YMMV 4% to 8% eBay Bucks depending on item price

If you are an eBay Bucks rewards member, check your emails/messages for a potential new bonus bucks offer. This may be targeted, so I have no way of knowing how many people get it. You must manually activate the offer via the email/message before you earn the bonus. The bonus depends on the item’s purchase price. Items over $150, get 8%. Items between $100 and $150, get 6%. And items between $50 and $100, get 4%. The percentage depends on an item’s price, not the order total. The usual rewards percentage is 2%. The usual terms and exclusions apply. Offer ends Tuesday 11/15/16 at 11:59pm pacific time…

A good place to look for ideas are the eBay Deals along with the Trending Deals (shows only 100 trending deals, less overwhelming to look at than their main deals page). There’s also a dedicated search box there that searches only the Deals, not everything else on eBay.
