This post contains affiliate links. OzBargain might earn commissions when you click through and make purchases. Please see this page for more information.

Update 4: Working again

Update 3: Despite the button showing up and being able to get to checkout, you can't purchase the vouchers anymore.

UPDATE 2(9/6): It appears the deal is active but you can't access it via clicking via OzBargain. Copy the link and paste in your browser. You may need to refresh a couple of times before it allows you to put it into your cart.

UPDATE (24/5): The deal is active again.

Groupon is offering $100 of eBay credit for only $85. You can buy multiple things via add to cart but must use the credit in one transaction. You can get $10 off for new Groupon accounts so $75 for $100. Groupon have fixed that.

  • eBay Voucher Code is valid for use in a single transaction only
  • Limit 1 transaction per voucher. Multiple items can be purchased in one transaction (up to a maximum of 10 items per transaction).
  • The voucher expires on 31 July 2016 and any voucher which is not redeemed by 23:59 (AEST) on 31 July 2016 will cease to be valid
  • eBay Voucher Code is valid for use on ebay.com.au only.
  • Your eBay Voucher Code will be emailed to you in approximately 2-4 business days from the email alias: Groupon ([email protected])
  • Not to be used in conjunction with any other eBay or PayPal coupon/voucher.

Groupon eBay T&Cs

3 bought as of 4:15PM. Found this deal through Groupon's cryptic Tweet earlier today. Not sure if you can use cashback but Pricepal has 9% for founders.

Buy anything on eBay like more gift cards (gift card inception)! no nevermind, T&Cs say you can't do that.

From lplau:

If you get a refund, the coupon will become active again with the amount. Therefore it can be re-used.

I just got a refund and on Paypal it will say "Refund Coupons to be sold on Groupon", but it actually goes to the coupon code that was used. Therefore it can be reused.

  • nebula9 on 19/05/2016 - 16:57

    Hey has anyone successfully used the WELCOME code for this promotion? I'm talking to tech support after it failed to apply when using Paypal to checkout, and have been told quite definitively "you will not be able to use the promo code for the eBay deal"

    • Turd on 19/05/2016 - 16:58

      scotty did and worked. I think around the ~30 or so bought mark it was working then it stopped.

      • neil on 19/05/2016 - 17:03

        They fixed it up.

  • Telios on 19/05/2016 - 16:57

    Probably worth noting:

    • eBay Voucher Code is valid for use on ebay.com.au only

    Not sure if that limits overseas purchases if you can still add .au to the link??

    • hamza23 on 19/05/2016 - 17:27

      You can add .au to the link and it'll work.

      • chyawala on 19/05/2016 - 18:29

        And what exchange rate might you expect? Prob lose 5% right there.

          Surprisingly good, it's not using the dodgy PayPal exchange rates.

          Eg this random item is US $169 or AU $232.35 on the eBay site. That is actually better than xe rates which aren't even obtainable anyway or US $169 = $234.67.

      You need to wait 2-4 days anyway

        I would have waited…

  • dealmaker on 19/05/2016 - 17:10

    I want to buy 20 pcs of the same item, which will exceed the $100. Just not sure if the 10 items limit is applicable to separate items? Or applies to same item also? Any clues?

    Also not sure if i can buy multiple of the $100 vouchers from groupon and buy 2 lots of 20 pcs and save $30 in the process?

    Thanks

    • hamza23 on 19/05/2016 - 20:11

      I'd be pretty confident that it only applies to separate items, that is how eBay promo codes have worked. You are only buying 1 item (just in multiple quantities).

  • dealmaker on 19/05/2016 - 17:16

    Also not sure if i can buy 2 of the $100 vouchers from groupon and buy 2 lots of 20 pcs in 2 separate transactions and save $30 in the process?
    I don't mind the additional quantity as I need it anyway.

      multiple emails?

      • docpol on 19/05/2016 - 21:34

        You're allowed to buy max of two :).

        • Herbse on 19/05/2016 - 23:44

          Hm. Odd.. When I tried to buy a second, it said I reached the max limit.

        • videoman on 20/05/2016 - 10:34

          @guy incogneto:
          You probably had to buy two of them at the same time.

