Me too
 
does anyone know how this works when an item you purchased, paid for, and already clicked the cashback link, is then refunded to you? THe guy I bought a monitor from decided that he wasnt going to sell it 3 days after I paid him.. I got my money back, but will that still count toward the 6 max for cashback? The live.com site hasn't updated for the refund or changed at all to give me any info..

Yes, it will count. I purchased 2 TV's at 30% off, and the eBay store cancelled my order several days later because I changed my shipping address to "Local Pick-up" since I live 10 miles away from the store that sold the TV's. Apparently the store didn't offer local pickup.

Anyways, they refunded me the money for the 2 TV's, and after that happened, the $200 cash back for each TV in my live.com account was gone. I purchased 6 total items using cash back on my eBay account, and I thought since I was refunded on the 2 TV's, I could purchase another 2 items, nope, their system is not that advanced.

Just create another eBay account, takes a few minutes, that's all I did, and link it your PayPal account, and purchase another 6 items.

You can keep on creating eBay accounts to buy things, just remember $2,500 is the max cash back you can receive.

Yup. Though 50% cash back would be nice...

Same thing happened to me on a vid card I just bought, but it was not returned Grrrrr.
After checking my account it indeed has been removed, so beware with this deal currently as Im starting to see a trend

I have been trying to use this for a week without luck... I go to live.com, do a search, and find a link to ebay with the icon for the 30% off, but when I click the link, it sends me to:

http://0.r.msn.com/?ld=2vqgFaT...BIT0fbFt4eG/Yp+Nm2mQs=

And I get an error that the page cannot be displayed... using IE, turned off my security suite, etc...

I see the posts about roadrunner and the redirect issue, but I am using comcast and can't figure out what is up with this...
anyone got any ideas?
 
First try deleting cookies if that dont work .. .Try firefox works everytime for me.

You going to buy an ACOG??? Not a bad idea! They are sweet for 50-350 yrds out! I use a Eotech on my AR and super sniper on my .300 win mag

Same issue, not working... tried IE, Opera and FF, same result...

Already have a TA31F, looking for either a TA11 for a FAL or possibly an Aimpoint T-1 for another AR... Love the ACOGs though!
 
Ok lets try this again. I just did it again!.

1. delete all cookies of browser.

2. exit said browser.

3. relaunch

4. open www.live.com

5. mouse over cash back and left click it

6. type cheap ps3 then press enter.

7. click ad which says 30% at ebay

8. shop

gluck
 
You may forgetting step 5?

What kind of ar(s)? mines Noveske N4 t\\it's good ebay don't sell guns I'd prolly get a POF or LWRC piston gun.
 
Same error...

Internet Explorer cannot display the webpage

same thing happens with firefox

I have 3 Mega Machine Shop lowers, 1 with a LMT upper 16", 1 upper I built using a Sabre Defense 16" Mid length with the TA31F, and the third lower still waiting for an upper... Also have a couple of AR10 lowers I am working on...
 
Strange! Very strange. Firewall, ad blocker maybe?

Sounds like you're an expert gunsmith. I was always worried I'd kill myself assembling from parts God knows I killed enough computer parts.😛

The ad blocker makes the most sense, but I have everything turned off.... its flipping driving me nuts...! 😀

I dunno about expert gunsmith... building an AR is like building something with legos... nothing to it but having the tools and putting the pieces together.... its a lot of fun and its a good feeling when you put an upper together and outshoots anything else you have bought though... you should give it a try!

Thanks for the help!
 
Since were keeping this exactly 52% on ontopic : Try and disable ad blocker, hell for $200 off a Acog boot in safe mode with networking and try.

I know how to build and more🙂 just the legality stuff worries me. Heard horror stories about BATF crawling up guys asses with assembled parts. Least I have some fall-back 'hey I bought this from noveske factory gun works who you licensed to build' Plus I'd rather shoot in my back yard than tinker.😀
