    Not working for me. Did the search like it said and no ebay link on the right no matter what i search for.

    eta: I found one thing it worked for.. the e8400. Rather limited though and most things are far less off.

    Follow the suggestions on post #2, they work the best, its still working so you're doing something incorrectly.

    Like I said I found one thing so far that showed the ebay 35% off link.. most things aren't showing it and some things are showing a lot less like 2% or 10%.. like searching for ps3.

    Last night, almost everything had a 35% cashback link. Right now, it's only 10% :(

    right now it's up to 20%.

    plus, you can use the ebay code CJUNE0810P to get an additional 10% making the total 30% off when using paypal on a buy it now.

    I tried that ebay coupon and it does not work, it says "invalid paypal user account"

    I'm guessing it's specific to either yours (paypal account) or a certain set of people

    Is anybody else not having the "live search cashback" banner show up when they go to ebay from live.com?

    are you clicking on the link to ebay from live.com? i usually type in wii and the link is in that blue box underneath the section. also, you have 1 hour from the time you click on the link for it to work.
