Up to 30% off ebay items using Live.com search!

Post by dgoodhue »

I coppied and pasted this from another forum. I have used it few times so far.

Hey guys, just wanted to let you know that I found something that Microsoft has been doing since May to get more people to use their search engine, but many people don't know about it!


Go to Live.com and type in any product in the search field. The first link is sponsored by Microsoft and its to ebay with 25%-30% off a purchase. The item you buy off ebay doesn't matter, but the item you search for on live.com depends on the % off. You need to make a live.com account too (I just used an old hotmail address I had)


Heres the catch:

- You can only purchase Buy It Now items
- You can only use the cash back program 12 times per ebay account
- The maximum cash back is 200 dollars per item so 12 times 200 is a potential 2,400 cash back(hey not bad for buying that new DSLR camera etc. etc.)
- You must wait 60 days to redeem the cash back

You just have to make sure it has the cash back banner at the top of the ebay screen when you bring up the item.

As always this is dealing with money, so read the terms yourself (its not very long and easy to understand) in case I left something out.

Ebay will send you a letter once you purchase the item to I guess "activate" the cash back, which can be sent to you in a check or added to your Paypal balance. Just make sure to check your mail after the purchase or you won't get the money.

I've already used it on a couple items and got 25% off each one

Stupid thing doesn't work in Canada. So you've successfully completed this ? Do they add the $$ to your paypal or mail you a cheque ?
