Default eBay Bucks just came in! What are you guys buying?

I'm always interested to see how people spend their eBay bucks. Do you go PC? Do you invest? Do you spend it on riskier players? What are you planning to buy with your eBay bucks?

This quarter was my lowest amount ever (I've been in ebay bucks since the beginning).

$2.71

I average around $20+ per quarter (as much as $100 in one case).

Must be the combination of the sales tax and my interest in spending my money elsewhere!

$459 and change this month. New personal best. Already spent. PC hard or go home lol

Although, I did scratch an itch on a non-PC card. Cheapie thankfully but didn't use the ebucks towards it.

Sexy stuff Lucky. I wonder if Panini read our forum for what product pieces to put in Chronicles. It blind-sided some people with some of these nice cards. Shame I cut back on box buying lol

Thanks, and right? I thought Essentials was a goner for sure. I still kinda cant believe this Luka card exists!

And you know you're doing it right with the "no boxes" thing. Thats what I aspire for but Ive been a sucker for those $10 Threads boxes at Target lately.

I'm tempted to wait to use mine and see if eBay puts out a coupon to combat Prime Day.

I already spent most of my $200.

Got a lot of 2000 Beam Team’s that I’ve been watching for months - that recently had its price lowered and a Wilt card that the offer was accepted on last night.

Thanks for the post, Op, or I wouldn’t have realized that the bucks were in.

Bought this Brogdon to help start off Pacers collection a little; bought the Silver PSA 10 on COMC. This card was $10.59 after my coupon so not bad.

Yessir. I’m at like $9. A record low for me. Usually in the $50 - $100 range.

This was half of my bucks - was 95...I liked the price personally woulda been nice to get it around 80-85 but it’s one of better deals available imo at least with his value lately.

Should be somewhere in my ebay. I enrolled a year ago this month. If you buy regularly on ebay, it's worth it.
