Szechuan sauce sold on eBay.
McDonald’s stores across the country ran out of Szechuan sauce quickly today, but that doesn’t mean your chances of getting the precious sauce are over. Many people are now selling it online, and right now it looks like your best options are on eBay. We haven’t been able to locate any on Amazon or Craigslist as of the time of publication. (And honestly, Craigslist probably isn’t your best option anyway. You’ll have better luck — and buyer protection — looking on eBay.) But if you want the sauce from eBay, you’ll have to pay a hefty price.
(Note: If you stood in line a long time or drove a long way to get McDonald’s Szechuan sauce but left disappointed, you may still have a chance to get something for your effort. McDonald’s is telling some customers to DM them on Twitter and they’ll try to make the disappointment up to them.)
Remember, when you’re looking at eBay sellers, be cautious. Read the descriptions thoroughly to make sure you’re not just buying a picture of the sauce. A picture of the receipt, with the username next to it, or the seller holding the sauce packet, is better for proof.
Here’s who’s selling Szechuan sauce right now:
(Note: since sales can happen quickly, these may no longer be available for long. We’ll try to keep this updated as new sauces are available online.)
eBay
eBay seller GoodVibesOn1y is selling sauce packets for $850 apiece. Yes, we’re not kidding. You can Buy It Now for $850 or make an offer with the hope that you can get the cost down. The seller has 100 percent positive feedback, but only has a feedback score of 18 so far.
At the time of publication, they have two sauce packets available. But they started out with seven. It looks like five have already sold. However, those five weren’t sold for $850. The first five were sold for: $50, $70, $90, $150, and $150. So $850 isn’t really a great deal compared to what the other packets sold for.
Since McDonald’s restaurants were only giving out one sauce packet per person, you do have to wonder how they got seven. Did seven people go as a group to buy the chicken tenders and now they’re splitting the profits?
eBay
eBay seller findezel is selling one authentic sauce packet here. So far there have been 68 bids and the current bid is for $177. The sale goes on for 2 days and 22 hours. The seller has an eBay ranking of 312 and provides a photo of himself posing with the packet.
If you think some of these prices are a little much, it looks like someone else already bought one for $250.
eBay
eBay seller rdro2481 was selling this sauce packet for $249.99 Buy It Now. (Yes, $249.99.) However, you could Make an Offer if you want to see if you can get that price down. This seller has 100 percent positive feedback for the last 12 months and a feedback score of 893. Looks like the item has already been bought by someone.
When you’re looking for sauce on eBay, read the descriptions carefully. Some people are just selling photos of source or “information about the sauce” instead of the actual sauce.
Then there are some we’re less sure about.
This person is selling (RARE) Szechuan Sauce McDonald’s Promo,” but their description just reads “1998 Promotional Sauce at McDonald’s! Very limited.” The picture is of today’s sauce packet. The starting price is $450. But the description never says it’s actually the sauce packet.
If all these prices are a little high for your tastes, why don’t you try making your own ?
