And I'm still super miffed about it.

Also waiting for another one to come along but don't want to miss the existing discounts.

This sucks.

For reference

You lied to me, FlawlesslyFatal.  There wasn't another one  :cry:

 
AND OF COURSE THE ITEM I BOUGHT IS $6 CHEAPER AND THERE'S ANOTHER $15 OFF COUPON A WEEK AFTER I BROKE DOWN AND MADE MY PURCHASE! GRAAAAUGH!

 
I miss these all the time, even when I'm actually here.

They just seem to show up at the worst times usually.

I've always spent tons of time trying to figure out how to utilize the code, and scrambling to find things that will work, or talking with sellers, etc.

So much work...

I can't believe the way they do those, middle of the day and short usage windows. It's like they seriously are catering to scalpers, resellers, and SlickDeals people (but I repeated myself...) who sit in front of their computers all day trolling for deals without a day job.

 
From what I've noticed, these offers show up:
  • at least once a month for most, if not all, months,
  • in the last third of the month,
  • for a single day, and
  • end at 6 PM PST at the earliest.
If you are anticipating purchasing something on eBay, just keep an eye out starting the 20th of any month.

This deal isn’t a glitch or limited to anything other than a time limit. Why such the hostility? I don’t get in on all the deals but this one is simple. Sounds to me like you had too much salt on your popcorn.

They send out emails usually within an hour of the coupon going live and if you have the app, the notifications pop up on your phone. I don't think I've ever seen one completely random/out of the blue. You gotta enable their marketing emails on the website for emails, and enable notifications on your phone.

 
I do get their emails in one of my junk mail accounts, but haven't enabled the phone apps. I guess I'll have to do that when I'm looking to buy. Thanks.
