EDIT: $200 live.com/ebay cashback working again :)

It was 30%. I can't find it now. 30 minutes ago it was working, but I wanted to do more research. Bummer.
 
I guess my question about using this in the UK has the answer of 'no'.

Sucks, 30% off a new macbook would be amazing.
 
Is anyone else having problems not being able to add a coupon code? I can't get it to pull up. It just comes up with a page that goes to review and commit to buy. I'm contacting paypal but am not getting anywhere.
 
It's back up!!! I just used it. Seems a bit flaky and I wouldn't be surprised if the deal ends soon for good.
 
Well, after 45 minutes I got NOWHERE. I told them I'm trying to make a purchase the the box that allows you to enter the coupon into is not showing up after the buy it now button. They say that since I don't have a coupon code in My messages, the coupon won't be valid. I explained to them that I was able to enter cvhollidaynov2008 in yesterday and the box came up. Today it won't. They said again, until you are sent a coupon code you can't get the discount. It went in circles the whole time. They suggested I try back tomorrow to see if it shows up. unbelievable
 
i completed the purchase,after payment confirmation i can see that i am eligible for 200$ cashback from microsoft..then in the next page i am made to login to my live account..but but..the cash back doesnt appear neither does the purchase?
does it take time to update or..

update:
got it!!it does take take abt 5-10 mins to update..

now can i make more cashbacks on my next purchases or it is a one off thing?

Does it work with the apple store? If so that would be sick.

The 25-30% large discounts only apply to eBay and only apply to Buy-it-now transactions with Paypal. Live Cashback also has offers for a variety of other stores, but none of them, AFAIK, are anything like the eBay offer -- they're mostly 5% or less, I think.
 
I wish i had known about live discounts sooner. Could have bought a new MBP for $2,050 instead of $2,250. Anyway, the MBP is on its way from Amazon now.

At least I saved $50 on applecare from ebay.
 
It's been about ten days and I still haven't received my 25% discount. I realize that it could take up to 60 days, but it seems like everyone else has received theirs in far less time. Anyone still waiting on theirs?

I have PayPal, a Live.com account, and used buy it now. In my cash back account it says "pending". I'm not too worried about it. Just wondering if anyone is having the same experience.

Yep, my $35 is "pending" too. It will be deposited automatically at the end of 60 days. (It even has a countdown for me.) Some are randomly deposited automatically, but they use the 60 day grace period to defer people from returning their merchandise + keeping the cashback.

Doesn't stop you from reselling it on eBay though :)
 
I tried to buy a drobo and applecare at 30%, but it only gave me the applecare! I made sure the live.com discount appeared on the final transaction of the drobo, but it still hasn't appeared yet. I sure hope it's just delayed as I can't afford to lose a $150 discount! :eek:
