Ebay Buyer make offer system.

[jdeerel10]

Is there a way to go back to the old offer system? I like to buy my items with eBay gift cards after I have won a offer....or partial payment. With the new system it automatically purchases the item and doesn't let you choose after the win  to use a gift card. It does let you enter a card before but I don't want to have a couple hundred bucks of gift cards tied up. Kind Regards.

You know, sadly I don't think there is a way to enter a gift card up front. I think that's quite a flaw, but I digress...

You can ask the seller to either untick the requirement or add you to their 'Exempt' list, I believe. Good luck.

Although buyers now seem to be regarded as easily replaceable.

Don't like the new system?

Unhappy? Let ebay know.

Then act in your best interest
