Where’s the eBay coupons? 5 5

[Bird]

Made a sale already, countered an offer and told him about the coupon!

[1Cool]

Well - I did my usual 20 minutes of searching and will be spending my coupon on mailing supplies.  Good luck with the searches guys!

[Callaway29]

I've practically been begging for one of these, but am now coming off a spending bender...so I'm painfully resisting. Life is cruel...

In today's world there really is no better coupon with the 15% off and up to $100 off.  Great way to grab a book you have been looking for.

Didn't see one so started my own, now I see it's been known about  didn't know that it was already mentioned in this thread

Just allowed me to use this coupon on books I bought yesterday that hadn't checked out with yet.  I had a feeling Tuesday was the day.  It always seems to be Tuesday?  Maybe check historically what day the old coupons were usually on.

I just sent a few offers to watchers, referencing the coupon. We shall see.

No smart phone here (flip phones all the way!) ... does that mean I can't use it?

You can't use it but really no bid deal since you should be saving up for a smart phone.

Love it when I send an offer to a seller and they decline with no counter. Do you not like money!!??

It's got to be a really low offer for me to decline without a counter offer.  If the books is at $250 and they offer $100 then I reject and let them come up a bunch before I bother.

 I usually set up automatic declines for ultra low offers. I think it's always a good idea to send a counter, even if it's far from the buyers initial offer - You never know!

Just grabbed a GA book I have been eyeing.. guy wanted 795 two offers in and he took 450... and add the coupon bot it for 390!

I use to do that but it always irritated me that a book had five low ball offers and I never knew the book had that much action. 

I think a reject is better then dropping the price on a $250 book by $2 and sending them a $248 counter offer.

As a buyer.. I prefer a counter to at least know someone is negotiable.

Don't forget you can add a note to your counter/reject...that way, regardless of the specifics, they know there's a reasonable human being on the other end...

I just put in an offer on a nice Tom Grummett commission of Robin.  It is listed for $334 obo, I offer $250...he declines.  Apparently my $250 is a lowball, and not worth responding to?

Now I am looking for an ASM slab, but can't find anything that I consider right.

Sounds like a lot of work to respond to all the low, low ball offers.  is an auto reject better then a reject?

I'd respond to an offer of $250 on a $334 item.  I tend to basically auto reject offers like the $100 on a $250 item.

That's is what I thought.  Maybe we could have met at $275 ish.  Oh well, back to the searching.  At worst, my wife wants me to get flea and tick stuff for the dog......yaaaaay

Auto-reject def. has it's place. I HAVE set it too high before and later-on regretted it after I saw some of the, in retrospect, offers that could have morphed into a deal...
