Are these US only again by any chance?

I used all of the last three. Although the two fixed value ones I did use on US$ auctions.

Just used the 10% coupon above on a UK listed auction, in GBP and it worked fine. About to use the $5 one, but it's on a US$ item again ...

Any idea when these are good until? Got a big payment coming up shortly so hopefully it will still be valid in a week or so time :)

A quick Googlesearch finds a message board that says they expire 18th December - but I have no way of verifying that any further.

Interestingly, some sites also have people saying that they were able to use the C11-GIFTGUIDE code (10% off) several times.

Seems these are sadly only for eBay auctions... damn... could use them right now for something else instead :(

Yep, I'm afraid they are.

It does make sense if you think about it - there's no way that they could afford to give 10% off otherwise, because they would just lose huge amounts of money.

But since the amount of revenue they will recieve from the ebay final value fees, and the Paypal fees together will come to almost 10% of the total then the amount it actually costs them to run the promotion is practically nil.

If you are going to use the coupons, bear in mind also that 10% (and the $50 / $100 minimum values) apply only to the item value. Not to the shipping costs, or any additional seller fees.

I tried to use the 10% off twice, and it didn't work for me.

Sadly, I just barely missed the chance to use the first batch of codes, but I at least saved 2.15 with this new one. :)

Even though the first batch of codes are "expired" they still seem to work for some people, including me. Just give them a try, they might still work ;)

C11-GIFTGUIDE 10% off


Was only able to use this once. Paypal rejected it the second time. Wonder why some people were allowed to use it multiple times? What did they do differently?

Still I've recently won 4-5 items from the same seller and the final total is going to be over $200 so I can use the 10% off coupon for that at least...

I had wanted to use it for an upcoming 700 Euro odd payment but I guess I'll just take it like a man there...

Well, the max saving is $25 anyway, so using it on $200 worth of goods will save you almost as much as using it on 700 Euros worth ...

Coupon is good on a single item only.

Then how's it gonna work when I pay for all the items at the same time then? :P

Either way, if I can apply multiple coupons I'll stick the $15 off one on as well..

I am going to buy the Advanced guide from DP, but I found no place to put any of the codes in when purchasing it, why can't I enter codes through that?

Is this for ebay transactions only?

As mentioned above, yes it's eBay wins only.
