Windows Live Search Cashback.

#1 Post by RobbieThe1st »

Apparently, you can get some fairly large discounts if you buy stuff via MS's search cachback program(up to 25% now): http://www.theregister.co.uk/2008/11/11 ... _cashback/

What I need to know is how to get the cashback on an Ebay item - I searches with the horrible excuse for a search engine that is windows live search, and didn't get any results from ebay.

I am looking for a AMD Phenom 9950.
I can get it for $185 off Newegg, so I am looking for a substantial discount from that(because of the lack of warranty associated with most Ebay items.

This one is $145 + 10 s&h, but it will be gone by the time I next read this most likely. It *may* be relisted, in which case, if I can get the 25% discount... it would be a really good deal. http://cgi.ebay.com/AMD-Phenom-9950-2-6 ... 240%3A1318

This one is $178 + $8 s&h, and while not nearly as good a deal(133.5 + 8 after rebate), will be around for a while:

So, has anyone used windows live cashback? I am not quite sure how to get my cash back and how the whole system works.

Thanks,
