Any current vouchers or coupons for eBay / Paypal?

Hi all

Got a couple of large purchases to make on ebay and wondered if anyone knows of any current voucher codes, coupon codes, etc. so that I can get me a bargain!

Many thanks

Max

    Thanks for the reply.....

    Any idea what this is all about:

    Also found this, but seems like it will be well out of date:

    http://realfreebies.co.uk/freebies/?p=303

    Anyone familiar with either of these?

    I won't be making my purchase until tomorrow at the earliest. I'll give them a go ion any case and see what happens - and report back with my findings.

    In the meantime, any further advice would be great.

    Cheers.

    I use topcash back for purchases on ebay and get 40% of ebay fees back for the items I buy.

    They sound like cashback sites. You bid via a cash back site like topcashback, you pay after logging in via the cashback site and you usuallly get a percentage of the fees charged.

    AS for codes it is as custardy says, you can only use them if they are sent to you.

    Sorry custardy, I saw the yellow rather than the name. I get horribly confused as well when some of our other regulars change their Avatars.
