Earn 10% of your sale back as a coupon!

Hi, I have activated the following offer:

"Earn 10% of your sale back as a coupon!*

Simply sell any item for £10 or more to receive a coupon worth 10% of the final sale. Keep selling until you've earned a total of £200 in coupons! Offer ends 14 Sept.

*Valid on up to 200 listings. Max £50 per coupon. By activating this offer you agree to receive further communications about the promotion. T&Cs apply.

How to get your coupon:

1. Activate the offer
2. List any item for £10 or more until 14 Sept and sell within the first listing period
3. Once item has sold, check 'My eBay' for coupon"

My question is does the item have to be listed at £10 or above or does it just have to sell at £10 or above?

The first line says sell an item for £10 or more... but under the How to get your coupon section, it says list any item for £10 or more... big (but subtle) difference between these two statements. So is this saying I can't claim a coupon if I list an item with a starting bid of £0.99 and the item sells for £20 for example? Can anyone clarify?

Thanks 🙂

AsI have not seen or heard of anyone getting such an offer, I have no information at all. I suggest you read the T & C as you have all the information to hand.

If this is an ebay offer does it show in your PROMOTIONS? If so as it only applies to items selling over £10 there is very little point in listing at a price less than £10.

Thanks for the reply. Yes it does show on the Promotions section. Maybe it’s a new thing which is why you’ve not heard of it yet. But yeah I’ve read the T&Cs which is where my confusion lies, as some statements say sell an item for £10 or over and some statements say list an item for £10 or over.

From the T&Cs: “list an item in auction-style or fixed price format on ebay.co.uk with free insertion fees (with a maximum of 200 free listings on top of your usual free listing allowance) during the Promotional Period;
sell the items in the first listing period for at least £10 each and the item(s) have been paid for or you have marked them as paid.”

But also, to claim the coupon “list any item for £10 or over”.

Btw I often list items with a low starting price (i.e. under £10) to stimulate interest in the items which more often than not translates into more bids.
