Stop the Way to Fab sale fraud show- I know it's a scam

[nakul.prabhu]

I applied the coupon of 100% off on one item, twice. Once on 14th March night and once on 15th March morning. The coupon was applied successfully but the payment doesn't succeed. The item cost was Rs.279. And so the payment I had to make was Rs.0. According to you, I should click on Pay Now button to confirm the order at Rs.0. Which is where I think the cheap tricks kick in. It fails always! Giving an error as "Service Unavailable". Immediately, I try the 20% coupon, apply it and press on Pay Now. Oh Wow, it proceeds this time. Whom are you bluffing Ebay? How can the 100% off coupon fail and this 20% off coupon proceed? I've realised that the whole promotion is a scam, and you guys do not want to actually give off stuff even to loyal customers like me. Lost faith in Ebay by a considerable margin.
And to add to this, this happened with my brother as well. He too got the same error for the 100% coupons. I'm pretty sure we were within the top 40 to apply and confirm it. This is what I hate about a few companies. They run cheap scams! This is no different than those advertisements on TV, which sell stuff which promise make you taller or slimmer etc.

The item I was trying to buy was a "Woofer Cable Stereo 3.5mm Male to 2 RCA Male 100% Pure Copper Cable Audio Cable" costing Rs.279. Really cheap of ebay, really! Sad.. It's RIP ebay for me now.

It's TRUE,THEY ARE NEVER ACCEPT THESE COUPONS 100% 80% 40% AND JUST ACTING WEB SITE IS BUSY..... THEY ARE PLAYING GAME WITH CUSTOMER'S. PLEASE STOP THIS TYPE OF CHEATINGS.... PLEASE WAKEUP EVERY ONE DON'T WASTE YOU'RE TIME IN EBAY FOR THIS KIND OF OFFER'S.

Totally agree with you Nakul Prabhu.
I myself tried twice.
Struck at "Service Unavailable"
Bullshit stuff from ebay.
Site starts to work like IRCTC.
Why dont they show list of winner when they are saying the coupen is exhausted.
Cheap marketting gimmicks from ebay. They tried to be like Flipkart which recently did the same on its anniversary. But flipkart sale was genuine and not like this cheap stuff.

[saurabhtandel]

same thing happened with me. I was wondering why I am not getting 100%, 80%, 40% off . But when i applied 20% or 10% off coupon they worked.
ebay.in we caught you. Worst business trick.

[nakul.prabhu]

And all of our shouting is falling on deaf ears. Seems like ebay will not even care to reply.

THIS IS A COMPLETE FAKE PROMO!
Not even a single voucher works. Only 10% off worked once but THATS NOT A BIG DEAL as they already have their margins

[mrrahul2010]

No,

I was able to get the 80% coupon n the stikcer.

Order Total Rs. 399.00
Gift Voucher Discount (6B6D7HDOQ0) Rs. 319.20
Amount Paid (ICICI Bank online bank transfer) Rs. 79.80


This is real and not fake

I too doubt this WTF sale is actually a WTF. Tablets being offered with huge discount are part of this scam. Item is described as NEW but seller says it will be shipped with charger only, nothing mentioned about standard accessories like head set, usb cable etc.

I doubt the discount being offered here is actually the money waived off for accessories which u will not get anyways.

I applied the coupons 5 times (2 times 100%, 1 time 80% and 2 times 40%), each time it got applied but when i clicked PAY NOW it always gave '1.1 service unavailable error'

This is really CHEAP TRICK Ebay. I've been ur customer since 2008 and also have bought items more than 4 lacs.

I must say the Quality n the service has drastically gone down 😞

Shame Shame EBAY
