozen times more comments then I do for the real stuff. I don't even mind lower grade stuff as I like the relic effect.

    Bought these for peanuts image
