          and if you have a dispute with the seller, the coupon is not refundable meaning you loose the $100

          I had a few friends who bought some items from china that turned out to be fake and lost their money via last times groupon ebay deal

          Even say you buy something from an aussie retailer and later you decide to return it for a refund, you still loose the value of the $100 ebay voucher

          This is how ebay is cashing on this deal

          And then there is the issue that you have to spend the voucher in one go, and this way ebay is forcing buyers to spend at least $100

          No, not true guys. Stop creating false drama.
          If you email ebay, they will credit your PayPal account once they confirm your next purchase.
          This is how i got my last 2 coupons reimbursed from sellers failing to send the item.

          Those are quotes from EC in the last exact same deal, except somebody else posting it.
          Plenty of people had problems with losing their money with refunds or not being able to use the codes. Please actually read the last post comments pages that Hamza23 posted above https://www.ozbargain.com.au/node/266138#comment-4007196 It's great that you got a refund but many did not.

          @easternculture:
          There were three problems EC;
          1/Many people had issues applying the code and got the message "Looks like this code isn't ready yet. Please try again later."
          2/Some applied it more than once (bought more than one) and could not procede and when contacting customer service got the old "too bad/so sad" and lost the entire voucher. Presumably for T &C violation
          3/Many of those who needed to do returns and lost their entire voucher including the $85 real money with no recourse.
          My neg is for a "risky" deal. $15 off $100 spend is good in theory but previous experience shows this deal has a definite element of risk and annoyance.

          Having personally spent couple of evenings chasing eBay/Paypal rep for reimbursement, some who just plainly played dumb despite evidence presented (past chat logs) , I'm negging this deal due to the risks and past outcome of people losing their $85.
          Honestly not worth your time when things go wrong.

        • Izefyre on 02/03/2017 - 20:39

          @Spackbace: I had an issue with an item before and used the voucher. I simply asked the seller for a refund and the same amount I paid was deposited to my paypal account. It depends I guess.

        • [Deactivated] on 03/03/2017 - 21:42

          I had ordered an out of stock item.. Seller issued refund but ebay cannot refund so instead they gave me a $100 voucher for inconvenience.. Their customer service is excellent…

        • PreSsieGuY on 20/03/2017 - 19:06

          This isnt true. I thought i lost my money when seller turned out to be scammer. I got all my money back and more actually as the exchange rate changed. Wouldnt hesitate on buying this

    Can I use 10% off and pay by coupon?

    • hamza23 on 02/03/2017 - 11:31

      No you can't combine with any other discount codes. This $100 voucher will come as a code to use at checkout, and it will only allow 1 code per purchase.

      Please note: eBay Voucher Codes cannot be combined at checkout (1 Voucher Code per transaction on eBay)

      This voucher/deal is good for $100-$150 purchases, if you are purchasing over $150 better to use the 10% off code, or save this voucher for later when you need something when no promo is on.

  • CaptainCoolio on 02/03/2017 - 13:28

    BUY2DAY doesn't work for this deal, probably because it's a gift card:

    $10 off your first Groupon is valid on deals $49 and over. Offer cannot be used on Village Roadshow Theme Park deals and gift cards. Valid 1 per person and cannot be used with another discount promo. The discount will be applied to one single voucher and not the basket amount.

  • mikmac on 02/03/2017 - 13:36

    Any one know if it's legal for them to say " and any voucher which is not redeemed by 23:59 (AEST) on 30 May 2017 will cease to be valid"?

Not only i had got problems, some others experiencing the same. Deal is good, but considering poor customer service of groupon, if not in a good luck, we might make a lose, instead of profit.

  • gunnie on 03/03/2017 - 16:45

    I got a couple of these coupons in past deals.
    If the price is in a different currency, you still will be charged in that currency the $15 AUD will be converted and applied to the total.

    You also cannot mixed different currencies when using this code.

