What if I offered an airline menu or a shaving kit for sale on e-bay and included 2 free SWU's/VIPOW's with it?</font>
I was going to reply and state I thought it was against ebay's (and other auction sites') terms of service to include free "extras" under the guise of seller something else (white envelopes).
But, I did find an interesting piece in the ebay rules:
<font face="Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif" size="2">Bonuses and Prizes
It is generally permissible for sellers to offer a bonus item to bidders within their listing (...) the seller must state the exact price at which the bonus will apply. For example, it is not permissible to state, "I will throw in a state-of-the-art black and white TV if bidding reaches a high enough amount." It is permissible to state, "I will throw in a state-of-the-art black and white TV if bidding reaches $150."</font>
If I'm selling a tangible product (UA ticket jacket) and say that if bidding reaches $50 I'll throw in a free $75 certificate, am I breaking ebay's rules? Perhaps not.
Am I violating United's rules?
