Though not with this offer, my last several eBay Buck deals have advertised them as being for "VIPs". I don't know what that category is, whether there is actually such a thing as a non-VIP eBay buyer, what you do to get in, etc. This is what they looked like in my email:
Thanks for posting the images. I've been an eBay member since 1998 and have never received those. 100% FB with 1200+. If anyone wants to let me use their coupon I'll happily accept! I'm looking at an autographed ball at the moment and it would come in handy.
DO NOT buy anything until after 11:00AM Eastern time today, because the extra bucks don't kick in until that time!!!
STAY HEALTHY!

Liquidating my collection for the 3rd and final time. Time for others to enjoy what I have enjoyed over the last several decades. Money could be put to better use.

Yeah, I don't think changing communication preferences is the solution. Definitely necessary, but I changed mine about a year before I got my first offer.
I get every ebay bucks promo and usually miss out based on timing of my purchases...was bummed that it happened yet again to me this morning prior to the promo...but I wasn't done...just pulled the trigger on a nice Mantle to add to my collection with 4x ebay bucks..yahooooo
I am by no means a big spender on ebay or a big time seller but I get these offers rather frequently. I took advantage of the current offer and picked up a 1948 Bowman Musial RC that I have had my eye on for some time. I have been wanting this card for a long time so I am pretty pumped!
I am going after a couple of cards this week, but the auctions end the day after this promotion expires.

Geez... I always get the eBay Buck offers but I didnt get this one... I sure would like to have it. A card popped up a day after the 5x bucks (which I was invited to) that I would love to pull the trigger on.

Lots of these cards are listed by well known professional sellers that can be easily contacted off-line. Contacting them off-line to purchase a card privately can turn your 2x-5x ebay bucks into an easy 10% off or more and there won't be a cap of $100 off like Ebay bucks has for over $1000 purchases.
eBay asked me for feedback on my recent customer service interaction. I didn't hold anything back. I doubt they'll care though. They still do nothing about the pack resealers that I pointed out to them and that was months ago.
<< <i>me neither, but with 10% the 'norm' now at the end of every quarter, I'm guessing it's just a matter of time.. >>
They seem to just play around with the conditions of the 10%, end of quarter I would expect 10% with no minimum per item. Other months vary with the 2x-5x at various per item levels or 10% at a single threshold.
Mine also came much later than normal. Usually comes a few hours before the promotion starts ... this time it came a few hours AFTER it started.
STAY HEALTHY!

I used to receive all of the ebay bucks offers, but was never able to use them. Finally, right before Christmas I used 2 different ones to get bucks. I haven't gotten an offer since.
I got the email today but it didn't get sent to my eBay mail account. When I opened the email the sign in screen was different, so I was not sure if it was actually from eBay. Anyone else notice the new sign in screen?

Here is a way to fix that. Close your browser. Open it again. Sign into ebay. Open Email and click your link. If it shows a sign in screen you know it is spoofed.

<< <i>This is the first time I remember NOT getting the offer! >>
Mine came in much later than normal, less than 3 hours ago and well after the promotion had started.
the promo was scheduled to commence at 8am PST, as they usually do.
however, the notification about the promo did not hit my emai box until 10:30am PST
