Got my eBay Bucks today and kind a off the wall thought


Has anybody ever heard of buying or sell bucks before. Like you have 500 and told
another person you sell them for 400 meaning you buy what they want and then they pay
you the difference. Yea like I said off the wall thinking image

    I too got my ebay bucks cert today. If anyone is interested in spending my $3.66 please just PM
    me and we'll work out a deal. How about a 50% discount? Yep, I'll take a personal check for one
    dollar and eighty-three cents ($1.83). How's that?

    I wish I could combine the eBay bucks I've earned between several ID's. They should be transferable.image

    If you have a friend, you could cash out the eBay bucks with a little effort. For example, if you have $100.00 in eBay bucks that you don't want to spend on eBay:

    1. Have your friend list an auction of "a bunch of cool coins" w/ no photo and a poor description (to prevent others from buying) and list it at $100.00 buy it now w/ free shipping.

    2. Find your friend's auction and "buy it now."

    3. Pay the friend $100.00 using your eBay Bucks.

    4. Your friend receives $87.20 after eBay fees and PayPal fees.

    5. Your friend then sends you the $87.20 via check or cash. Might even be able to do so via PayPal gift, but that may be seen as a refund of the sale?? If you're generous, let your friend keep a few bucks for the effort. Or return the favor with a similar "auction" of your own.

    6. You each leave each other positive feedback image

    No, you wouldn't get 100% of your eBay bucks in cash, but you get a good percentage of it.

    Note that this is purely hypothetical and I'm sure it would violate a bunch of eBay/PayPal rules if ever carried out. image

    Be careful with this - if Paypal/eBay catches you, they will lock down both accounts.
