They're always offering $10 if you sign up for Bill Me Later & use it to pay for the item.  ?:|

 

 

 

 


For mailing within the US, Delivery Confirmation is now called USPS Tracking.

It's a glitch-if you want you can call eBay and have them confirm it.

It's not a glitch, it's just a different way of presenting the Bill Me later offer. If you look next to the inflated Bucks amount ($10.60 or whatever), there's a link that says "See conditions" and below that "Includes bonus offer":

Yes, it did say something about a special, however i did not see anything about a using the pay later way. I did purchase the item, as soon as i purchased it, i didn't even pay for it yet, that 10.60 changed to 32 cents, LOL so oh well, live and learn. But i did want the item so i'm still happy. But ebay really shouldn't be doing that. it's very misleading!

If you want confirmation call eBay and ask them as I said.

I managed to reach T&S in Utah who confirmed this to me.

As it is not showing up on every listing and even on the same listing it comes and goes I tend to believe that it is indeed a glitch as I was told.

Whether it's a glitch or not, Ebay needs to honor the bonus offer.  Clear case of false advertisement even though it's supposedly unintentional (a glitch).
