    I have never got one of these offers. Must be doing something wrong (or doing something right)

    I just went short eBay stock. You can't put these 10% offers out every single week and not have it catch up to you. Sales are down worse than they thought is my guess. Short at $35.

    I tend to agree. Though I also wonder if many users don't use their eBay bucks or buy a $300 item to use their $10 in eBay bucks. I've wondered this for a while. Otherwise it just reeks of desperation.

    I think, one's that normally play over there never see any of those goodies.

    I got that offer last week and couldn't find anything to buy. Now I have a couple of prime candidates and I didn't get the email.

    Incomplete planchets wanted, especially Lincoln Cents & type coins.

    I believe limit is capped at $100 ebucks correct?

    Good deals with KollectorKing, ChrisRx, Tookybandit, LukeMarshall, and Ajaan! On cointalk, Histman, Sakata, Blisskr, and a few others!

    Just purchased a 1853 H Dime with arrows AU 53 for registry set. Used a $15 off coupon sent to my email and got $14 in eBay Bucks.

    I've been getting a lot of these. I wonder if it's because I have lots of expensive goodies in my watch list...

    So I was looking at an error coin (listed in the error coin section) to buy and get 10% back on but didn't see the ebucks.

    Then I noticed the seller also put the auction in the bullion section, duh!!!!

    NO sale!

    I listed an error SAE yesterday in the bullion category. It sold this morning...no problem.

    Apmex has cluttered up the TPG error category with about 400 non error coins.

    I ended up pretty well. I bought a 1926 Peace Dollar in a rattler, MS64. It was listed for $90, I had a $15 dollar off coupon and got $9. in ebay bucks. Not to mention the 3% I get back from my credit card.

    I spent hours searching and found three BIN's that where priced about wholesale IMO. Each Coin has fantastic eye appeal.

    Two of the coins had best offers and one was an on sale (5%off) BIN, which I bought. Both of my best offers were more than 10% back and both were accepted. eBay gave me an additional 10% ebucks on all three.

    So now I have three super eye appealing coins for my inventory at a good price.

    Ebay has discouraged sellers to such a degree that more often than not these days, I can't find anything to use the ebay bucks offers for. So few new items listed anymore
