eBay

eBay Australia is one of Australia's largest online marketplaces, operating auction and Buy-It-Now formats side by side across new, refurbished and used categories. Both consumer-to-consumer sellers and large retail sellers list on ebay.com.au. Category depth spans electronics, home, fashion, automotive parts, collectibles, garden and business supplies. eBay Plus is the paid loyalty membership. Activate ShopBack Australia via shopback.com.au/ebay-australia before clicking through to earn Cashback on eligible orders.

eBay Australia rotates platform-wide percent-off codes (often prefixed with PLUS or a similar campaign identifier) tied to eBay Plus Days, Click Frenzy, Black Friday, Cyber Monday and Boxing Day windows. Codes typically carry a min-spend threshold, per-order discount cap, and category exclusions. Seller-issued coupons at the listing level can often stack with a platform code (eBay allows one platform code plus one seller code per order in most cases). Start the order from the ShopBack eBay Australia page before you pay so it earns Cashback.

eBay Plus is eBay's paid membership. Benefits typically include free shipping on eligible Plus items, member-only pricing, a monthly voucher, extended return windows on eligible items and priority customer support. For members ordering from Plus-eligible sellers 3 or more times per year, the annual fee typically pays back on shipping alone.

eBay Australia leads on catalogue breadth (widest overall including used, collectibles, refurbished and long-tail SKUs), seller diversity from private sellers to large retailers, auction-format access, and platform-wide code stacking with seller coupons. Amazon Australia typically leads on delivery speed (Prime same-day and next-day), returns fluency, and the Kindle and Echo ecosystem lock-in. For a specific new-in-box SKU where speed matters, Amazon often wins; for a long-tail, refurbished, used or collectibles hunt, eBay usually wins. Both earn Cashback through ShopBack Australia.

eBay Money Back Guarantee covers most Australian purchases where the item does not arrive, arrives significantly not as described, or arrives damaged. Claims are lodged through eBay's Resolution Centre within a published window from delivery. Refunds process to the original payment method after eBay's review. Some categories (custom-made items, adults-only, real estate, motor vehicles) sit outside standard coverage.

eBay Plus Days (typically two or three per year, member-priority access), Click Frenzy (usually mid November), Black Friday (27 November 2026), Cyber Monday (30 November 2026), Boxing Day (26 December) and rolling long-weekend flash sales are eBay Australia's deepest annual windows. Sitewide PLUS codes typically drop across these events. Start each order from the ShopBack eBay Australia page.

eBay Refurbished is a certified programme where selected refurbished electronics (headphones, laptops, tablets, phones, gaming consoles) are sold by approved sellers with a minimum warranty and Money Back Guarantee coverage. Certified Refurbished tier typically ships in new-condition packaging with a stated warranty; Excellent and Very Good tiers ship with shorter warranty and cosmetic notes. For high-value electronics, Certified Refurbished is the safer path than open-listing used; activate through the ShopBack eBay Australia merchant page before clicking through to earn Cashback at the current published rate on eligible refurbished orders.

Go through ShopBack before you pay and the Cashback tracks to your ShopBack account. Start from shopback.com.au/ebay-australia and finish the order on the eBay website. The eBay page on ShopBack shows which purchases earn Cashback and the live rate.

On your phone, open eBay Australia from the ShopBack app and finish the order there. Pending Cashback typically appears within the tracking and confirmation times shown on this page, and Confirmed status settles after eBay's buyer-protection window closes on the order.

eBay Australia (ebay.com.au) is the Australian marketplace of eBay Inc., listing new, refurbished and used items from Australian and overseas sellers across auction and Buy It Now formats. The ShopBack Australia page for eBay splits Cashback by category, from vehicle parts and home and garden through electronics, toys, beauty and collectibles, with the rate shown on this page for each. eBay Plus is the paid membership, and eBay Money Back Guarantee is eBay's buyer protection, which works alongside Australian Consumer Law. Start eBay orders from shopback.com.au/ebay-australia and part of what you spend comes back as Cashback at the rate shown on this page.

