Step 1. Make a Paypal and link it to your Ebay account.
Step 2. Don't use it.
Step 3. A while after you should get a message saying that you have a free $20 to spend on eBay from Paypal to encourage you to get active.

TADA, free monies!

Just got my 32GB Sandisk USB today. :)

Ofcourse they are profiting it's one of the major mediums of selling (paypal+ebay) = what you want whenever you want, just 2 days ago I bought a something that you wouldn't find anywhere except retro gaming shops and it was easy as logging into ebay and clicking bid and win

Ahh I should hunt on ebay more. There was this guitar I saw selling on ebay for arround $200, google'd up the history (I was blobbin) and it was one of those antique rare things where there's like 20 in the world. Didn't get to buy it thought, no money. :D

Please note when buying rare items on eBay, there are many forgeries.

There was someone on youtube examining some Gold he bought through an eBay seller, and it was so thinly plated that it wore of with just handling (he later sanded it down, I think it was something like tin underneath?).

I would imagine the scammers a replicating other things like guitars too etc...

Not trying to discourage you from buying and selling on eBay, just be careful when you buy things, scammers are everywhere.

I've had this offer 2 or 3 times in the past, but never took them up on it. Just didn't think about it I guess. In the future I'll definitely remember to :p

I was going to ask this. Do I have to link it to my bank account? Or can it remain unverified?

It should take a while, by a while I mean not forever but not too soon (no meaning, strange isn't it?). You need to make a new PP account otherwise it wouldn't work because it's for new comers. And should I mention you can't stack e codes, it's a 1 time buy. And it can remain unverified.

Can't you just make another ebay account and send the money to an account with a linked paypal account?

It's not moeny on paypal it's money on ebay, it's like a voucher. You can't get 10% off Pizza Hut vouchers, get 10 of them and stack them up to get a free Pizza. :l
