eBay Hourly 'Mega Deals' Today 6pm-10pm

Moved to Forum: Original Link

For better or for worse they're back. Runs from 6pm-10pm tonight. One deal every hour.

No idea if it'll be the same controversial format as last time, but I'm hoping there's some good savings to be made.

    It's been a long time since I've seen any bargains on eBay using coupons.

    • the ozbargain community would think otherwise.

    Still dizzy from the last ride.

  • What was the controversy from the last time they did this?

    • Well - price-jacking complaints happen every time Ebay does a deal.
      I suspect the OP is referring more to the customer dissatisfaction at jumping in on a deal, and then Ebay increasing the discount in a different time period…
      But I could be wrong.

        Yeah, that's what I was referring to. I personally didn't mind it. I understood the game I was playing with eBay. Do I buy on this discount, or gamble for a bigger one, but risk no stock?

        I thought it was fine.

    • It seemed poorly executed and kinda insulting to consumers. Felt like a rapper making it rain 2c pieces expecting people to go crazy.

  • eBay are starting to look a little desperate

  • What if I click "Buy it Now" before the deals start - will I lock in the item and be safe from prize jacking but get to choose which coupon to go for? (assuming they do rounds of coupons again)

    • you would have locked the price in, but what if the discount/promo doesn't target that item? cancel the sale and mess the seller around? or just go ahead and purchase?

  • I got a couple of good deals out of last time.
    Prices from digidirect and their eBay stores were the same.
    Used the 15% off code on a used lens and some other stuff I had in my cart.
    If a 15% rocks up tonight I'll buy a couple of other things as well.

    • Yeah, I picked up a Nintendo switch cheap and a 10" Groot Pop Vinyl :) Could probably find some more useful stuff too if I looked hard enough!

      • Lockdude, how much did you pay for the Nintendo Switch?? The grey or neon version?
        Cheers!
