Ebay Advice

I am starting to buy more and more stuff on Ebay and was hoping someone could tell me of any benefits I could get from purchasing there. I use Paypal to pay for my purchases and thought I saw some threads on bonuses and discounts...can anyone help me out here?

mypoints just upped their points offer on ebay to 4 points per dollar spent. That excludes real estate, auto, and travel categories. It isn't the best points-per-dollar-spent deal on mypoints, but if you are high volume on ebay it could add up quickly.

Do you have to open your account through mypoints, or just click through every time you want to bid?

Easy as pie. You just click through.

At first glance, I thought your post was asking for help with an eBay addiction.

Sometimes I think taking up drugs would be cheaper than being addicted to ebay!

I always go to Ebay thru Bondrewards. I get up to 20% of the seller fees put into my account toward US savings bonds. I have received 1 $100 bond so far.
If you PM me I will send you a referral if you like. If another coupon for Paypal comes around you can use that as well.
