Ways to save at eBay

Look for Typos

When an eBay listing contains a typo, it won’t be shown in relevant searches. While you might question the validity of a seller who can’t get their own ad copy right, sometimes these really are nothing more than harmless mistakes.

You can use dedicated websites like FatFingers and Bay Crazy to find these kinds of items. They’ll highlight hundreds of listings which won’t appear in regular searches.

The money-saving aspect? Well, with nobody (or very few people) able to easily spot an item, there’s a high chance there’ll be no bidding taking place. That leaves you to swoop in at the last minute and pounce.

Use Alerts

Setting up alerts means you’re kept up-to-date with all activity on a selected item for sale. This gives you the chance to monitor prices and bidding, helping you make a decision accordingly.

What’s more, you can even go as far as to save certain searches. That means when a specific item is listed for the first time, you’ll be sent a notification telling you it’s now available.

This can be a great help if you want to get an early bid in, or just want to buy it outright before anyone else can get involved.

Last-Second Bidding

Waiting for the last minute to bid on an item is a tried and tested favourite of shrewd eBay traders.

Leaving your bid until the last minute means the price of an item won’t skyrocket throughout the time it’s listed. Hopefully, if nobody else is bidding, you’ll also be able to guarantee you come out victorious - as there won’t be time for anyone else to match your last-second price.

eBay Discount Codes on Bids

Your discount code will only be applied once you have successfully bid on an item, and are in the process of paying for it. The discount amount will not be taken off your bid, though.

To reiterate, that means when your final bid goes through, the price will not take the coupon’s value into account. But don’t worry, adding your code during payment will see the dollars drop away.

eBay Discount Codes on Different Products

This depends on the voucher in question. Some discount codes will only allow you to save money on certain brands or products. Others will deduct a set amount from your overall shop. Make sure to read the terms and conditions before using your code.
