During Happy Hour, use your mobile to buy an item on eBay.com.au and also pay for it with PayPal, and you'll receive 50% off the purchase price, including shipping cost, up to a maximum refund of $50.

Be among the first 5,000 to register between 12 noon Wednesday 22nd and 12 noon Thursday 23rd September AEST. Also, make sure you have both a PayPal email address and an eBay User ID. And if you miss out on Mobile Happy Hour you'll still go in the draw to win one of five $1,000 prizes* to be paid to your PayPal account.

  That particular listing ends at 8:52 PM on Saturday; with this Happy Hour promotion you need to both buy and pay for the item on Friday between 12 noon and 1 PM.
- jobski on 24/09/2010 - 10:59
  
  Max rebate is $50, so basically the optimum price for a good deal is $100 (with shipping) :)

  I'll give you $1000000000 if you get THAT Drobo S with THIS deal ;)

Could you just start a listing on ebay, buy it yourself and pocket the $50 minus whatever paypal/ebay fees… you'd still end up with about $40 right?

Hey all, does anyone know if this applies to multiple items in the same purchase?
Say there's a PS3 controller for $50, and I make the quantity 2, the total purchase is $100. Do I get 50% on the whole thing, or just one of the items?
I read through the full T&C's but couldn't see anything about it.
cheers :)
John Dough on 21/09/2010 - 16:19

This will no doubt be abused by many, and by the time Wed rolls in, I doubt if their website will even let you log in, it will be that busy.
I will be trying though ;) + from me!

Oh and the OP might want to adjust the title, as it does not have to be under $100 as far as I can see.
- ang911 on 21/09/2010 - 21:43
  
  I think they wrote that because above $100, you don't get 50% off anymore….cos the max is $50…it's just the way they worded the post.
dreamscene on 21/09/2010 - 17:15

Do you guys think, all 5000 will go within 6 hours? I will get home at 6pm, do you think I will still be able to get this by 6pm?

  They will not even last 6 minutes

    at 12:08 it seems to be out
- [Deactivated] on 21/09/2010 - 17:22
  
  No chance that they'll last 6 hours. I give it 20 minutes tops, but I agree with anthony that they'll likely be gone even quicker than that.
  - sparkles on 22/09/2010 - 08:54
    
    If the website doesn't collapse, I think it will only take a couple of minutes tops for the 5000 to be allocated.

Does the refund include the cost of postage? probably not just want to clarify.

Kuma on 21/09/2010 - 17:36

Yes, The refund can include shipping price. I think it is 50% off total price.

curiousman on 21/09/2010 - 21:20
so:

are we allowed to make purchases from ebay international(aus'n+non ausn)

is it 50% off the total bill or does it only apply for one single purchase

Must it be purchased through a mobile?(Will an iPod touch with wifi be eligible for this deal)?

Thanks

If anyone successfully registers and wants some half price iTunes credit my bf has just listed two lots of 2x$50 itunes specifically to (hopefully) take advantage of the Mobile Happy Hour crowd…so essentially $50 for $100 worth of itunes credit….you could even buy them and then resell them on Ebay again and make a profit….

    Sorry.
Josh81 on 22/09/2010 - 03:50

Please change the title of this bargain. Your title says "on purchases up to $100". As far as i can tell, purchases of $101 and over are eligible. It's just that the 50% cash back is capped at $50.
Title is misleading.

Do i have to be on the mobile version of ebay.com.au for ebay to recognise that i've used my mobile? Cause i usually load up the regular ebay.com.au on my phone.

There's an item i'm looking to buy which ends tomorrow at 2pm. Shame. Will have to look for something else to buy, oh well :P

I got an email from 9289 store, advertising this ebay promo, and saying that they will list anything you request, on ebay for you. I wonder what would happen if i approached other online stores and asked them if they would list something for me. Not sure if this is in breach of the promo rules, but it seems pretty underhanded.

  How bout make that purchase at 2pm 2moro (click on Buy It Now)? But make your payment during the happy hour on Friday? Would that still work?
Cralis on 22/09/2010 - 07:04

You have to "register" between 12 and 1. But … I already have the ebay app on my iPhone, as well as the PayPal one. So, am I excluded?

morini on 22/09/2010 - 09:17

not bad, but it'll be difficult to get in
Raz84 on 22/09/2010 - 09:27

sorry for asking this, but does this mean you need to register via mobile, or just purchase via mobile?

ie. can we register from a pc, but purchase from a mobile
- anthony on 22/09/2010 - 10:07

    - anthony on 22/09/2010 - 11:47
      
      Relative common sense.
      Nowhere does it state you need to use a phone to register.
      It only says you need to use a phone to make the purchase
      - cj88 on 22/09/2010 - 11:48
        
        @anthony: Just checking. Don't want to miss out ;)
        
        anthony on 22/09/2010 - 11:53
        
        @cj88: No problem :-)
        
        I could be wrong but if they wanted people to register on their phone they would have stated it just like they have for making the purchase.
HS10 on 22/09/2010 - 11:44

Why does my countdown say theres 2 hours left =/ Im from WA, and its 2 hours left til 12; but in the eastern states, wouldn't that mean its 12 very soon =/
- Trance N Dance on 22/09/2010 - 11:45
  
  I think the countdown timer is based on your computer's clock
  - anthony on 22/09/2010 - 11:47
    
    Which if it is is very unfair on those not in the eastern time zone
  - HS10 on 22/09/2010 - 11:49
    
    it actually isn't, i just changed the time to sydneys timezone, and still nope =/
    - Trance N Dance on 22/09/2010 - 11:52
      
      I'm in Sydney and clock says 11:52 and timer says 8mins

        HS10 on 22/09/2010 - 11:55
        
        @HS10: aight figured it out! dont change the time zone! but change the time manually to 2 hours a head from anyone in WA.
        
        anthony on 22/09/2010 - 11:57
        
        @HS10: It shouldn't make a difference.
        At 12PM AEST the page will change so anyone who refreshes it will see the new page.
        
        The time is only for the countdown timer which has been badly written.
