This is advertised on watch pages, and on the checkout as well, but you can't actually use it on watches: https://pages.ebay.com/promo/2023/lux15off/

Go figure, so don't make plans like me thinking you'll pay $100 less - as it's shown there ๐Ÿ˜€

I've wasted enough time on this, representatives each make up arbitrary things why it doesn't work, one said "Wristwatches" subcategory that's under "Watches, Parts & Accessories (260324)" - isn't actually included since it's not within the included categories, another said bids/offers aren't included, yet you can just try it on any watch, it doesn't work either way

So they each make up a reason why it doesn't work, I suspect it's a bug, in any case, buyer beware ๐Ÿ™

I'd appreciate if anyone can share an eBay email where I can send a claim as a last effort (Actually I don't think this exists, back in the day, like a year ago, it was someway possible to get email correspondence)

eBay is broken.

Little things fracturing around the edges. I had three minor issues this week. Multiply that by millions and what do you get?

At least they have a phone callback system if you keep typing 'contact live person' or 'speak to a person' repeatedly in the chatbot. Not that they will do anything to fix the problem. Some solutions like 'refunding the buyer' leave seller's unhappy or make for rude sellers who do not want to deal with customer service simply block the user from purchasing. Even years later. Then eBay keeps promoting things from that 'Power seller.' Even though you are blocked and can not buy anything. Sure the seller has 100% they block everyone who complains or gives them a bad review. Then pay eBay extra to promote the listings. Then scam the user with bait and switch.

Sometimes I have found the 99.5 percent sellers are more communicative and quick to fix things. Like what happened this week.

Still waiting for the double charge to disappear.


Edit: ... and I am just as addicted as I ever was.
