If you click a link with an * to go through to a provider, we may get paid. This usually only happens if you get a product from it. This is what funds our team of journalists, and keeps us free to use. Yet there are two crucial things you need to know about this.
- This never impacts our editorial recommendations – if it's in, it's in there because we independently rate it best.
- You'll always get as good a deal (or better) than if you went direct.

Our Local eBay Deals Mapper lets you find bargains if you're prepared to pick them up.
eBay sellers often specify items must be collected in person which means fewer bids.
But you can't normally search 'collection only' so put your postcode in and how far you're prepared to schlep and watch the gems pop up.

There are always ways to save money on eBay*, so even if there isn’t a cracking deal out there that works for you, don’t assume you can’t cut your costs further.
- Find super-cheap local bargains. Sellers often specify items must be collected in person. As this often means fewer bids, there are bargains to be had. Our free Local eBay Deals Mapper tool will speedily track and map gems near you.
- Use spelling mistake spotters. Wrongly-spelt products attract fewer bids because many people miss them. A few specialist search sites take advantage of this and trawl eBay for all possible spelling mistake combinations. These include Fatfingers and Baycrazy.
- Use tools to bag overlooked items. Often sellers start auctions at 99p or less. Many items go unspotted, staying at this super-low price. Lastminute Auction hunts for eBay auctions due to finish within an hour, but which still cost £1 or less. Baycrazy's Zero Bids tool finds auctions ending soon with no bidders.
- Don't assume eBay's cheapest. Check other retailers, either using search engines or going direct, to be sure you're getting the cheapest price.
- Try haggling. There's nothing wrong with asking for a discount, even if the listing doesn't show the 'make offer' logo. Haggling works best on buy-it-now listings, or auctions with a high start price and no bids – just be polite.
- Buy on local Facebook groups. Many people harness Facebook’s power to sell to others in the local community. See our Facebook Selling Tips.
- Want more? See our 40 eBay buying tips guide for more tricks and tools to hunt hidden bargains.
If you spot any hot deals out there we have missed (we are human after all!), please let us know in the MSE forum, email us at msedeals@moneysavingexpert.com or via Twitter @MSE_Deals .

eBay Black Friday 'up to 50% off' sale
Including £240 Nintendo Switch, £400 Dyson V11 cordless vacuum
ExpiredAs in previous years, eBay* has an 'up to 50% off' sale for its Black Friday event this year, with new deals added each day until Mon 29 Nov (Cyber Monday).
Items included in the sale are across a range of categories, including home, clothing, video games and toys.
Some decent deals we found at 3:04pm on Mon 29 Nov:
- Nintendo Switch* - £239.99. Next cheapest we found, £259 at Currys*, £259.99 at Nintendo, Argos* and Game*.
- Lego 75318 Star Wars the child baby yoda* - £46.95 (was £69.99). Next cheapest we found, £59.99 at John Lewis.

eBay deals tend to be very popular with limited stock, so go quick if there's something you're after.
Important: Don't allow yourself to be taken in by the hype around Black Friday and be sucked into buying something you don't need or can't afford. Always do your own price comparisons to ensure you are getting the best deal possible – don't just take a retailer's word for it.

25% off Dyson eBay outlet code
On selected items, eg, code gets £150 V7 cordless vacuum (norm £250 new from Dyson)
ExpiredIf you go online to the eBay outlet, you can get 25% off selected certified refurbished Dyson products* until 11.59pm on Sun 19 Sep. The items should already be discounted but if not, you'll just need to enter the code DYSON25SEPT at the checkout. Express delivery is free and usually takes around two working days.
What is Certified Refurbished?
eBay says these products are not brand new but are sold as 'like-new' which means they have previously been returned with little or no damage but would have been restored and tested to make sure they are working correctly. They will be delivered in the original packaging or in new packaging with accessories and new manuals.
The products will come with a 12-month warranty and are protected by the eBay Money Back scheme* which means if there's a fault with the product, it'll be repaired or exchanged free of charge.
Are there any exclusions?
The T&C's say the biggest discount you can get is £150, even if 25% off a product might be more than £150. Also, you can only buy a maximum of three Dyson items from the website.
When we checked at 11.25am on 15 Sep, these were the products available and the prices when using the code:
- Dyson V7 Motorhead cordless* – £149.99 (was £199.99 refurbished). Normally £249.99 new at Dyson
- Dyson Supersonic hair dryer* – £179.99 (was £239.99 refurbished). Normally £299.99 new at Dyson
- Dyson Cyclone V10 Absolute cordless* – £277.49 (was £369.99 refurbished). Normally £399.99 new at Dyson
Products previously in the offer but now sold out:
- Dyson Small Ball Allergy* – £127.49 (was £169.99 refurbished). Normally £199.99 new at Dyson
- Dyson V7 Motorhead Plus cordless* – £149.99 (was £199.99 refurbished). Normally £249.99 new at Dyson
- Dyson V7 Animal Extra cordless* – £164.99 (was £219.99 refurbished). Normally £249.99 new at Dyson
- Dyson Pure 'Cool Me' personal purifier* – £187.49 (was £249.99 refurbished). Normally £299.99 new at Dyson
eBay confirmed stock was good on these products when we checked on Tue 14 Sep, but as this is refurb stock, alongside a code, items could sell out quickly as we've already seen.

Use the Money Mantras
Before spending, use Martin’s Mantras. If you answer 'NO' to any, then don't buy!
Then ask:
- Do I need it?
- Can I afford it?
- Have you checked prices elsewhere?
Then ask:
- Will I use it?
- Is it worth it?
Free protection for all shopping!
There's a little-known piece of legislation that turns any credit card into a financial self-defence superhero. 'Section 75' of the Consumer Credit Act means your plastic must protect anything you buy for more than £100 for free, so if there's a problem or the company goes bust, you can still get your money back.
And although Section 75 doesn't apply to debit cards, there is something else to fall back on if you've paid using a debit card, or used a credit card for a purchase under £100. Known as Chargeback, this is part of banks' and card companies' internal rules and not a legal requirement. Read full details of Section 75 or Chargeback, plus how to claim, in our guides.
What the * means above
If a link has an * by it, that means it is an affiliated link and therefore it helps MoneySavingExpert stay free to use, as it is tracked to us. If you go through it, it can sometimes result in a payment or benefit to the site. It's worth noting this means the third party used may be named on any credit agreements.
You shouldn’t notice any difference and the link will never negatively impact the product. Plus the editorial line (the things we write) is NEVER impacted by these links. We aim to look at all available products. If it isn't possible to get an affiliate link for the top deal, it is still included in exactly the same way, just with a non-paying link.

Press the rewind button and go way back to April 2015... Possibly on the telly in the corner of your living room, I was on-air at the time urging savers as usual to use their new tax-free cash ISA allowance – because 'money was nicer in an ISA'. But things changed in 2016. -
Martin Lewis: 'UO is just as important as UX: A tip for anyone developing their website or app'
6 May 2022![]()
I set up MoneySavingExpert.com nearly 20 years ago – when arguably the modern web was still in its infancy. With an abundance of self-belief (something I had too much of then, as I realise now) I decided not to read any books, or follow prevailing wisdom on how a site should operate – and just do it my way.