Open the eBay Australia page on ShopBack in the app or on the site, go on to ebay.com.au and finish checkout there. Cashback shows as Pending and moves to Confirmed once eBay's buyer-protection window has closed, within the tracking and confirmation times shown on this page.

There are three parts. First, Cashback on ebay.com.au orders at the rate shown on this page, paid to your bank or PayPal after confirmation; when an upsize runs, the higher rate shows on this page, so compare the figures on the page before you buy. Second, ShopBack's gift card hub has not listed an eBay Australia gift card. Third, eBay's own sale events: eBay Plus Days, Click Frenzy in mid November, Black Friday and Cyber Monday in late November, and Boxing Day.

The effective price is what you pay at checkout minus the Cashback that comes back. Take the item price in an eligible category, such as a smartphone in Cell Phones and Accessories, and subtract the Cashback at the rate shown on ShopBack's eBay Australia page for that category, paid to your bank or PayPal after the order confirms within the confirmation time shown on this page.

Buy It Now at the listed price is the format that earns Cashback. Start from the eBay Australia page on ShopBack before you pay, and part of what you spend comes back as Cashback at the rate shown on this page.

Yes. eBay checkout accepts cards, PayPal and eBay gift cards as payment. Start from the eBay Australia page on ShopBack before you pay, and part of what you spend comes back as Cashback at the rate shown on this page.

Go through ShopBack before you pay and the Cashback tracks to your ShopBack account. The ShopBack eBay Australia terms set out the steps on eBay: click through from the ShopBack eBay Australia page itself (the ShopBack extension is not supported for eBay), buy at Buy It Now rather than Best Offer or auction, check out on the eBay website rather than in the eBay app, click through again before buying an item from your watchlist, and skip advertising banners and sponsored links on eBay during the session. Also make sure the seller marks the order as sent after you receive it, which the terms require.

When you pay through eBay checkout on ebay.com.au, eBay Money Back Guarantee covers you for 30 days from the estimated or actual delivery date if the item does not arrive, is faulty or damaged, or does not match the listing (per the ebay.com.au policy as checked in October 2026). Report a missing item within 30 days of the estimated delivery date; the seller has 3 business days to respond before you can ask eBay to step in, and eBay replies within 48 hours and keeps the case open for 21 business days. Excluded items include motor vehicles, boats, real estate, services, digitally delivered content, travel tickets and vouchers, event tickets and NFTs.

eBay Australia rotates platform-wide percent-off codes (the PLUS prefix is common) around eBay Plus Days, Click Frenzy in mid November, Black Friday and Cyber Monday in late November, and Boxing Day, usually with a minimum spend and category exclusions. No code needed: go through ShopBack before you pay and part of what you spend comes back as Cashback.

eBay Plus is eBay's paid membership, with free delivery on Plus-badged items, member pricing, periodic vouchers and extended returns. It typically pays for itself on delivery alone if you buy three or more Plus-badged items in a year. If you shop eBay fewer than three times a year, skip Plus and use the Click Frenzy, Black Friday and Boxing Day windows instead.

Pick Amazon Australia for new-in-box electronics where delivery speed and a single returns desk matter; pick eBay Australia for refurbished electronics (Certified Refurbished listings carry a warranty and Money Back Guarantee), discontinued models and parts, and anything a local seller lists for pickup. Both earn Cashback through ShopBack Australia at their own rates, and eBay splits its rates across a wider set of categories, shown on this page. Our Amazon Australia vs eBay Australia guide walks through when to shop each.

Kogan is a retailer with its own house-brand TVs, appliances and parallel-import phones sold at fixed prices with Kogan FIRST membership delivery; eBay Australia is a marketplace where those same brand-name products appear from many sellers, including Kogan's own eBay store and official brand outlets. Kogan wins when you want one seller, one warranty counterparty and a house-brand price on a 55 to 75 inch TV; eBay wins when a brand outlet or refurbisher undercuts retail, or when you want a specific older model. Compare the delivered price including postage, then route through ShopBack Australia to whichever wins, since both earn Cashback at the rates shown on their pages. Parallel-import phones on either channel may carry an importer warranty rather than the Australian manufacturer warranty, so check the listing.

For a current-model TV or laptop, JB Hi-Fi and The Good Guys give you a local retailer warranty desk, Click and Collect and store-level price negotiation, and both retailers also run official eBay stores where sale stock appears with eBay codes. eBay Australia wins when a retailer's eBay outlet or a Certified Refurbished seller lists the model below the retailer's own site price, or when you want a model the retailers have cleared. Which purchases earn Cashback differs between JB Hi-Fi and eBay, so check the Terms and exclusions section on each ShopBack page before you buy. See our JB Hi-Fi vs Amazon Australia vs The Good Guys comparison for the retailer side.

Catch has closed, so it is no longer an option for parallel imports or clearance. eBay Australia covers that kind of stock from thousands of sellers, plus used and collectible categories, with the Money Back Guarantee covering non-delivery and not-as-described claims within eBay's protection window. Kogan is the other fixed-price option for parallel-import phones and clearance. eBay orders started from ShopBack earn Cashback at the rates shown on this page.

Phones and tablets sit in their own categories on the ShopBack eBay Australia page, each with its own rate shown on this page. Official brand outlets, Australian retailers' eBay stores and Certified Refurbished sellers list iPhone, Samsung Galaxy and Google Pixel models, often with the deepest cuts on previous-generation units during Click Frenzy and Black Friday. Buy It Now at the listed price is what earns Cashback. Check whether the listing is Australian stock with manufacturer warranty or a parallel import with an importer warranty before paying.

TV, video and audio and home appliances can carry different rates on the ShopBack eBay Australia page, so check the rate shown on this page for your item before you buy. Large TVs on eBay are typically sold by retailer outlets and brand stores with delivery quotes that depend on your postcode, so compare the delivered price against JB Hi-Fi and The Good Guys rather than the sticker alone. Boxing Day and Black Friday are when 65 to 85 inch panels discount hardest across the whole Australian market. Soundbars, headphones and speakers from brand stores often appear in the same sale windows.

Yes, laptops and computer parts can earn Cashback at the rate shown on this page. eBay Australia is strong for Certified Refurbished business laptops (ThinkPad, Latitude, EliteBook) sold by refurbishers with a stated warranty, for GPUs, SSDs and memory from component retailers' eBay stores, and for monitors and peripherals during Click Frenzy and Black Friday. Buy at the Buy It Now price so the order earns Cashback, and check the warranty term and the seller's return window on the listing. For a brand-new current-generation machine, also compare Lenovo direct and JB Hi-Fi, both of which earn Cashback through ShopBack.

Video games and consoles can earn Cashback on eBay Australia at the rate shown on this page. Retailer pages on ShopBack set their own terms, so if you are also pricing a console at JB Hi-Fi, The Good Guys or BIG W, check the Terms and exclusions on each ShopBack page. Console bundles from retailer eBay stores typically cluster around Black Friday, Boxing Day and the Christmas run-up. Pre-owned games and accessories from individual sellers also sit in this category; buy at Buy It Now so they earn Cashback.

Vehicle parts and accessories earn at the rate shown on this page, and it is the category eBay Australia is well known for: OEM and aftermarket parts from Australian auto retailers' eBay stores, tyres with fitting partners, roof racks, towbars and detailing supplies. Use the My Garage fitment filter on the listing to confirm the part fits your make and model, and check whether the seller is in Australia to avoid import delays. The eBay Motors and US Motors categories are separate rows and cover vehicles themselves, which eBay Money Back Guarantee excludes. Buy It Now purchases earn Cashback.

Home and garden and home appliances can carry different rates on the ShopBack eBay Australia page, so check the rate shown on this page for your item. Furniture retailers, outdoor and tool brands and appliance outlets run eBay stores that often use platform codes during Click Frenzy and Black Friday. For a coordinated furniture order, also compare Temple and Webster, and for small appliances compare The Good Guys, both of which earn Cashback through ShopBack. Bulky-item postage on eBay depends on postcode, so compare the delivered price.

