eBay launches summer sale with huge discounts and takes a pop at Amazon with cheeky Prime Day offer

There are only seven days to go until Amazon’s Prime Day bargain bonanza begins and just two sleeps until Taylor Swift performs her exclusive concert for the online retailer.

To access the deals and watch Tay-Tay live at 2am on Wednesday morning you’ll need to either have a Prime membership or be signed up for their 30-day free trial .

 

Prime Day is on 15 and 16 July and Amazon hopes it will be as big as Black Friday for UK bargain hunters with massive discounts across electronics, fashion, toys and more expected.

However, rival online giant, eBay has also launched its’ own summer sale with one cheeky offer aimed directly at Amazon.

Every day until 20 July, eBay will drop the price of two items to £79 - the same price it costs to sign up to Amazon Prime for a year before you can access its offers.

The online auction site will have discounts of up to 70% , and will include savings on leading brands such as Google, Currys, Samsung, LG, Dyson and more.

The deals are available now at https://www.ebay.co.uk/deals , so make sure you don't miss out.

Speaking at the launch of the summer sale, Rob Hattrell, VP of eBay UK , said: “We don’t think we should be charging our customers a membership fee for them to enjoy great discounts and offers, and for the next fifteen days we will be sharing our best ever discounts with them."

Shoppers can sign up for a free 30-day Amazon Prime membership trial and still access Prime Day deals and reap all the benefits of a fully paid member including unlimited next day deliveries. Click here to sign up .

Simply cancel your membership before the end of your free 30-day trial or you’ll be charged the £7.99 monthly fee.

Amazon has also launched free trials on Amazon Kindle Unlimited , which gives users access to unlimited eBooks via its Kindle app.
