It looks like you can only use it once, so use it wisely, on some big ticket items. It never hurts to have multiple eBay alias.

Anyone else verify this works for everyone and not just his PayPal account? I've seen a lot of 10% PayPal coupons restricted.

That won''t work unless you have multiple paypal accts - you can only use it once per account regardless of the ID.

do these paypal codes actually work? never used one that ever went through

It's a variation on a code they've been doing once a month for a while so I'm guessing yes. I've used the previous ones successfully.

nice - so this coupon code will be input on the paypal page that pops up after you have made the purchase, correct?

 

[OilOrBust]

To test if this coupon will work for you --

Find an auction with buy it now/instant payment only.

Click through but DO NOT commit to buy. If it asks you to commit, try a different listing.

You should have a space on the bottom right to apply a coupon, put in the coupon and apply. If it works, go buy what you really wanted in the first place!

Just took one for the team.
Initially the coupon was 'applied'.
When I went to pay (hit 'continue') I received this message:

Sorry, that coupon code isn’t valid. To successfully redeem a coupon:

- Confirm your eligibility by checking My Messages for a confirmation email.
- Make sure the email address on your eBay account is also on your PayPal account. Find out how.

Weird... so how do you get a message confirmation without first trying to use it and not working?
