What a saving!!!

I was browsing Ebay this afternoon and came across this huge saving! I can't believe people are just willing to sell these things so cheap! Check it out:

PMSL! A voucher code which entitles you to £1 off of the new XBOX 360 game Alan Wake (excellent game by the way) for just... wait for it... 99p! WOW!

I agree, that is not a bargain ... but I still have a big box of "plastic rocks with holes in them" and apple corers which are great value at £5 for the pair, inc p&p ... and I have found some melamine salad servers, the ideal thing for the "man who has everything", to add to the bundle as a free gift.

Hundreds of satisfied customers will tell you I always offer great value ...

Maybe their website is the one listed in the description and they're going for the free (or almost free) advertising knowing no one will buy the code?

Yes you're right - the whois for that domain matches up with their eBay contact details.

Bit crafty, I'm sure they'd do better if they actually made it worth people buying the code :lol:

You don't get this, do you?

They probably get the listing free IF it starts at 99p - also, you can make an offer, and I'd bet they'd accept an offer of 1p.

There's a reason for all things - sell a £1 coupon on eBay for 1p, and THE COUPON can legitimately direct the purchaser away from eBay to make the purchase direct from their website.

Yes, it is advertising on eBay - but it is also a clever way to sell on eBay and avoid their fees - best price for the buyer, seller pays no eBay commissions or fees.
