While Australians have long held affection for eBay and all that it has to offer, we can’t forget their biggest online shopping event.
Yes, the much looked-forward-to eBay Plus Weekend is coming up and we’ve got all the details that you need to know.
The eBay Plus Weekend is a limited shopping event where you can expect to see daily discounts drop on millions of products across tech, beauty, fashion, home, appliances and more.
It begins at 10am on Thursday, May 25 and will wrap up at 11.59pm on Sunday, May 28.
This shopping event is limited to eBay Plus members only, so if you aren’t a member already or aren’t familiar with the membership, let us break it down for you.
WHAT IS EBAY PLUS?
If Amazon has Prime, eBay has eBay Plus. eBay Plus is eBay’s membership plan that provides members with access to brilliant offers and unparalleled perks.
So if you’re almost always getting an eBay package delivered to your door, it’s definitely worth signing up for an eBay Plus membership. Handy even for those who don’t get deliveries often, an eBay Plus membership is one of the easiest ways you can save money on your eBay orders. It unlocks many amazing benefits that online shoppers are sure to love – for just $4.99 a month, you’ll get access to exclusive deals and savings, plus free delivery and returns on millions of items.
WHAT ARE THE BENEFITS OF AN EBAY PLUS MEMBERSHIP?
Here’s what signing up for an eBay Plus membership will give you.
- Exclusive deals and savings all year round, especially during the annual eBay Plus weekend sale event where the retailer has previously offered amazing deals on Dyson stick vacuums, Nintendo Switch consoles, Dell laptops and MyGenie robot vacuum cleaners.
- Free express metro delivery on millions of eligible items – please note this excludes WA, NT and TAS.
- Free returns on millions of eligible items.
- Plus members get two $5 vouchers each month
HOW MUCH DOES EBAY PLUS COST?
When signing up for an eBay Plus membership, you get to choose between two different payment plans.
You can opt for a flexible $4.99 a month – this works out to be just over $58 for the year. Your other pick is the annual membership which will set you back a one-off payment of just $49.
As you can see, if you commit to the yearly membership, you do get about $10 off the total price, so it’s worth it if you can afford it.
HOW DOES THE FREE TRIAL WORK?
Like most other membership programs, eBay Plus offers a 30-day free trial. During this time period, you can cancel eBay Plus at any time without any charges.
More Coverage
Once the trial has ended, you’ll be charged the membership you selected when signing up.