    In saying that, I had to return a few items I got from ebay. I am not sure but it depends on how the seller processes the refund. I once got a partial refund in which the amount stay in my paypal account. Another time I opted for a full refund. It will first get refunded into your paypal account but then will be taken out and refunded to ebay which means your money is lost.

    I did eventually get my refund but the constant phone calls to make sure that I will get it is much more headache than its worth. And the only way for you to get that refund is to buy another item so ebay can refund you on that. Just make sure you record all your reference numbers because you will be repeating yourself many times explaining your scenario. In the end it only took 8 weeks to get my money back.

    I got a PayPal refund from eBay when seller cancelled my last purchase with Groupon voucher AFTER checkout. Seller advised they did not have stock of the item. It took eBay about 4 weeks to process the refund once they confirmed they would do it (via live chat). Refunds obviously not a service priority.

  • delabosca on 04/03/2017 - 12:10

    been using groupon for over 2 years and have had no issues, got refunds when merchants have shut down
    Used the ebay voucher from groupon in the past, i personally use it for reputable buys
    like chemist warehouse or dog supplies like nexgard/interceptor comes in handy and a few savings

  • moneyhungry on 12/03/2017 - 09:28

    If I purchase a $100 voucher from groupon and my ebay item costs $110, can you pay the $10 difference with paypal at ebay checkout or does the item need to be exactly $100?

  • bwatt72 on 16/03/2017 - 01:19

    Yes how long are you waiting to get them im tempted to get a couple as have a few items to buy both overseas purchases so saving $15 off each order would be cool.
    Last time i got these did take a long time to get is it still same?
    I can't remember how long but was wsy longer than 4 days and had to chase them up

  • bwatt72 on 16/03/2017 - 02:26

    God sake was about to buy two of these vouchers right now had second thought go as far as paypal and did not follow through.
    Changed my mind and was going to get to find i can no longer get them as my limit of 2 have been used and it says on my order with groupon pending.
    But its not as payment was never completed with paypal.
    So will this pending thing go or just stick there?
    I have emailed them to explain so i can buy but maybe while i have not purchased any maybe a good things as sometimes i get bad vibes using groupon.
    Maybe will need to try live chat tomorrow to sort it out.
    There is always some issues with these guys.

  • bwatt72 on 16/03/2017 - 10:01

    Well they said need to eait a day see if order confirmed or not i know it not be as never finished the paypal purchase and for mow i can rebuy until pending goes lol.
    With a bit of luck deal ends and i dont get deal.
    The idea was get these as soon as so not only have i to wait till pending stops you then need to wait till vouchers are received i had hoped thurs and friday was two of them days but this pending crap delays more.
    I suppose once it clear i csn make up my mind if i really want to buy from these clowns.
    At present paying is never going to be taken as paypal part never got completed lol.

  • bwatt72 on 21/03/2017 - 00:02

    Can someone tell me if using these vouchers for overseas purchases if you gain much.
    I had some funds in my paypal,paid some funds from my bank and used this voucher which i paid $85 for which is valued at $100.
    Im a bit confused if i saved much or not by using the voucher?
    The item was €94.99 euro and shipping was €20 euro.
    I used my $85 aud voucher valued at $100 aud with $31.88 aud in my paypal balance and $34.23 aud i believe i had to pay from my bank account.

    Anyone have a clue if i gained by using this overseas with there exchange rates etc.
    Im sure when i did add to basket on my ebay without using any voucher to see what i be paying to paypal it was like $168 something.

    Am trying to figure out if i saved much on the $15 aud saving by using it overseas.

    Im thinking maybe these are best used in aud to gain maximum discount.

  • tryagain on 28/03/2017 - 13:51

    The 2-4 day wait is a bit of a PITA TBH, but it's still a good deal if you want something totalling close to $100. I just also try to avoid items with a higher chance of requiring a refund like "genuine" brand name products from China, to minimise having to try and sought out a refund through eBay that some have/haven't been able to get.
