Purchasing Coupons from Ebay – Policy Change!!

by


Ebay Coupons
Ebay has a new policy that will be in effect shortly for buying/selling coupons. I wanted to give you all a heads up ahead of time.

Here is what the policy looks like:

Policy overview

You can sell valid manufacturer’s coupons on eBay, but there are a few limitations. Please see the guidelines below to learn more about the limits on the sale of coupons.

Make sure your listing follows these guidelines. If it doesn’t, it may be removed, and you may be subject to a range of other actions, including restrictions of your buying and selling privileges and suspension of your account.

What are the guidelines?

Allowed

  • You may sell up to $100 or 25 valid, unexpired, original coupons per month. (See additional information below for more guidelines.)

Restricted

  • Multi-quantity listings: You can’t sell more than 25 coupons in a single listing. The allowed 25 coupons per month include multi-quantity listings.

  • Make sure you clearly state in your description how many coupons you’re selling. If we can’t tell how many coupons are offered, the listing violates our policy.

Not allowed

  • Coupons for “free” products: You can’t sell coupons for “free” products. This restriction includes coupons for free items, or coupons where the coupon holder buys a quantity of items at one price, and receives additional items for free.

  • Electronic “scanned” coupons: All coupons sold through eBay must be physical coupons printed on paper, not coupons that can be sent electronically to the buyer to be printed. Also, to reduce the potential for coupon fraud, don’t include unaltered scans of coupons in their listings that could be copied, printed, and redeemed in stores.

    Note: The sale of scanned or photocopied coupons may violate federal copyright laws, and sellers of unlawful items like these could face prosecution under federal law. We don’t allow the sale of these kinds of coupons.

  • Coupons for recalled items: Coupons for items that have been recalled by the manufacturer can’t be listed on eBay.

  • Recalled coupons: Coupons that have been recalled by the manufacturer can’t be listed on eBay.
