Folks,
Just noticed there is 15% off all items on ebay.
http://pages2.ebay.com.au/Buyer_coupons/code15?_trkparms=clkid%3D8366810096496063334
Just thought to spread the word :yahoo:

Yep, you have to be quick... :angel::angel:
How did you find out about this promotion?
I didn't get any email from eBay about this.
I didnt get anything.. Just looking at the site and saw it.. So bought something small for my self and thought about my mates here and posted here... If you have something saved in the watch list and was waiting for it to come down in price, this is it :wavemulticolor:
Its a good offer.
I wish they gave us more time though.

I agree... I bought something I was contemplating for awhile since I had the voucher... Listed 2 coins as well with the lowest price I can sell them for so someone else can buy it cheap..
does ebay pay the 15% discount? or does the seller?

I am pretty sure that if the seller had to pay then eBay would make this offer permanent and not for just a couple of days :angel:

ebay pay for it, otherwise its not an offer... :dodgy:
In other words, If I had an item for $1000, buyer only pays $850 for the item. ebay pay the rest to the seller to make it $1000.. (then seller pays the fees for the sale)
You have to pay with paypal so I thought that it was paypal who was the ones paying the difference.
It is a way to get people to use paypal.
We bought a mobile phone from the Good Guys last year with the same deal. Paid by paypal and picked up instore.

I think you are correct... I think it is a partnership deal between the two... ebay and pay pal are two separate companies now.. so it could be a 50% 50% deal.. At the end of the day I dont care as long as I get the discount. I only pay with paypal unless I know the seller very well (I do direct deposits for those)..

What do you have RG... Silver ? or Copper :dodgy::dodgy: ?
Regardless you should list them as people will buy them if the price is right .. (max discount is $300 so if someone like your coins and happy to pay $1700 now you have a deal).
cheers
only usually copper for me
have the odd silver - nothing really high grade
1944 s florin
1963 florin
1956 proof florin (pr64)
and so on

this offer last till 30/09/2016

well done ebay .
I just purchased a set of stainless steel extractors for my car. Was looking at them and tossing up to buy, or not. 15% discount was a good spur to action.
Had a similar set on my previous car (earlier one of same car type) and no significant power gain but 20% reduction in fuel consumption on a trip (not as much, but still less fuel use around town). They paid for themselves within a few months.
And they show some lovely rainbow toning after a little use!

Tell the truth Mate, You only like them because of the "Sound" :whistle2::laugh2:
Did you happen to see the Gosford Car collection on Sydney Weekender last Sunday? One persons collection of 100's of cars in a HUGE shed. Absolutely incredible. Apparently around $70m of cars. (One Ferrari was worth $5m alone). Brilliant black GTHO & an orange 6 pack ..... drool ...... If I ever get down that way I'm going. $20 adult admission so worth a look see.
FYI Groupon is running a deal on eBay also - $85 for $100 to Spend on Anything Online.

But make sure you read the T&C and use it before expiry!
Thanks for the heads up. I have used my 15% off to buy 3 second-hand volumes of Wayne Sayles books on Ancient coins. Sounds like an interesting area and wouldn't mind learning more. Numismatic books always seem to be out of print and copies are very expensive. :(
QuoteTell the truth Mate, You only like them because of the "Sound"
They actually don't give any real change to the "sound". If I wanted to do that I could just replace the original muffler with a "hotdog" muffler -cheap and simple- and risk getting fined for undue noise.
No Uni, was otherwise occupied at that time. I visit friends just near Wyong regularly so must make a note to have a look see myself.
I do know where there is a large shed full of FC and FE Holdens (including all body styles) -I had a peek in there and saw a collection of twin and triple SU carbie sets in the back of a wagon. The windowless panel van next to it had extractors piled to the roof. And the shipping containers nearby are full of spares; engines, gearboxes, diffs, body panels etc.
I knew the owner drove an FC ute he had had for years but, until I went to check his TV aerial, I did not know he had about 80 of them! I have an FC ute to restore as a retirement project (my first ever vehicle was an FC) but no way would he sell me a pair of guards and a bonnet. It's like Fulvio and his stash -"I don't sell them".
BTW guys I managed to score a 1960 Proof 1/2D PR67RD thanks to the offer... I managed to save 15% off that .. so thats a winner ...

I know.. I have missed a few opportunities before and learnt my lesson... I wanted it badly as it was cheap as is... then 15% tipped me over the edge...:yahoo:(http://www.pcgs.com/cert/80871631)

Chris is getting some pretty good promo here lately!!

It is Not often that any particular seller gets praised on this board, It's normally a case of "watch out for this seller" because he/she is dodgy.
Those that DO receive praise must have earned it because this here is a pretty tough crowd to please :ok:
Having spent way above my budget over the last few months I have a self imposed Ban on coin related purchases.
I think that I have done very very well not to be tempted by this offer so far.
For those of you that have taken advantage of this offer Well Done :yahoo:
Lets hope that this sort of thing becomes more frequent in the future :good:
I am $160 in front thanks to this offer. I think we should have a sticky thread with this kind of stuff. I love thinking I saved money.
QuoteI think we should have a sticky thread with this kind of stuff. I love thinking I saved money.
Good idea and, also, voucher codes for other on-line sellers sometimes offer good deals -the sort of thing that appears on the rear of supermarket dockets is an example.
Of course if a discount induces to buy something you may not have purchased otherwise that is not "saving"; that is "spending". [An economist would figure that you have increased your total asset value. That is actually a good thing after all.]

Folks,
There is another offer. This time it is 20% Bing Lee and Dick Smith items on ebay.. use code CUT20 ... Ends 26/09...
My MS64 shilling arrived this arvo and I was slightly crushed to find it was still in someone's set registry. I know how to get it sorted but I was looking forward to the instant gratification of adding it to MY set registries! :@
