Our Verdict
I don’t usually get Bucks offers, but I got this one, maybe everyone got it? If you did get it, this is an excellent offer. In a way it’s better than the 15% and 20% coupons that we’ve seen since this offer works on a whopping $3,333 worth of purchases ($500 earn), so long as you split them up to earn less than $100 per transaction.
This Bucks offer will stack beautifully with a 20% off coupon at select sellers.
dammit dude! i got this stupid crap:
Earn 15% eBay Bucks!
Spend $150 on Collectibles or your other favorite categories to earn extra cash.
hmm. is this the same thing? not sure. dummy purchases dont work.
PS. some crap i bought during the other promos are now exactly 15% marked up higher. fucking wack. i knew that shit would happen. not on all items obv but still. i checked target and Best Buy items too. some are same and some are slightly higher. depends wat u buy.
I was considering ordering a tv and then add a hue motion controller and 2 hue dimmer swtches. The ebay bucks at 15% would only apply to the tv. The additional items in the same cart were at the measly low eBay bucks amount it usually goes for. 🙁
don’t Ebay bucks expire in a short time?
Can we buy gift cards with ebay bucks?
ebay bucks expire within 30 days of quarter end when they given. So they would expire beginning of May and you could use them beginning of April. You can buy regular gift cards but not eBay gift cards.
got the email 15%
The direct link didn’t work for me but I had the banner on my homepage and could activate it there. Nothing about the 8% bucks, though… just 15%.
Looks like there might be multiple offers, meaning multiple direct links. Here’s the one for 15% bucks only

It’s a better deal assuming you can find that much stuff you want to buy. Also, a discount is better than eBay Bucks since it comes off the top.
I only got this on one of my ebay accounts
do you earn eBay bucks on purchases made with eBay GC’s?
yes
I got it! Thanks DOC. Is the 15% for 1 single item that’s >$150 or does it apply if I buy several things to make it >$150?
When I added 2 $100 items to the cart, it gave me 15% instead of 8%. So it is apparently based on the order total, not per item. But I did not actually complete the order.
Stacks nicely with coupon code PRETTYDAY 20% off of specific items:
https://www.ebay.com/rpp/6508
Interesting thing I noticed with stacking the coupon is that you earn the eBay bucks on the amount before the PRETTYDAY coupon is applied, even after applying the coupon. For e.g. a $150 purchase comes to $150- $30 (PRETTYDAY) – $22.5 (eBAY bucks) =$97.5.
I saw that! Cool!
This looks like a decent deal together with the ebay bucks. Its sold through ebags which also has a buy 2 items get 1 20% off. Tax kills this for me though
