Can I sell a Laithwaites £10 wine voucher on ebay? Now free to collect.

I received a voucher this morning giving £10 off a purchase of 12 or more bottles of wine from a Laithwaites wine shop. I don’t normally shop there as I think they are overpriced compared to my preferred wine retailers, Waitrose and Tesco, so I won’t be using it.

Can I list it on ebay or will I fall foul of their rules? If yes, what category should I list it under. I was considering listing it on a 5p day starting at £1.50 which will cover free postage and fees.

If it is against ebay rules, rather than throwing it away I will give it to anyone who wants to collect it. I live in Weybridge and the shop is in Hersham so you need to be local or know someone who is local. Please don’t PM me unless and until I confirm I will not be selling it but check back on this thread. No “Are you local” jokes please? Unless they are really funny and original. :D

Thanks

Edit, see post 5, if anyone wants this for free PM me. :)

    It states that it is "non transferable” and also “one voucher per household” but there are no identifying codes on it. It is just a mass produced paper leaflet and they probably sent out thousands of them.

    I can’t envisage Laithwaites declining a sale of 12 bottles of wine. :)

    "Can I sell a Laithwaites £10 wine voucher on ebay?"

    Apparently not.

    I listed it late last night and ebay pulled it at 9:30 this morning, quoting sale of alcohol rules.

    I’m not selling alcohol you muppets. I’m selling a piece of paper. :rolleyes: :D

    If anyone would like this voucher for free, PM me. You will need to collect it by prior arrangement in Weybridge, Surrey. It expires at the end of March. There is a shop in Hersham where you can use it.
