The method
A "50% off" badge is only worth something if the original price was real to begin with. Before anything goes on this page, we check the listed price against the brand's own site or a comparable major retailer, not just against a number the seller picked. That's the same process behind every category on halfornothing.com.
We measured this catalog against our own price-tracking data before publishing it: 66 of the 71 listings come from sellers already on our vetted priority list, not picked cold off a search result. The oldest of them has real price history on Half or Nothing going back to August 11, over three weeks before this catalog ever went up, so the "was" price isn't just a number the seller typed in today.
Read the full breakdown in How to Verify a Real Online Deal, or see how the site itself is paid for on our About page.
Questions
Anything from a category the recipient already reaches for on their own, at a price that would normally be out of range. A watch, a real fragrance, or a piece they'd hesitate to buy at full price all work, especially at 50% off or more.
A guideline for gift-giving that says to buy something the person wants, something they need, something to wear, something to read, and one more thing. It keeps a gift list from becoming either one expensive item or a pile of small ones.
Watches, fragrance and accessories consistently rank as the most-searched Christmas gifts, since they work across age and relationship without needing a size or a strong personal taste.
Check the listed price against the same or a comparable item on the brand's own site or a major retailer. A real 50% off discount holds up against that comparison. See our full breakdown in How to Verify a Real Online Deal.
Everything above was verified live at publish time, but resale inventory on eBay turns over by the hour. If a specific listing sells out, the category page it came from will have similar items at a similar discount.
Every pick we've pulled at 50% off or more, in one place.
