It's YMMV, because it's only for those who got the email.


Hurry and use this before MSFT CashBack comes back


you are one day to late!!! i just spent $1000+ on eBay last night. I was trying to get the code "CAUG2008CSA10P" and couldn't get it to work. To bad i didn't know about this one.

No, you were one day too early. Not OP's fault that you made the purchase when you did!


I just got it also.

yep. Too bad lots of idiots post these deals.


worked for me and i didnt get an email. thanks OP! you saved me four bucks

EDIT: tragedy! i guess i posted too soon. i got an error that said it was linked to another paypal account. oh well thanks anyway!


why don't i ever get those emails?


havier123 said: why don't i ever get those emails?

You probably buy too much already. Make a new account and use it infrequently.


Does anyone know if this is a 1 time use only coupon?


I've only bought 1 thing on eBay in the past 1.5 years, and still don't get the email...


Really makes sense only to use if you are not buying a "buy it now" item; with buy it now you get much bigger discount (15-35%) with LIVE.COM. This 10% offer can not be combined with any other offer.


This redemption code is linked to another PayPal account and can't be used with this PayPal account.

Why are they "idiots"?!? I never got an email for this coupon...but, when I go into my eBay account,
it shows up. If it weren't for someone posting this, I might've never even looked or knew it was there!

So, thank you to the OP on this one!...GREEN for you!!
NOT "Red"...and stupid comments from "Senior" members, nonetheless!!


Really wish I'd actually be able to use one of these eBay/Paypal coupons, even just once... I've got three accounts, one heavy use, one regular (1x/mo) use and one very very little, almost no use. NONE of them has EVER gotten in on the coupons... bah!

I know the usual advice is to have a little-used account, but I have two of them that pretty much meet that definition, and one that DEFINITELY does. So it's frustrating... </vent>

Green for you, OP!


I spend more than $2200 last early this week at eBay. I wish I had the coupon. I has three accounts too, and got nothing.

I combined a 10% coupon with the live.com CashBack when it first came out at 35% and have cashed out the CashBack from that purchase.

i read on another forum that the 10% off coupon works with live.com CashBack. is this not the case?


worked for me! Thanks OP!


Seemed to work on my account too.

Thanks for posting!


Is there a secret to getting PayPal/eBay promo emails? I have been a PayPal member for a while, and even went for a while without using my account but nothing came.


You can still dip an additional 10% off from MSN CashBack, search for "nintendo wii" on live.com to find that little button in the sponsored ad areas.

Actually, I'm thinking it's more or less the opposite. I usually get these coupons, and they say something along the lines of "Thank you for shopping on eBay" (or in one case I think one was targeted towards frequent sellers.) Over the past year or so usually I spend a few hundred a month on eBay then end up selling about the same amount. (a lot of it was shopping for camera lenses since I bought a DSLR about a year ago...I had a hard time deciding which ones I like )


Update: spoke too soon. It "took" when I applied it in eBay but said it
was invalid when I went to checkout using Paypal. WTF?


So glad this was posted. Got to save a few dollars on some eBay purchases I just made.
Thanks, OP!

One hangup with the coupon for me was that my paypal and eBay email addresses were not the same, when I made them the same (changed the PP to match) the coupon worked.


doh. doesnt work for me


only 8% for eBay


same emails...takes in eBay total..as soon as you log into paypal...its Invalid

"This redemption code is linked to another PayPal account and can't be used with this PayPal account"


Hi to bopc1996--
Can you let me know how to use live.com for discount on Buy It Now items on Ebay? I couldn't get to the item I'm interested in through the live.com site.
Thanks in advance.

So this whole deal is that "one" must received an invitation before the coupon code will work?! I am lost because it is not working for me.


I actually got the email and ebay shows the 10% ad when I log in. When I tried to use the coupon, it told me I couldn't.


It might be email address driven.


So anyone can use this coupon or only for those intended recipients? And is this a one time use only or can be use by many people until it expires?


I've given up on trying use Paypal codes. They are account specific and unless you have been specifically emailed them by Paypal or eBay they are unlikely to work. I tried contacting Paypal to ask why I hadn't received these promotions when others clearly had but just got a garbled response from them.

The best way to make saving via Paypal & eBay is to sign up to the following free website;
