    It seems like there is no cashback icon showing for eBay.. I tried some keywords such as laptop, hp, apple (which all have been working fine for me)..

    I tried on both Chrome and IE.

    Please let me know if you know any keyword that works for eBay.

    Thanks!

    wii cheap
    t61
    canon 70-200mm 4f
    canon 10-22mm

    I've been watching a netbook on TigerDirect and noticed they dropped the price by the exact amount they had been offering through Cashback (12%).

    Hmmm...

    Yeah, pretty much every seller is jacking up prices when bing cashback was on. TigerDirect especially. I've been watching these for a while.

    I just got 8% cashback last night for a buy on Ebay.

    Not in electronics- in gold bullion.

    So it is working for some things I suppose.

    I did it again, got 8% cash back on a pair of Pamp Suisse Palladium bars.

    Net price was $448 per ounce, spot is $433.

    I purchased an Austrian Gold Philharmonic the other night for $20 below spot ($1120) after Bing cash back.

    I did some searches for the laptop I am looking for on Bing and got a valid sponsored link to Ebay, found a large, well-known authorized retailer's Ebay store, and will be able to purchase the notebook I want for 8% less than anywhere else.

    Will be getting some money in my Paypal account tonight, and I will do the buy immediately afterward. I will post the computer model, retailer and price after I have completed my transaction (they only have a limited number of notebooks on Buy it Now and I don't want all you guys buying them out before I can complete my buy!).
