  • definitely targeted

    Tried but got "looks like that's the wrong code"

    • Yep. Same. Got the sms but then this error when I try it.

    I got a different code but looks like it's unique so I won't share lmao 🤣

      Is that your $5 off $50 monthly ebay plus one?

      • Wait is that a thing??

        • +1

          Just about missed the boat
          Not sure if they're extending it but it's been like that for a year now.

        • +1

          Wait is that a thing??

          On selected paid accounts, yes.

          If the code starts with myplusxxxxxxxxx, that's where it comes from.

          • @ash2000: Haha yeah

            • +1

              @Scythic: Unfortunately it has a $50 minimum spend, and you can't use any other code in conjunction with it. :(

              • @ash2000: Wait no. I just tested, code works with a $9 item 😯

                • @Scythic: The myplus code? Are you sure it hasn't substituted another code?

                  • @ash2000: How do I check?

                    • @Scythic: On a desktop browser it would show all the codes available to you at the top of your "my ebay" page view.

                      Not sure on the app.

                      Anyway, sounds like a good deal if you can use it on a low value item! I can't :(

    “Eligible Customers” means customers who receive coupon XMAS5OFF in their My eBay while logged into their eBay account.

    • so does it mean that they will SMS you with that but if you don't get it in your My Ebay then you're still not entitled for it?

    Bloody stingy to target selected paying eBay plus members…..but they have.

    • Nah I have plus and no offer

      • +1

        My bad, seems it has nothing to do ebay plus. Maybe a dormant account code.

        • Yeah I think it's some combo of when you last made a purchase, I seem to get offers when I leave accounts inactive a while.

    • I don't have Plus and I got the sms.

      • Do you use this account often or is it a dormant account?

  • +3

    I got it (plus member)…
    Their generosity doth overflow.

    • Ho ho ho

  • Got it from dormant account

    • Same here, bought some sandpaper 🙃

  • +4

    5 whole dollars? Perhaps GRINCH5 is more appropriate.

    • And after the last possible postage date to get anything in time for Christmas too! It should be BOXINGDAY5OFF not XMAS5OF.

  • i got a text with this offer

  • I checked on my ebay summary and got $5 off with a code LTSHIPxxxxx so it seems they have different codes going around

    • +3

      Ltship is a $5 code to compensate for late shipping

      And xp….. is item with guarantee delivery date was late $10 off plus item

      • Thanks for the clarification. I got ebay plus order that not delivered for a couple weeks. Didn’t know they give the compensation in the $5 off

        • +1

          I've received 7 late ship vouchers since early November. Best thing is there is no minimum spend to use them.

  • How do you qualify for the $50 voucher from the eBay Plus and 5$ per month for a year? Is it when you take up the trial and renew or is there a different step?

  • I got this text too.. Anything good you can buy for $5? Haha

  • -1

    Nothing interested to buy anyway.. and it's targeted, good move eBay.

  • +1

    Got it, but every item I apply it to says it can't be used…

    • Probably “selected items” or selected sellers again! :P

      • +1

        Thats what there telling me, but it clearly states "all items listed on ebay.com.au" excluding a few stores and categories, non I'm buying from. Online arguing with them atm :-)

  • These discounts are getting worse and worse.

    I tried to use the gift card I bought from coles for ebay which gave the 2000 points on some overseas purchases to send to overseas addresses and it says can’t do that.

    I bet this $5 thingy won’t work either if you quote a non Aussie address and the $5 saved will probably be mostly eaten up by the GST as well!

    Then again probably lots of people fall for the $5 discount and go buy something more expensive than they would have otherwise purchased!

    • As always do your research before buying.

  • +4

    52 up votes and just 3 people confirming they've received it!

    Clearly aspirational up voting.

  • I got the text but it doesn’t work ..

    • +1

      Ditto. Targeted but still didn't work! Thanks for wasting my time ebay…

  • TARGETED

  • Oddly enough, I haven't used eBay in a while and didn't receive a code.

    Do they email you as well as showing on the main page?
