I went to half.com today and the main page had an offer where you get $5 off any $9.99 or above purchase at eBay when you use PayPal (books, music, movies, and video games, single-item purchase). I got Splinter Cell Pandora Tomorrow (Xbox) brand new for $29.99 by doing this! :)
EDIT: Link to the coupon: https://half.ebay.com/account/auth/navigation/coupon.jsp
EDIT: Apparently, this only works if you've used half.com, eBay, and PayPal recently. :?

Interesting. I never heard of this deal before, so that's news to me. I just used eBay a couple of days ago for the first time in a while, so that's the first time I got the coupon.
BTW, it's sad to see eBay trying to kill half.com. They've been planning this for a while, doing it gradually, but half.com is much nicer and more organized. I'll miss it. :cry:

Its no coupon. Ebay does it when you use all three. they will take off 5 bucks or put 5 into paypal for you. Its just to get you to use all three, Ebay, Paypal, half.com all owned by EBAY.

I've used all 3 this week, and never seen any coupon. Using the link above hasn't helped eaither. I used ebay 3 times, used paypal to pay for 2 of those items. And used half.com yesterday. Used credit card to pay for item.
If anyone has any insite as to how to use the coupon on a future order, let me know.

Haha, it says not valid coupon for me. I did this promotion back in march, and they deposited my $5.00 into my paypal account around may 1.

Im prety sure you have to buy somehting from half, sell on ebay, and pay with paypal.
Its something along those lines.
Or sell on half, buy from ebay, and pay with paypal. (I think its this one)
