16% ebay bucks, with a catch

8% ebay bucks is nice, but any chance there are some gold/silver deals buried in the fashion categories? If so, 16% bonus bucks there.

    My eBay shows I get 2% in fashion. I don't know how you guys get these deals but I never get them and I signed up for them (I think). I guess I just don't do enough business or something. What am I doing wrong?

    Could always call ebay and see if they might bump you up a notch on their offer list?

    I just called eBay and talked with a nice, helpful customer service lady. She walked me through the process and also helped get me set up. We will see what happens. She also said I should now get this promotion.

    let us know if it works! That would be cool if talking to one of their CS agents actually produces a desired result.
