How to use the eBay coupon code: step-by-step

Redeeming an eBay coupon is straightforward. You just need to follow these steps:

1. Choose an eBay coupon you wish to use and copy its eBay promo code.
2. Open the eBay site and shop.
3. Place the items you want to buy in your cart.
4. Proceed to the checkout section.
5. Paste the eBay coupon code into the promo code box to activate the offer.

But what can I save on with an eBay coupon?

There are usually plenty of different eBay coupons available covering different types of products and offering both dollar and percentage discounts. Some of the best ones recently have been:

• eBay coupon code: get $5 off sitewide at eBay
• eBay promo code: 20% off on top sneaker brands
• eBay discount code: take 25% off luxury looks at eBay.

What can I do if my eBay coupon code is not working?

Well, don’t panic for a start – there probably isn’t anything wrong. Just make sure you’ve checked the following:

• Is your eBay coupon still valid? Most eBay coupon codes are time-limited and won’t work after their expiration date.
• Have you copied and pasted your eBay coupon in full? Even if only one number or letter is wrong, or even in the wrong case, then the code won’t work.
• Is the eBay coupon restricted to certain types of product? If so, you’ll need to make sure you’ve complied.

Are there other ways to save at eBay or customer-specific coupons?

Look out for “best offer” tags

It is the seller who determines whether you can use an eBay promo code or an eBay coupon code on their items, but they can also do other things to boost sales.

For example, a seller can add the "best offer" tag on an eBay listing hoping to invite more buyers who are looking to spend less. This "best offer" tag also actually opens room for bargains and negotiations that can either drive the price up or down. Usually, the sellers play fair, so you can often get a good offer without even using an eBay coupon code. Negotiations sometimes happen via private messaging, so be sure to protect your personal details while trading online.

Black Friday sales at eBay

Sellers are generally looking for ways to boost sales, and Black Friday is no exception. So you can look forward to numerous discounts courtesy of eBay coupons on goods sold on the platform. Remember to check out The Daily Beast Coupons for the latest eBay promo codes

Can I get an eBay student discount?

Since the eBay marketplace is largely composed of independent merchants, the best way to get a student discount is to write to specific sellers and ask. Currently, eBay does not offer general student discount codes, but many merchants on the platform have been known to give students special prices.

Additional eBay coupons for students

As a student, you can always use general eBay coupons and discount codes to help you save even more. Usually, coupons and promo codes from eBay can get you 15-25% off, and The Daily Beast team has seen seasonal codes that offer 80% off qualifying items.

Is there an eBay military discount available?

Every seller on eBay sets their own discount policy, so there is a very good chance that you can get a military discount. If you are a current or retired member of the military, the best thing to do is contact the specific merchant you are looking to purchase from. You can also combine any military discounts from merchants with other existing eBay promo codes.

Are there eBay coupon codes for new customers?

Thanks to eBay coupon codes for new customers, you can save $5 when you buy an item that costs $5.01 or more. This code applies to purchases that offer free shipping too. You can use eBay coupon codes for first orders as well as codes for new sellers. New sellers can list items for free each month and only pay the final value fees on the items that sell.

eBay coupon codes for existing customers

No matter what you want to buy, you can find it on eBay and save with coupon codes. Once you register for a new account, the auction site will occasionally send you codes to save 15% off an item in your cart.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

Can I get an eBay free shipping code?

Because eBay itself doesn’t actually ship or sell products, they aren’t in a position to provide free shipping. A pain, we know. But, usually you can negotiate with the seller of whatever you’re buying and figure out a shipping solution that works for you.

Can I get an eBay gift card?

Yep. If you need to get someone a gift but really don’t know what to get them, then an eBay gift card is an excellent solution. You can buy them online and put as much or as little money on them as you like before gifting them either in person or online.

Update on Coronavirus: Do I have to expect restrictions when shopping on eBay?

Shopping with eBay makes it easy for you to find everything from sports memorabilia and lighting for your home to clothing and electronics. The Coronavirus changed the way this site does business, but The Daily Beast has answers to all the questions you have about how eBay will work in this trying time.

Can I still order online from eBay, despite Coronavirus?

You can still order anything from eBay as the site allows users to list items at fixed prices or in an auction format. The Buy It Now listings let you buy something for the price the seller sets. Please note that individual sellers may indicate a slower shipping time than normal.

Has the return policy of eBay changed because of Coronavirus?

You can still return an item as long as you contact the seller. eBay lets you make returns if the item doesn't match the original description, you receive the wrong item or it arrives damaged.

Is eBay offering contactless delivery due to Coronavirus?

Sellers who use eBay can ship their items through different services, including the United States Postal Office. You can choose which shipping method you want and let the seller know about any preferences that you have. Most delivery drivers can leave items on your porch or by your front door to avoid contact with you.
