You're limited to $100 in ebay bucks from one item so buying something over $667 (@ 15% ebay bucks) causes inefficiency! Same thing with over $1000 @ 10%, over $1250 @ 8%, and over $1667 @ 6%.
I guess I was looking at it from the standpoint of a NGC MS 63 Saint for $1263 after the eBay bucks.

I bought one at 8% last week. It was a PCGS 63 1924 $20 gold. Nice, solid coin. You're back of melt. It's not the BEST deal on eBay today, but if it is something YOU want, go for it!

MCM replenished the supply of 2017 ASEs. Current price is $395.20. That's $59+ in Ebay bucks, plus whatever your CC gives you. My last net was $331 for a roll
I dropped off the eBay Bucks promotions a few years ago........but then I received the 8% offer and today the 15% offer, which is amazing. I may be up all night looking for deals.
If I recall correctly, I was dropped from the eBay Bucks high % offers when I did not buy something. When you get the high percentage offer I advise that you buy something to buy to keep active in their program.
Did get a roll from MCM. Sold 8 in 15 minutes. One left but likely gone now. Also bought 1/10 70 gold eagle earlier but those gone also. Thanks for the heads up.
I way overspent my coin budget tonight....
Filled a couple IHC Proof holes (PCGS) and got an AU Trade Dollar coming (PCGS/CAC)
Also "needed" 2018 SAEs (got 3 books to fill and then will have "leftovers"....if prices go down on silver this year, I may buy another roll or singles to fill this one back up).

If I remember correctly there's somewhere that you have to opt in for them. There should be a link on the left for "eBay Bucks".
I opted in about 5 years ago- never received a single offer.
I was the same way with my main account. Member since 2001 never a single offer. Finally made a second account and get them every time now. It's the only way you'll get them I think.
Thanks @TomB. I did find a nice No Stems 1803 large cent in VG10 PCGS, the S-243 with dropped S on the reverse and double fraction bar, and a great MS64 1864 two cent piece. And you recall correctly--the next quarter starts on Easter Sunday!

Actually, I used to get them on my second account but not my primary (member since 1997). Turned out I didn't have the advertising offers enabled on the old account. It's not enough to simply be signed up for eBay bucks, you also have to enable spam. If you aren't getting daily advertising emails for "specials" from eBay, you probably don't have the spam enabled which means you don't have the bonus offers enabled.
Up to $320 eBucks so far - would have been higher had I won the Franky sample last night.

I did everything possible on my original account including calling and asking to get the offers. Never anything other than junk offers. Opened a second account and have got every offer since.
Well I did this last night on a 1881 cc Morgan ms64 CAC Old Green Holder....
Made offer, got it. Used a 20 percent off coupon that eBay gave me...Then got eBay bucks at %15
$550 offer (Accepted)
$500 Minus the $50 (coupon)
Got the $82.50 Ebay bucks
$417.50 after I redeem the ebay bucks, buy something I can sell for $82.50!
I got the ebay bucks on the offer not the actual cost..
Never received an offer in the past but I don't buy much. Never changed my account which I've used to sell since November 1997. Received the last three offers including this one for 15%. Go figure. Maybe it depends on how much they need to increase sales for their quarterly report. $248.38 in eBay Bucks so far on this offer.
it's crackers to slip a rozzer the dropsy in snide
Well something I really like popped up but it's grotesquely overpriced, so much so that even the eBay bucks won't make up the difference. I guess I don't like it enough to cross the threshold of stupid money.
Great transactions with oih82w8, JasonGaming, Moose1913.
Surprised the coins offered on the bay didn't expand after 15 % big bonus bucks offer started
Does Ebay give a heads up to coin sellers about coming Bonus buck deals?
Did pick up some nice Gold and Morgans.. Thanks Ebay ...Maxed out bucks for the Quarter

well, you've got to consider this is the 3rd offer in 3 weeks. I actually loaded up excess inventory last week to take advantage of that offer which actually offered the seller eBay bucks as well as the buyer.
And most coin businesses will have the majority of their inventory listed at all times anyway.
In quarters past they have given out offers in the final week, last chance for ebay bucks etc. Wouldn't be surprised at all to see a final offer for the quarter next week. I can't remember another time in my 18 years on ebay with as many bonus offers as there was in this quarter. My main account that had not seen offers in years even started getting them. They must really be struggling for revenue or something.
The whole worlds off its rocker, buy Gold™.

Exhausted, spent two full days searching the bay. Made many offers. Burned through thousands yesterday on certified errors.
Ended up with an aluminum triangle, copper and silver scrap cent, double dated silver error (wow), Huge DS Super modern jeff, copper cap, and an OC Ike.
I spent 2 nights trying to find something that i needed so I could use this 15% offer. I could not find anything that was not priced through the roof as a BIN. But I did win one auction Friday night so I did not go away empty handed.

So far I bought a $190 wholesale coin for $190. $28 in eBay bucks.
The 15% is real high.
I guess I was looking at it from the standpoint of a NGC MS 63 Saint for $1263 after the eBay bucks.
Stock images; you could easily get a low end 63 1924 $20.

Thanks for the heads up - bought a roll of 20.
I scored on a $999 Bin-b/o merc dime on my watch list.
Offered 800 and got it!
100 ebay bucks, ka ching!
And it's got a green bean!

Just contacted a seller and asked him to raise his price from $149.96 to $150.00. Strange days...
Smitten with DBLCs.
Been there done that. lol

How do you find your ebay bucks cert number ?
I look for it every once in a while, sometimes I find it, sometimes not.
They issue it ever quarter, so unless it's that time of the year, you won't find it.
Have the 15% bonus, but I can’t find diddly squat to buy.

....don't tell the wife
I've been told I tolerate fools poorly...that may explain things if I have a problem with you. Current ebay items - Nothing at the moment
My 15% offer was for anything in my watch list....unfortunately I already have the max allowed for the quarter.
I got it too and it took me forever to shop around. Sure is a lot of overpriced gold hanging around cybernetically.
Kind regards,
George

@amwldcoin what's the max figure? Thanks, George
You may earn $500 ebay bucks per quarter. This quarter ends, if I recall correctly, on March 31.

Gold up $20 today! C'mon Apmex, ship me my sale gold so I can dump it before it drops again! LOL.

Not bad!
Some people who have opted in have not gotten the attractive percentage offers; are they discriminating against some people with the ebucks?
Ok, I want to move some inventory today, because I want to buy some inventory TODAY!!!!!
Here is the deal. I can give you 5% off today only and only if you ask.
Add that with the 15% coupon and save almost $20% on any of my BIN's.
Unique coins only one person can own.
Pulled one of many triggers on a very nice coin. It ain't round tho

I am looking to buy Nice Major error coins as BIN so list them today

Just maxed out at 500 bucks, thank you ebay.
Spent two full days scouring ebay. It is work!!!
Ended up with Five PCGS Mint Errors and One NGC error.
All super nice best eye appeal for the price on ebay ... now mine.
Couldn’t pass this one up.
Ended up buying the AU 20 Francs even though they were out of the special price ones. Still under melt!

I didn't get any of the more recent ebucks offers but did get the 15%.
I ended up earning just under $200. Best one they've had yet!
Feel so left out, no offers here at all.

Got an already cheap 17-D type 1 quarter in pcgs ms63fh for 300 net. Good timing.
I spent 2 nights trying to find something that i needed so I could use this 15% offer. I could not find anything that was not priced through the roof as a BIN. But I did win one auction Friday night so I did not go away empty handed.
A couple sellers I follow, had a couple good days with their BINs.
