Not sure if this is valid but thought it was interesting

Save as much as $25 on your next eBay purchase...
As a holiday promotion eBay/Paypal have some special checkout codes that have leaked out to the internet that have some buyers in a feeding frenzy. No guarantees on how long/if these will work, but I have confirmed a couple of them (all for the scientific purposes of helping eBay Strategies readers).
Some ebay sellers are promoting these to their winning bidders as a holiday promotion funded by eBay/Paypal. I'm not sure if you want to do that, but the cat is out of the bag and some sellers ARE doing it. Some are sending it to their top buyers as a thank you.
Here they are:
C1-Holiday2005 - Save 10%, MAX $25 on any purchase.
(Tip: use this one for >$150 and <$50 items)
C2-Holiday2005 - Save $5 on any purchase over $50
C3-Holiday2005 - Save $15 on any purchase over $100
Another way to think about it is based on what you are buying:
$0-50, save 10% (up to $5) using C1
$50-100, save $5-10 using C1, or save $5 using C2
$100-150, save $15 using C3 (15% off!)
$150-$250 - the C1 10% will save you the most, but you can use C3 to save $15
$250+

How do you use these "coupon" codes? details at http://ebay.com/coupons

Coupon is intended for the designated recipient of coupon, and purchase must be made on eBay.com. Good for one item only and discount applies to the item price only, not including shipping, handling, or taxes. Offer valid only when you pay with, and seller accepts, PayPal. Limit one (1) coupon code per registered PayPal user.
Coupon has no face value. Any refund you may be entitled to receive will not include the coupon or its redemption value. This coupon cannot be combined with any other coupon, site discount, rebate, offer, or other promotion. eBay reserves the right to end the offer at any time without notice. Open only to U.S. residents 18 years of age or older.

Any idea if there will be any useful for international buyers. Almost all our customers are non-US, mostly Japanese, or Europeans.
