EBAY affiliate program and Savings

As promised, here is my post to update you on becoming an EBAY affiliate. After doing a few hours of online research, you can quickly create a specialized website dedicated to a niche product offering through EBAY. With this newly created website, you would be expected to invest some $’s and time to get this site to a profitable position.

With all of the said, I decided to sign up to become an EBAY affiliate, I will make a portion of FinancePuzzle dedicated to this initiative. In scanning all of the available categories that I can select from, I have decided to go to route towards the Gift Card auctions. I think this is one of the easiest ways to create value as I have posted on this concept before with the BestBuy post.

To see all of the latest Gift Card deals on EBAY, just head to the navigation bar at the top under the FinancePuzzle.com logo and select the Gift Card Deals page. From here, feel free to browse the available deals or click through to see a larger data set.

Also, EBAY is running a 10% off sale on all auctions that are completed as of June 30th, 2008. Withthis coupon, I just recently saved 23% on a gift card purchase. I won an online auction for a $100 gift card with free shipping for $86. When I went to pay via PayPal, I applied the EBAY 10% off coupon and only transferred $77.40, a savings that I will be depositing into my savings account.

This coupon is why you might see some popular gift cards (i.e. Walmart and Target) selling for greater than the face value of the gift card, such as a $500 gift card selling for $515…

Author Disclosure: I currently do not own any shares of EBAY
