@d194073,

You posted about the issue on the Technical issues board, and that could be why you could not find it.  According to what I found out about the Coupon it ends on 11/27 but it does not say at what time. Maybe it was only good through the 26th. There may be restrictions on which Items you can apply the discount to so read the info carefully. 

Use the link below and when it opens click on the Get The Coupon button, maybe you will get a different code to enter for your purchase.

@d194073,

I kind of figured it would be active until midnight tonight, but didn't take the time to read everything about the coupon's terms.  You may not be able to apply the code if what you are trying to buy exceeds the monetary discount amount limit, or if the category of the item you want to purchased is not covered by the coupon. If you open the link I gave you in my first reply, all of the terms/limits of the discount should be explained.  You should be able to access the information from the message you received about the discount as well, by clicking on the More details, Read More, or other similarly worded link in the message. They will be underlined indicating they are a link.

@d194073,

I just searched for something in the coupon search page, but here weren't any items that matched my keywords. So eBay shows items that were not eligible for the coupon, which was confusing. So it's possible that you may have chosen an item that is not eligible, even though you were searching for coupon-eligible items. Only items that are listed in one of the "events" are eligible.

You should check the total price anyway. I noticed that some of the items that were not eligible, were a lower price than the eligible items even when the coupon was applied. I would not get hung up on using a coupon or getting 20% off. Just go with the best price.

Another possibility, this is from the terms and conditions:

"For US eBay users: Coupon is subject to U.S laws, void where prohibited, not redeemable for cash, has no face value, and cannot be combined with any other Coupon, or when paying with PayPal Credit Easy Payments, escrow, or gift cards."

Do you mean postage stamps, or first day covers, like that? I just searched, and there are no stamps included in the eligible items for this coupon.

The closest I could find was a faux-down comforter with the word "stamped" in the title.

This is all I could find with the keyword "stamp". No postage stamps or collectible stamps.

Events did not show up in the ebay coupon page I received.

You have to click on "See Details" and then scroll down to see the list of events. See the screenshot and link below. There are about 42 of them all told.

However, if you search on this linked page, and make sure that the search results stay on that page, then you can find items that are eligible for the coupon. There are no postage stamps or collectible stamps included.

If there are no eligible search results, then eBay will show "Similar items on eBay" at the bottom, and those items will not be part of the special search group because they are not eligible for the coupon. So you have to be careful not to be led astray.

eBay doesn't pay the discount anyway. The sellers do. In order to get items into a coupon promotion like this, the sellers have to agree to the lower price.They also have to have multiples of the items available, so they won't go out of stock immediately (or quickly). That's why the coupon is not good on everything on the site.

Of course, most of the prices are raised to compensate, which is why you need to check to make sure that you are getting a good deal. There are likely to be better deals, and a lower price bottom line, without the coupon.
