If you’re a member of the eBay Bucks program, eBay has issued the eBay Bucks Certificates for the quarter.
eBay Bucks allows members to earn cash-back like rewards for qualifying eBay purchases.
Since it is the first month of the new quarter, eBay will often wait until the 3rd week of the month before starting any new eBay Bucks promotions. During the first promotion of the quarter is the best time to double-dip your eBay Bucks to earn more while you spend your earned Bucks.
There are several resources if you’re interested in learning more about the program and how you can earn cash-back rewards when you buy silver and gold bullion on eBay.

The base reward for eBay Bucks is 1% of the purchase price on eligible items. eBay will run promotions throughout each quarter increasing the cash-back reward to as high as 10% of the purchase price on eligible items.
Items in certain categories are excluded from earning eBay Bucks. Such as bullion, gift cards and things like that. However, some dealers will intentionally add listings for Silver Bullion and Gold Bullion items in categories that are eligible for earning eBay Bucks.
Most often, fractional gold coins, such as 20 Francs Gold Coins and British Gold Sovereign coins can be bought well below melt value when factoring in the cash back rewards. Pre-1933 Gold coins, such as the Double Eagle, can be bought for far below melt value.
For those wishing to add gold to their precious metals investments, leveraging the eBay Bucks cash-back rewards program offers an opportunity to buy gold below spot price.