Clothing, beauty and baby products each earn at the rate shown on this page for their category. Brand outlet stores on eBay (sportswear, footwear and department-store clearance) and authorised beauty retailers list current stock, while individual sellers cover pre-owned and discontinued lines. For prams, car seats and nursery furniture, check that the listing is new, Australian stock meeting local standards. For a wider branded fashion range with free returns, compare THE ICONIC, which also earns Cashback through ShopBack.

Collectibles, toys, coins and memorabilia can all earn Cashback at the rates shown on this page, which makes eBay a deep channel for this kind of shopping. Many collectible listings run as auctions or invite a Best Offer, so look for a Buy It Now price: that is the format that earns Cashback. For new sealed LEGO, Pokemon and board games, also compare BIG W during its annual Toy Sale. Authenticity Guarantee purchases remain covered by eBay Money Back Guarantee for non-delivery.

eBay Certified Refurbished is a seller programme for refurbished electronics sold by the brand or an approved refurbisher with a stated warranty and coverage under eBay Money Back Guarantee; Excellent and Very Good refurbished grades are sold by other sellers with shorter warranties and cosmetic notes. The listing's grade and warranty term are printed on the item page, so read them before buying. Refurbished items earn Cashback in their normal category (Electronics, Cell Phones, Computers) at the rate shown on this page when bought at the Buy It Now price through a ShopBack click-through. Compare Amazon Renewed on Amazon Australia for a like-for-like model.

Four seller types matter: official brand and retailer stores (including JB Hi-Fi, The Good Guys and Kogan outlets on eBay), Top Rated sellers with high feedback and fast handling, Certified Refurbished programme sellers, and private sellers listing used items. All earn Cashback at the category rate shown on this page when you buy at Buy It Now and the seller marks the item as sent, as the ShopBack eBay Australia terms set out. Private listings are the ones most often set to auction or Best Offer, so look for Buy It Now on those. Check the seller's location, feedback score and returns policy on the listing before paying.

Under Australia's low-value imported goods rules (ato.gov.au), GST applies to goods valued at A$1,000 or less sold to Australian buyers by overseas sellers through platforms like eBay, and eBay collects it at checkout; goods over A$1,000 are assessed for GST and duty at the border and the buyer pays import charges unless the seller pre-pays them. eBay Money Back Guarantee may not cover an international purchase that cannot be delivered because duties or taxes were left unpaid (ebay.com.au policy). International purchases earn Cashback at the normal category rate shown on this page when bought at Buy It Now through ShopBack.

eBay Australia is the right pick when the item is refurbished, discontinued, a spare part or a collectible; when a brand or retailer eBay outlet lists the model below its own website price; and when you can buy at Buy It Now. Route the order through shopback.com.au/ebay-australia before you pay.

Skip eBay when the listing is auction-only or the price depends on a Best Offer, because the price can change before you pay; when you want a new current-model TV or appliance with installation and a store warranty desk, where The Good Guys or JB Hi-Fi are simpler; and when next-day delivery matters, where Amazon Australia usually wins.

Delivery is set by each seller and shown on the listing with an estimated date; eBay Plus-badged items ship free for members, and local pickup is offered on bulky items by many Australian sellers. Returns follow the seller's stated policy for change of mind, while faulty, damaged or not-as-described items are covered by eBay Money Back Guarantee within eBay's protection window regardless of the seller's policy. eBay checkout accepts cards, PayPal and eBay gift cards. Start from the eBay Australia page on ShopBack before you pay, and part of what you spend comes back as Cashback at the rate shown on this page.

Tracking and confirmation times for eBay Australia are shown on this page. The gap covers eBay's 30-day Money Back Guarantee window plus settlement. Cashback is based on what you keep: if you return or cancel part of an order, the Cashback adjusts to match. Once Confirmed, Cashback is withdrawn to your linked Australian bank account or PayPal from the ShopBack app.

eBay's PLUS-prefix sitewide codes tend to run around its event windows, such as Click Frenzy in mid November and Black Friday and Cyber Monday in late November. Outside those windows, a Buy It Now sale price is the simplest saving, and Cashback comes back at the rate shown on ShopBack's eBay Australia page when you start your order there.

eBay Plus bundles free delivery on Plus-badged items, member pricing, periodic vouchers and extended returns, and it pays for itself on delivery alone at roughly three Plus-badged orders a year. Occasional shoppers can skip Plus and rely on the Click Frenzy, Black Friday and Boxing Day windows.

