I got the offer this time around on Gold card
Has anybody recently purchased a third party gift card on EBay? I purchased a Menards gift card recently and was charged sales tax. I purchased the gift card at a discount but when sales tax was added, it took the cost over the value of the gift card — which defeats the purpose of even buying a gift card on EBay. This is obviously illegal as sales tax shouldn’t be charged on gift cards because you are also paying tax on the item that you purchase with the gift card. I complained to somebody at EBay but they were basically clueless. I guess that I won’t be buying any more gift cards on EBay.
Same problem with prepaid phone plans. Maybe they are subject to sales tax in other states, but I know they aren’t in mine. Unfortunately, the 25% off Black Friday deal was only available on eBay, so I grudgingly bought it anyway.
Would this work on electronic gift cards, vouchers, coupons, etc?
Had it on my card before wasn’t targeted this time
Pretty sure my deal use to say could be used up to 3 times, but now I do not see that, only one time. Wonder if they changed the terms at some point. I could be remembering incorrectly but I am quite positive that I remember it saying 3 times since I told myself I would have to find three different items to buy at the time.
Same here. They definitely changed it.
Wow, can’t believe they changed it silently. Super sketchy shit.
Mine always said a one-time $5 statement credit. I took a screenshot of it when I added it.
Mine also said one time but I saw and added it too late, not sure what it said earlier.
I added three things to my cart to get over $15. All three posted as separate charges but got the $5 credit already.
Got this on my Gold card but not Platinum or blue cash.
Looks like ebay does not officially sell any gift cards.
Instantly tracked when i use eBay GC and my Amex ($16) to purchase something. My CC was added to eBay’s payment system rather than PayPal.
both are available and are now completely separate
