Does it apply to only one purchase, or multiple purchases? (with $100 max. total discount). Thanks for the heads up.

Usually, I have found with eBay coupons like this...If you add multiple items to your cart and pay for the entire cart in one transaction, you can add the coupon code at checkout and it will take the percentage off the entire total. I assume this one will be no different...can't hurt to try. You should be able to see how much comes off the total before you confirm your payment.

[toledo_mudhen]

How is that you have access to what eBay is "planning" to do? Just curious.

[jfkheat]

I saw it posted on a couple other forums. I have no idea how they get the info but for the last few eBay discounts the advance info has been correct.

Thanks for the heads up! The coupons can really make the difference between a lousy deal and one well under the average selling price of a card.

Any idea if you buy something before and wait to pay until Sunday if that works?

I don't want to lead you astray (you probably just have to be sure the discount is, in fact, coming on Sunday), but I believe the answer is a resounding yes. The last time this discount was announced, I bought a card the night before (so someone else wouldn't be able to grab it before me when the coupon went live the next morning) and waited until the next afternoon to pay for it and the 15% came right off.

Thank you......appreciate the clarification.

Thanks. I will wait to pay for a few things I won today. We'll test it out on Sunday!

[eliotdeutsch]

Today’s coupon PERFECTGAME just worked for me.

[Exhibitman]

In anticipation of the 15% eBay coupon Sunday I have and will be putting a lot of my inventory on sale. You can use the coupon and compound the discounts. And remember you can win any auction that ends between now and Sunday and then wait to pay in bulk Sunday and use the coupon.

[GoCubsGo32]

Agreed PERFECTGAME somehow worked for me...

It works for cards??

[deeg23]

Yes! Good looks on the PERFECTGAME code... Just made a deal on a couple of cards.

Confirmed, it works.

[Promethius88]

Yep, it's double dipping day. Doesn't seem to work on everything card related but a vast majority. Couldn't get it to work on a case of card savers so those will wait until Sunday but still a ton of deals to be had out there today with the combo!!! Happy shopping....and saving everyone!!

[eliotdeutsch]

What’s the combo? What other code besides perfectgame?

[deeg23]

There’s 8% back in eBay bucks going on too

[eliotdeutsch]

How come I don’t get those??

You have to be signed up to receive eBay promotional emails. The eBay Bucks promos are invite only.

Even if you're signed up for eBay Bucks, the offer doesn't go out to everyone. I did not receive the 8% offer but our work account did and my coworker received it as well on his personal account. It's hit and miss. As in they usually hit right after you buy something expensive.

[trdcrdkid]

The PERFECTGAME code just worked for me on a couple of T210s, and I got 8% eBay bucks. Woohoo!

Maybe a dumb question, but does the unsuspecting seller 'eat' the 15% off when someone uses the coupon or does Ebay somehow credit them the amount they lost in the sale? Just wondering. Thanks.

The seller receives their full asking price, ebay covers the 15% coupon. A seller has no idea if a coupon was used or not.....neither does VCP. Definitely a "loss-leader" promo for ebay to drive traffic to their site for the day.

EBay coughs up the difference. Think of it as profit-sharing or an advertising expense for them. Seller gets full freight on their sale price.

[nsaddict]

It states 7am pst

[sterlingfox]

Not working!

[robkas68]

not working for me either

[Marchillo]

The last two days you were able to buy sports cards with 15% off. Yesterday actually included more options (I bought non-sports and supplies) as I bought my cards on Friday.

My buddy and I talked last night. He had a ton of items in his cart waiting for an invoice today. While these heads up coupons have been spot on lately, we both figured it seemed strange they’d offer the same coupon 1 day later. So he checked out what he could (40 item limit).

For everyone’s sake I hope this comes through. But there were opportunities over the past two days.

[BengoughingForAwhile]

Has anyone tried today's (12/16) promo code PDECKTHE HALLS on sports cards yet?

I woke up at 2:45 am Eastern today and bought what I could before the 15% ended at 3am thinking this one might not come today. Just seemed strange they would have a code that ended at 3am and a new one a few hours later. I was hoping to buy more today however.

[VintageVinnie]

The e bay offer expired at 2:59 this morning east coast time..(11:59 Pacific Time)... I had a '54 Mays in my cart and dozed off last night and missed it. ouch!

[robkas68]

does not work when I tried

[aconte]

There are auctions ending today that I would bid on if presented a 15%
off coupon. Also, a card I would like just got listed this morning and 15%
off would bring it close to a normal price.

C'mon ebay don't let us down....lol.....

[Rich Falvo]

Damn. I almost made an offer on something this morning, thinking the coupon would be working later. Glad I held off.

Just worked for me on a 1955 Armour coin, thanks.

[VintageVinnie]

What code did you use?

[k.crist]

Darn, PDECKTHEHALLS is not working for me. Picked up a pretty pricey card hoping to use that. Anyone else know of a code that’s confirmed working today?

It doesn't work for me on a sportscard.

[keithsky]

Today's coupon Sunday the 15% off is just supposed to be for Home and Outdoors stuff that's probably why your sports cards and memorabilia stuff isn't working

[bgar3]

Not sure why the differences, but PDECKTHEHALLS just worked for me on a sports card.

Perfect if you're looking for a Babe Ruth bird bath.

[k.crist]

I just got off the phone with eBay and they said that the reason the code wasn’t working for me was because I bought an item through the “best offer” option. They said the code will only work through through an auction or buy it now purchase.

Does that sound correct? Wish I would have known that prior to making an offer..

This does not sound correct. I put a card in my cart like I’m buying it and the code doesn’t work. It might be the way items are categorized by the seller on the few that are working. Once there was a 15% off with the minor restrictions that didn’t work for me because the seller categorized the baseball card binders under coins and money which was a non-inclusive item. His other listings for the same exact binders in different quantities worked because of the category he used.
