I got it, it's targeted at very long-time eBay customers:

A special $25 coupon just for our first members
Manabi, thank you for being with us from the very beginning! Here's a coupon for you, plus a look back at your history with us.

It really did have a look back at my history, showing when I joined, the first purchase they have a record of, my first sold item, first app purchase (none), first offer (none) and first watched item.
Of course the memories are screwed up a bit in that they apparently didn't keep data from the first several years. It shows my first purchase as being in 2004, but I know I was buying stuff the first year I signed up, in 1999. Still, it was kind of neat to see what they did have data for and I
definitely appreciated a free $25. (It was good on any purchase of $25.01 or more.) I ended up buying some shirts I had planned on getting soon.
