Where’s a loudspeaker when you need one? There’s 10 percent off everything on eBay. Yes that’s right. Do I need to say it louder for the people in the back? There’s 10 percent off everything on eBay!
OK so there are a few catches — there always are. But the catches don’t sound so cool through an imaginary loudspeaker.
So the easy bit first: You need to use the code PAYDAY at the checkout. Now for the real catch: There’s a minimum spend and a maximum discount. You need to spend at least £20 and you can only get a £50 discount. But hey, £50 is £50.
Get in there quick because this code expires at 8 p.m. on Sept. 28. Read more…

Ebay’s HeadGaze lets motor-impaired users navigate the site with head movements
The sophisticated head-tracking system like the one built into the iPhone X may have been intended for AR and security purposes, but it may also turn out to be very useful for people with disabilities. A proof of concept app from an eBay intern shows how someone with very little motor function can navigate the site with nothing but head movements.

You know how the saying goes — once you go full HD, you’ll never go back. OK, so that isn’t a common saying, but we’re sure someone has said it at least once.
Even though it might not be the phrase on everyone’s lips, the point still stands. Full HD is an essential for a modern TV and once you’ve had a taste you don’t want to return to a TV that suddenly looks tired.
With the full HD Sharp 40-inch LED TV, you can experience all your favourite shows, movies and more in the detail and enriched colour that we have come to expect from a modern day TV. You can also watch Freeview shows live or record them for later with the Sharp 40-inch HDTV’s record-to-USB functionality. Read more…

eBay have clearly got the Friday feeling and made everything, well pretty much everything, 15% off up until 8 p.m. (GMT) today on purchases on eBay.co.uk.
But first: there are a few rules and regulations to be aware of before you pile that trolley up high. First, you need to make a purchase of £20 or more — easy. Next, enter coupon code PIGGYBANK at checkout when prompted — also easy. The maximum discount you can receive is £50 per redemption and you are limited to one redemption per person — annoying but whatever.
