    To those that are complaining.

    Get a grip and take some responsibility for your actions.

    I opened the email this am and thought I wonder if all 50000 have been used and then realised that I may have to commit to buy before finding out...something I wasnt pepared to do, so had a look around for anywhere that may tell me it had expired, hey presto found this thread.

    It wasnt difficult

    It was posted last evening on their face book page, for the face book fans of ebay. The code was a treat for those fans. Those that got the martin lewis email this morning and are moaning because its now ran out, were'nt the people it was meant for anyway. If you should have had the code, you would have known on facebook. Stop whinging, get over it. It was a fiver, for god sake.

    Only a few sellers require immediate payment. You can find out the code doesn't work before checking out to pay and not committing. Simple. People shouldn't be getting annoyed because they missed out either!

    :T thankyou OP saw this last night, got 2 x 30ml bottles of clarins eye make up remover for £1.45 free postage, well chuffed as had nearly run out. Didnt have my husbands email address handy or would have ordered something on his account. Well done to all who used the code, never seen one of these from ebay before!

    As with all codes and glitches, they always get used up quickly, some people will always take more than others think they should. Their choice and always a difference of opinion.
    I am happy either way, many times I have missed a 'deal' and many times have I got a 'deal' am very thankful to all who post.
    Life happens when you are busy making other plans ;)
