Do you know if all of these are considered Daily Deals? I’d like to buy on my wife’s account as well but don’t want to risk it if they are. I can’t find any posting anywhere regarding it being a Daily Deal.
They aren’t listed under daily deals as far as I can tell, however normally gift card deals like these are classified that way.
As usual, always appreciate your insight.
I had a feeling they may be lumped into the daily deals because of the limits. I’ll hold off then.
Can you elaborate on your fear of buying daily deals?
Received mc999 warnings on both of my accounts. I’m basically under Ebay’s watchful eyes now and have no wiggle room.
