THE SPOT
In the :30 "Cubicle," an anxious eBay bidder makes several excuses to return to her desk during a business meeting. Thanks in part to her MasterCard, she finds out that she’s the high bidder for a Marc Jacobs handbag and yells out, "Yes!"—distracting her co-workers from their meeting. Sheepishly, she makes it appear as if she finally found the three-hole punch she was searching for. The :30 ends with the voiceover saying, "Victory: Priceless," and touting MasterCard as the "preferred card on eBay."
Spot broke Sept. 13.