Filter to eBay Certified Refurbished for brand or approved-refurbisher listings with a stated warranty and Money Back Guarantee cover, or to Excellent and Very Good refurbished grades from other sellers if you accept a shorter warranty and cosmetic notes. Start from the ShopBack eBay Australia page and buy at the Buy It Now price, and the item earns Cashback in its normal category (Cell Phones and Accessories, Computers, Electronics) at the rate shown on this page. What you pay is the checkout price minus the Cashback that comes back, confirmed within the confirmation time shown on this page. Compare the same model as Amazon Renewed on Amazon Australia before you commit, since Amazon has its own ShopBack page and rate.

Click Frenzy usually runs in mid November, Black Friday and Cyber Monday fall in late November and Boxing Day is 26 December. eBay's pattern in these windows is a sitewide percent-off code (often the PLUS prefix) with a minimum spend and category exclusions, plus deeper eBay Plus member pricing on tech, home and auto. eBay Plus Weekend and eBay Plus Days are members-only windows with their own vouchers, announced by eBay ahead of each one. During these events, the sale price is what you pay at checkout. Going through ShopBack before you pay is an essential step, and part of what you spend comes back as Cashback. Check the rate shown on ShopBack's eBay Australia page before you buy; upsized rates show on the same page during these windows. For a deeper look, see AU Black Friday 2026: What to Buy When.

eBay checkout accepts eBay gift cards alongside cards and PayPal, and eBay Plus members receive periodic vouchers. ShopBack's gift card hub has not listed an eBay Australia gift card; check shopback.com.au/gift-cards for current cards.

Each channel has its own ShopBack Australia page and rate, so the answer is the delivered price minus Cashback at each page's rate. Amazon Australia tends to win on new-in-box mainstream electronics with fast delivery and one returns desk; Kogan wins on its house-brand TVs and appliances and parallel-import phones at fixed prices; eBay Australia wins on refurbished stock, discontinued models, parts and official brand outlets that undercut retail. Compare the delivered price minus the Cashback that comes back on each, using the rate shown on each store's ShopBack page. On eBay, the Buy It Now price is the one that earns Cashback.

The cheapest route is usually a Buy It Now listing with free postage from an Australian seller, bought after you click through to eBay from this ShopBack page. Compare the delivered price (item plus postage) across a few sellers rather than the sticker price, look for the eBay Plus badge if you are a member, and time bigger buys for sale windows such as Click Frenzy, Black Friday and Boxing Day. Going through ShopBack first means eligible orders earn Cashback on the item price, which lowers what you actually pay; check the live rate on this page before you buy. read more

eBay Australia is an established marketplace run by eBay Inc., and most purchases paid through eBay checkout are covered by eBay Money Back Guarantee. If an item does not arrive, arrives damaged or does not match the listing, you open a request from your Purchase history, and if the seller has not resolved it within 3 business days you can ask eBay to step in. eBay states that the guarantee does not replace your rights under the Australian Consumer Law. To stay covered, pay through eBay checkout with an eligible payment method, keep messages on eBay, and check the seller's feedback, location and return policy before you buy. Category exclusions and claim time frames apply, so check eBay's guarantee policy for your item.

Free delivery on eBay Australia comes from two places: sellers who list items with free postage, and eBay Plus, the paid membership that gives free express delivery to metro areas and free returns on items carrying the eBay Plus badge. eBay offers new members a 30-day free trial of Plus. If you are not a member, look for free postage listings and compare the delivered price, since a lower item price with paid postage can cost more overall. Delivery cost and speed are set per listing, so check the estimated delivery date and the seller's location before you check out.

Going through ShopBack is an essential step before you check out on eBay Australia, so you pay less on the same order. Start from this page, click through to eBay and buy at the Buy It Now price as normal; eligible orders then earn Cashback on the item price, paid back as cash after the order confirms. Because it comes back as cash, it works like a discount on the price, not like points or miles. Check the live rate and terms on this page before you buy.