    Note the recent Woolies gift voucher deal, similar $10 off for new accounts. I was refunded via a paypal email with no explanation from Groupon (poor form, a simple courtesy cancellation email would have sufficed). So warning to those who bought prior to this being fixed, your voucher may be refunded in a few days also.

  • isthisreallife22 on 19/05/2016 - 18:06

    Haven't been able to source a cheaper way of buying a motherboard for my PC repair so this fits the need nicely

  • timv on 19/05/2016 - 18:18

    can i use two vouchers in same transaction?
    nvm "Please note: eBay Voucher Codes cannot be combined at checkout (1 Voucher Code per transaction on eBay)"

  • Domingo on 19/05/2016 - 18:39

    I wonder if their strategy is to hope a lot of people buy this and don't get around to using it in time.

    • abc on 19/05/2016 - 21:09
      +2

      Thats pretty much a strategy of all gift cards and vouchers.

      Brilliant idea for the retailer/seller. They bank your money upfront.

  • pull the lever on 19/05/2016 - 18:47

    "The voucher expires on 31 July 2016 and any voucher which is not redeemed by 23:59 (AEST) on 31 July 2016 will cease to be valid"
    This part is tricky. eBay will have their inevitable 20% off. Still, a good buy if you need something @ $100 now.

  • anonymoususer on 19/05/2016 - 18:49

    Can this be used with COLLECT 20% code?

    • hamza23 on 19/05/2016 - 20:08

      No:

      Not to be used in conjunction with any other eBay or PayPal coupon/voucher.

      This deal is for an 'eBay Voucher Code' so you wouldn't be able to enter 2 codes at checkout anyway.

  • PreSsieGuY on 19/05/2016 - 19:22

    OP said he bought 3, i also decided to also buy 3.
    thanks for helping me make up my mind.

    • neil on 19/05/2016 - 19:24

      I meant the ticker on their page said 3 bought, it now says 409 bought. I'm struggling to figure out what I will buy with 1.

      • PreSsieGuY on 19/05/2016 - 19:32

        Doh so you only bought 1? Its alright. Ive made a large list of things i want in the last few days :))

  • bargainist on 19/05/2016 - 19:27

    how do you get cashback? i go via cash rewards, but cannot search for this deal

    • neil on 19/05/2016 - 19:53

      Cashback probably won't work but may as well try, go to:

      It's not searchable on Groupon's site.

      • easternculture on 19/05/2016 - 19:57

        cashback not payable on any kind of gift cards

    • Herbse on 19/05/2016 - 23:48

      I ran into this problem as well.

      What I did was click the link from the ozbargain post. Click buy now, choose paypal and continue. Then closed the page before paying.
      Went into Cashback, clicked through to the Groupon site, and under My Coupons - there's a coupon being "processed" in your account, I clicked the link there and started a new purchase of the coupon.

      A few minutes after purchasing it, I got an email from Cashback saying it registered.

      • CVonC on 24/05/2016 - 00:16

        and under My Coupons - there's a coupon being "processed" in your account, I clicked the link there and started a new purchase of the coupon.

        what happened to the "processing" one in the list after you made the new purchase?

          It goes away after a while

  • Hiphopopotamus on 19/05/2016 - 21:23

    Is 2 the max? Do we need a 2nd account to buy more?

  • peterpeterpumpkin on 19/05/2016 - 21:35

    I understand collusion between seller and buyer is forbidden but is there any seller that sells mint-condition $100 collectible notes from I dunno, 2014? Or is that considered a "gift card".

    • coolhand on 19/05/2016 - 21:40

      seller would still be hit with about 15% in fees (paypal + FVF) so total cost for your $100 bill will be $117.65 - 15% = $100 + postage…

    it was $75 because I used my $10 groupon account credit. (referral $10)
    Weird I used the same email address for groupon and paypal.

    Is this a trick of groupon that erasing their website's credit?

      Seller isn't involved with that part of the transaction (assuming it's not a cash transaction). That's between the buyer & eBay/Paypal.

      • PR0r on 24/05/2016 - 14:13
