After you click the link, you will be notified by a screen that 20% live CashBack is activating. But I have no idea how you can tell after that...

That's what makes me a bit nervous.

I am in the same boat. It doesn't say the CashBack amount like it does with some of the other merchants.

Thanks OP. I've been looking around for 30 minutes or so and I haven't found anything good. It seems like most things are at least 20% overpriced. The best deal that I've found so far is the simpletech 500gb mini external hard drive for $139. I guess it's okay with 20% Cash Back but you have to pay sales tax.

I think the only sure way to know if it's working or not is to see the Cash Back during the check out process. Before the last committed step to buy, it should tell you how much you would earn from the purchase. I have used it with success on eBay. Every times it showed the Cash Back amount. I just got a tablet from eBay with $200 (max) back.

I used it on overstock, and afterwards I got an email from Live on the money I earned back.
I might try to buy something small, and see how it works since CC is right up the road from me. But I can't think of anything I want. LOL
This deal is still hot if accurate.

Who cares?

But the answer to your question is msn_live.search.com pays you directly.
We don't know what kind of deal the merchants have with live.search.com.
Are they paying a comission to live.search.com? Who cares?

Live.search.com started back in June with 35% rebates.
Where you been?

CC price is always 20%+ more than Amazon.com, also need to pay tax.

Who cares? I do for one. CC is bankrupt. If it is the merchant that pays good luck. I have used CashBack on live.com many times but I am weary about this one.

dnaL0R said:so the discount never shows up like on eBay, correct? you just get something in the email post-order?

I guess so, at least that was the way I got live CashBack from Drugstore a few days ago.

Uncle Bill Gates will take care of you. Don't worry about the rebate.
The matter of CC is bankrupt might cause other concerns about making a purchase.
Personally, I stay clear of CC and BB because they are overpriced even with a 20% CashBack.

I logged in but I don't see the 20% discount offer.

Moreover, the discount varies based on the product. I just did a search on few products on live.com and the results for Circuit City store had a discount ranging from 3% - 6%. So, looks like 20% discount may be for certain products only and not for all the products.
