I got in before the terms change and I have made several >$30 purchases, but have not seen a rebate yet.

Spend $30 via Paypal at any store that takes it (including eBay) and get $15 back!

I don't think I ever got an email about this from paypal but I went ahead and tried to register for the offer anyway, and it didn't tell me I was uneligible, so you think that means I'll still get the rebate if I make a purchase?
Would it be illegal to use 10 different paypal account to buy 10 $30visa gift cards? Then I'd get a total of 150$ in rebates and still have my $300 worth of gift cards that are basically as good as cash anyway.

You have to make an ebay purchase or a purchase from an online vendor that accepts paypal (goods only). It's in the terms.

no $15 back for me yet. I thought the rebate is going to come in May '07?
I read that somewhere. Maybe on Fatwallet.

They had said the same thing during their last promotion, but people started seeing their refunds within weeks of their purchases.
I wouldn't be surprised if paypal stiffs just about everyone. It's not like they don't screw people all the time with their poorly implimented buyer protection. I rolled the dice and bought some discounted items I needed anyway on eBay, so whether or not I see the refund won't make/break anything for me. Usually with rebates I exercise 'buyer beware' and don't count on it. So far the best rebate return rates have been with Best Buy and Staples.

Well The $30+ that I spent was going to be spent anyway, so I won't feel bad about that...but I will have a "Paypal Sucks Party" if they don't pay up.

I'm not actually gonna do it, I'm pretty sure there's something illegal about it.
lol
But If I dont find anything to buy before the end of this offer, I'll just but 1 gift card.

Well I finally went for this deal with a game purchase from the Egg (Silent Hunter 4) .
I know Iam eligable and my email is good , so now lets see what happens . If the $15 never shows than I'll have paid more $$$ than I'd usually like for a pc game .. . If all goes as planned , then I'll have saved a total of $20 ; this including the added Egg's promo of -$5 for shipping code PAYPAL10 . Not bad if it all works out .
