Holy crap, 35% rebate from Microsoft on certain buy-it-now items. I just picked up a D80 digital camera and got $245 back. Supposedly you can do this 3 times for up to a maximum total of $750 back per Ebay account [probably paypal too], but I'll be completely happy if it works for just the damn camera! It isn't instant, you have to wait 60 days for it to happen, but it looks damn legit. I have a bunch of screenshots I can e-mail if anyone wants to see it before they take the plunge.

Go here for the instructions, I get no money for referencing anyone, this isn't one of those idiotic scams (although I do admit it sounds too good to be true):

be warned, Paypal is getting HAMMERED right now. I remember the $20 back they had on Cyber Monday last year for Newegg...that lasted maybe all of four hours. I have no idea how long this will last, but Microsoft will go out of business if they keep it up for much longer.

Resurrecting this thread to say that I did get paid for this today. I actually ended up buying a camera lens along with the camera. I got $495 but it took 74 days.

Maybe if I see another ridiculous deal like %25 or higher, I'll do this again, but man...that was a three and a half month period of nailbiting not sure if I'd get this money or not.

Enjoy your camera.
I have that same model and it is awesome.
