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 🙂

Nirvana1cat, yes that immediately confused me too. It is ambiguous and needs clarification. Your post was very well worded.

Also, reading Point 2 of the Coupon Terms and Conditions, it seems to be deliberately vague on what percentage towards any purchased item that any voucher would be worth. For example, if you have a £30 voucher, but it will only be worth 10% of any item you buy, means you'll have to spend £300 to get the full use of the voucher.

Thanks for the reply, I didn’t initially spot the info on Point 2 so thanks for flagging that up too! Having the coupon be a percentage of the item you buy is a bit disappointing tbh, a straightforward discount coupon would have been way better. Ah well. Can’t grumble because money off is money off 🙂

And having a play around With listings I notice that my quota for how many I can sell to be eligible for the voucher goes down irrespective of what I set the starting bid at. So it *looks* like you accrue the coupons on items you sell over £10 and it doesn’t matter what the listing price starts at.
