Karenkay--for this to work as a conga, you should now post your referral link.

To send it to your friends, go through Groupon to refer your friends.

Try http://www.groupon.com/deals/ebay as the link to access the coupon.

it does seem weird that you can't find it in your state/city, and it shows up only as whatever city you last checked.

FYI, I was able to purchase the voucher and have already used it on eBay It took a while to come, but once you 'print' it out on their site, you can apply to ebay orders immediately.

According to someone on that thread, per Groupon customer service, it's legit.

glad to hear it! i bought this morning, and it still doesn't show up on either my groupon or in my email. i thought groupons only were good the day after purchase.

Most groupons I've purchased have been good for several weeks, if not months after their purchase.

you're right, i wasn't clear. they're typically good for months after, but not until 24 hours later.
btw, my ebay groupon has now appeared in my groupon purchased list. ^

As does mine, although I've still not received an email confirmation of it!

I liked this deal--Mr. Kipper is looking to buy a Vostok watch from eBay one of these days, so I know I'll use this one in the near future.

No email confirmation either and I can't refer friends to the Ebay deal. Everytime I try it sends them to some other deal. I can't get it to go with my account??
