Wait! Before you do so, did you know that if you do a search on Live.com that results in a sponsored link click-through to eBay, you can get 25% off the item you purchase if it’s a Buy-it-now auction? To get this deal, just go to www.live.com and do a web search for the item you’re looking for. Then, in the sponsored links section on the right, look to see if any of the links have a “Live Search Cashback” link next to them.

Heck yeah, Live.com just became my eBay search engine. The fine print to this deal isn’t all that complicated either – the only requirement is that you pay via PayPal, which I think most eBay’ers do anyway, right? 

However, please not that you can only receive up to $200 cash back from the Live.com folks, so keep that in mind when you go to purchase that small island you were looking at.
