Excellent, got to choose between a couple of things on my watch list now!
If you are happy to buy off eBay.co.uk
I tried the code on an import listed on eBay.co.uk and it worked.
Happy days!

That's great Andrew, thanks for the heads up!
max spend 50 no? or is it max spend 250?
Wow. Looks like I might be upgrading my phone earlier than I thought.

Max discount is £50. You can spend whatever you likeOriginally Posted by cyrusir
at which point do you enter the code? after you click proceed to checkout?
Enter the code on the PayPal page at the bottom before you commit to buy.
Just bought a CWC G10 and got £19 off.
Brilliant, thanks!
Nice, just got a Hirsch Robby for £44! Cheers!
Too fast for me Andy was just going to put this up too :)
AGHH! I just paid for something. Drat.
Thanks all the same. :-)
Thanks a lot, just saved £34 on a replacement sat nav
Just realised I also got the email but it went to junk so thanks for sharing.
Great, an excuse to do buy something. I'd better get browsing. Thanks for the heads-up!
Thanks for the tip!
Heads up, I Just bought sunglasses, put the code in and it showed the discount but it's still took the full amount. Glitch?
I noticed when ordering that if you change your paypal payment method from the default it says the code is invalid, just put it in again and it should sort itself out. A bit late now though if you've already paid.
Be careful though... I entered the code to see if it would work on a mobile phone. It showed the discount ok - but I cancelled out of the purchase at that point to look at other models. Picked one... went to buy it and it says:
The redemption code can't be used for your purchase
•There is no balance left on this redemption code
So it lets you apply that code once at checkout whether or not you click that last button to seal the deal and buy it.
Same for me, I'll have to start reading my emails...
Can anyone confirm that this is still working as of 14:20?
Just checking my email to see if I was sent it.
I got this message the first time a I tried to use it...........
According to the website it's now expired:

The email said its valid till midnight
Case anyone having problems below from live chat with Ebay
Hi, I received an email with a code for 20pct off if paying via paypal but when I entered it on checkout it says: The redemption code can't be used for your purchase
•There is no balance left on this redemption code

Ok so if I order an item today you will just reimburse the 20 % later? Do you need any details

ok where should I send these details?
John

...yeah....it may help sell my couple of watches....
Any ideas of an interesting watch for up to £250? Looking at some Seiko 5. Maybe time to try a 009.
Just spoke with eBay CS a couple of minutes ago, and I'm lead to believe they are actively monitoring all transactions made, and will be automatically reimbursing everyone that qualifies within 14 days via their Paypal account.
Phew! That's a handy £50 I'll be getting back then.
Thanks Andrew, for the heads up on the offer code.
Someone should use it to buy the Seiko Sumo (black dial) that I have listed on the site. You'd save £50 in so doing!

How will that work?
I have the Sumo listed on eBay. It's BNIB and ready to post from here in the UK.
Where did that page appear I can't seem to find it.
Also if the watch I'm looking at is £320 but can only get a Max discount of £50 rather than the £64 at 20%, will it not work or would I just get £50 off ?
Would love to know by tonight obviously😁
20% to a maximum of £50.
As above, pay for the item, then give it a fortnight to see your PP account £50 in credit or put back onto the card you used.
Nice :) might give it a try...
I just used the code, and it worked fine for me :)
Code CTWENTY is working again!
Someone should pickup my Longines master moonphase :)
And my Seiko Astron!
Thats a great discount, thanks.
(Now iv got to spend it before my wife does)
Thank you for that.
Just failed for me :-(
Damn, was working about an hour ago, was umming and ahhing too much :(
Just worked for me, brought a shark mesh.
Whilst attempting to purchase goods of a horological nature and being refused the voucher code i spotted this on their help page;
"Coupon Issue.
Our coupon campaign today has proven to be hugely successful with customers and the promotion exceeded all our expectations. Due to huge customer demand, this discount coupon is no longer available and we apologise to any customers who have been unable to participate. We know our buyers love to shop and we regularly offer discount promotions so there will be more opportunities in future."

That's outrageuos... Just tried after to committing to buy something and and there were 'no funds left on this code' so, not been able to buy what I intended to buy... A stiff letter of complaint I think
Who on earth was the product manager who came up with this campaign? And they wonder why it's all gone a bit mental on eBay... Morons
Yeah same, they must have pulled the plug :(
Apparently not working now because fools on hot deals have raped the code to death
I don't see why they are fools. That's what the code is for!
If it was amazingly successful then it got what eBay wanted: More business.
It is only eBay who have, in effect, gone back on what they promised: That the code would run to midnight. This is very disappointing by eBay and no one else is to blame.
Code was sent out to certain members email id's but not linked to accounts (ebays fault Imo) ,but got posted on to hot deals and then abused therefore the genuine people that did get the email some of those lost out.
imo hotdeals and sites like that just encourage some people to abuse certain offers and spoil it for others so in my eyes they are the fools rather than sharing with a few friends and smaller forums like what used to happen back in the early days of ecommerce
anyway i got the email and managed to buy a new 10 litre jerry can selection for car and shed :)

Bit like posting on here really.
Not really, that's my point it's more of a community here and the other good forums Ive been on for 15 years these have fewer members and more like an extended family unlike the people you see on hduk just there to abuse any offer they see, especially the ones where you see thanks ordered 30 of those etc
It was in the national popular press, so little wonder there was a huge take up of the offer. Not impressed with eBay for pulling the plug earlier than advertised.
