Oh hang on 3x ?

Is that the same code to be used three times or did you mean personal user only codes?

[HighlandTiger]

Lol sorry HH. Your right. Don't listen to me, I was getting too excited with all this cheap gold floating about

[Pipers]

My wife has made her first Gold purchase, She said well if its at that price I could sell it for £180 to you.

[watchesandwhisky]

Does anyone have a link to the full terms and conditions of this offer? can it be used multiple times? auctions? ect.

[HighlandTiger]

One use per PayPal account. Discount does not include postage costs.

[watchesandwhisky]

Ok cheers mate.

[HelpingHands]

Gold was going down today before we started buying. We defo caused that up spike.

[Guest]

Says no balance left on this redemption code

[watchesandwhisky]

Damn same here, looks like the funs over:( Was just about to get a second from my other account..

 

Oh well this has taught me one important thing, the importance of available funds..No matter how tempting deals might be never run yourself dry (like I often do lol)

[Scuzzle]

I lost my code as well,I stuck it in just to see what the total would be but decided against it so never went through with the purchase then when I tried again got the message that the redemption code was used.

[Danny-boy]

Shame that ended so quickly.

I guess a £50 saving per person would expend a sizeable budget quite quickly.

Glad I got my order in, it's not too often you get chance of a sovereign under spot.

[watchesandwhisky]

Yep, I doubt they expected people to be buying sovereigns like no tommorow

[Cornishfarmer]

It's gone. Spent a while trying to deal on 3 pandas then wouldn't work

That sucks.

The party may not yet be over. Since the code would not work for me I have spoken to one of the online help agents. Before I could say anything they knew what I was calling about. They informed me that they are going to produce an alternative code that will either be sent out by email or put up on the home page of the site soon (yeah right). I was also told to try the code again in an hour or two as they working to resolve the issue. 

 

Personally I do not believe it. When I asked if Ebay had run out of funds on the offer because of the amount of people using I was told - "No. Ebay has not run out of money. Try again in an hour or two." The wait was worth it just for that. 

 

If they do send an alternative code I will let you know.

Sellers have an ounce of gold at £900 ish to cover the EBay fees but a 20% discount makes this around £720 which is a good but under spot so I know what I'm getting if this code does start working again.

[watchesandwhisky]

I think the last code was a max of £50 savings.

Maximum discount is £50. At 20% the most you can spend is £250 to pay £200. Any more and its just a £50 off voucher. 

[Scuzzle]

Typical, down to a 1/4 oz coin then.

[HighlandTiger]

This promo isn't really costing Ebay much, Of the 20% , 10% is covered by the seller fees, along with a few more pence for various listing fees, Paypal fees add another 3% or 4% into the pot, So basically, of the 20% Ebay and Paypal are only needing to cover about 5% of the sale, with it being max refund of £50, the most they will lose per transaction is £12.50. But don't forget there may be lots of transactions above the £250 mark, (plenty of non PM fans will be buying electronics etc), so that 5% could be whittled down to a smaller percentage..

Trying to contact ebay and estimated wait time is 59 Mins,!!
