eBay.com have been not very subtly naughty this week, offering hot discounts, coupons, and 100+ deals for $119. It may not have escaped your notice that $119 is the exact same price as an Amazon Prime annual subscription in the US.
“eBay will offer more than a hundred deals for $119 – all with free shipping, no membership required. eBay is also unveiling massive discounts on hundreds of top items, as well as coupon offers this week. With no blackouts this summer, consumers are guaranteed the best prices through eBay’s recently launched Best Price Guarantee program, which offers 110% of the price difference on more than 100,000 items.”

There is little doubt that eBay are on the attack against Amazon. They are shooting from the hip with deals priced the same as an Amazon Prime subscription and expressly advertising that there is no membership required. Plus they are promising the same or better prices with the Best Price Guarantee and emphasising that there will be no blackouts – if you find the same item at a better price on Amazon Prime Day then eBay will refund you 110% of the difference on qualifying deals.
“Shoppers are smart and they want to make the most of their $119, so eBay is offering hundreds of deals with free shipping and no membership required. We are giving our customers deals that match their interests, and will be bringing them to life through a series of new creative spots that capture the passions of our shoppers.”
