It's happening again, though only for eBay plus members, which also gives you free delivery ... POKEN20 is the code.
 
For the uninitiated, as you would be aware, whenever ebay has sales or discounts ... "coins and banknotes" are excluded from the list.
However for some reason, Peter's of Kensington sell Royal Australia Mint coins, and do not list them correctly in the category of "coins".

So you can get 20% off products which are rarely discounted.

My problem is I have already bought everything they are selling already, but did pick up a couple of 2021 proof sets for 20% less than what they are "worth".

If you search:
seller:petersofkensington mint

You will see their coin offerings

Yes I bought something from them once for less than RAM price.
But I haven't been much near eBay now for Months.

It is no longer a genuine auction site, just another online outlet.

Nice hack - I usually don't end up using the promo codes, or buying a coin book instead if I see something I want.
