Im a Powerseller with 1700 feedback and I've never received anything free, but my 5 other smaller ID's always get promo vouchers and codes to get money off your next paypal purchase.

I think its aimed more at the users who perhaps dont use ebay as much, kind of a way to keep you using it.

Its always worth guessing one of those codes when paying for something via paypal, there must be loads out there, words like crayons1 or clouds.

Wow, they're doing eBay sausages now? Are they as good as Richmond's Irish Recipe?
