Coupon selling on ebay

I am not sure if this is the correct place to post, but I found this on e.bay. it might save us money and embarressment at the checkout.:confused::santa2:

.Revised 7/12/08:-

Revised 3/12/08:-

Hi

Thank you for your email and your interest in Eukanuba.

Please be assured that your email has been forwarded to our marketing and legal teams. The coupons would not be redeemed by either Asda or Tesco as they do not stock Eukanuba.

I hope this helps. If I can be of any further assistance, please don't hesitate to call me on Freephone 0808 100 70 30 or write to me via email: [EMAIL="Eukanuba-carelineUK@iams.com"]Eukanuba-carelineUK@iams.com[/EMAIL] Kind Regards,Linda



Revised 5/12/08:-

Mitchum £1.50 & £1.00 (no longer acceptable) or more like hit & miss at Tesco depends on which c/a you go to.



INFORMATION ONLY It is technically not true when a seller says that Tesco/Asda/Morrison will accept the coupons!

If you dont buy the specific products - ASDA will not accept it.

Morrison do not accept printable coupons downloaded/printed on so call card/paper no matter how glossy it turn out to be - due to abuse of coupon usage! unless it is directly from the manufacturer & to used for the actual product.

Depending on stores Tesco only accept certain coupons provided it is not a duplicate copy - IF YOU ARE LUCKY! Tesco Metro the smaller shop - no hope!!!!! you will be wasting your time & embarrassment

If you want printable coupons all you have to do is google it - simple as that.

Some coupons you have to register to print out for PERSONAL USE ONLY! Any coupons from couponnet are controlled. meaning sometimes you get to print a max. of 2 coupons. In order to print you will need download the software - this software is to stop people from reprinting again & again - sometime these sellers altered the coupons & the superstore will not be able to claim back the money - and you might get yourself into trouble.

These are the coupons under investigation by the manufacturers legal department :- Eukanuba (some sellers just list it as DOG FOOD & No it does not scan at Tesco), Betty Crocker (BC) and Haagen dazs (HD), That is why these sellers are trying to offload it cheaply becoz they know something you dont. and many more (Loreal's, Cobra,etc - will also come under the mfg investigation wanting to know how their coupons ended up on ebay) because there are far too many circulation in the market.

By the way, I am are talking about Haagen Dazs UK & I dont know anything about Haagen Dazs Ireland coupons.



If any sellers states that Complan - coupons works at any superstore they lied! it doesn't scan at Tesco!.

http://www.appletiser.co.uk - this is for peartizer fruittizer 50 p coupons.

£2 off Glayva coupon - it was initially from Metro newspaper cutting on 25/11/08 page 18-19. http://www.metro.co.uk/e-metro

Don't get greedy buying lots of Glayva bcoz like every coupons it will be clamp down sooner than you thought.

to get your 50p voucher off 70cl or 1 Litre Baileys, Gordons Gin, Morgans Spice, Pimms, Sminoff or Bells Go to web site www.thetasteofautumn.com and register you details. You will be entered into a prize draw and then get a printable 50p voucher off coupon in a legit way. This coupon will have your name/dob & it is for personal used only.



You can get Mitchums/fruitiser/cow&gate etc for free. If you know how to use computer, you will know how to google it!

Tesco has recently clamping down on coupons as too many photocopies/printable being used & abused, due to misuse by the minority. Certain Tesco branches refuse ALL internet coupons - Tesco rejected HD & BC b'coz they were told to do so by the mfg whilst under investigation.

EBAY IS DOING NOTHING TO STOP THE SELLERS FROM SELLING ILLEGAL COUPONS - THIS DOES NOT MEAN THAT THESE SELLERS ARE NOT UNDER EXTERNAL INVESTIGATION.

PRINTABLE COUPONS SHOULD NOT BE ON SALE!!!!!!!!!!!!! SIMPLE AS THAT.

If you bid for the printable ones, you are bidding for something that you can get for FREE. If you dont have a printer, get yourself a cheap printer & you dont have to buy original cartridge to use it on your printer as long as it is compatible.

The best way to get free coupons is register (for offers/future coupons/etc) with the company, go to their website - eg : nescafe, huggies, airwick & many more that you can think of even Jordan (breakfast cereal) they sometime send you a free sample(s) together with voucher(s).

BTW:-

How can a seller telling a buyer to "check your supermarket policy before you bid/buy the coupons - no refund" If the sellers states that, again they know something you dont - and you are missing something! answer :- by reading all the thread/posts that we genuine couponners posts in the on going forums.

Yeah right!!! err., excuse me... I am going to buy printable/counterfeit coupons from ebay sellers & they ask me to find out whether you accept this doggy so and so coupons before I bid/buy.

It is sellers job to find out not the buyers!!!! Anyway, if you still insist on buying from these greedy sellers - and if it doesnt scan or not accepted (due to over used/ over circulation in the market) & if you pay via paypal (you are still protected but I dont know for how long - for I have stop using ebay to sell goods now) you can always claim back from the sellers for selling counterfeit/duplicate/copies coupons. Even if it is download from internet, there is no guarantee that the voucher will scan. Do not buy outside ebay, do not pay cheque or any other means, you will never recover the money back this way - we also know that some of these sellers sell outside ebay & the buyers will have problems getting back to the sellers - reason - they have gone hiding!!! - again this is from reading forums.

BOGOF cookies & others :- http://www.milliescookies.com/vouche...ers-241108.pdf - if this appears on ebay for sale we'll not hesitate to contact millies directly.

THANK YOU. HOPE YOU ENJOY READING - GOODBYE & C.U. ON THE NEXT FREE LISTING DAY.

I will update this listing & the other one, once I have more info/reply from the superstores. Waitrose, has passed it to their relevant departments to deal with abused coupons. Sainsbury will get back soon. Morrison lucky you... they dont have website/email address. Therefore, you can flood Morrisons with your coupons.
