buying Google Adwords Promo LinkCoupon

is it ok?

i found some one who want to sell Google Adwords Promo Link $55 Coupon Adword Voucher for 2.99 $

is it ok?
i'm worried of buying it
why should he sell 55$ for only 3$

[trannack]

I wouldn't. Somebody recently got thrown off from Adwords for doing just this - not worth the risk!

[ahmeds14]

thrown off for using a cupon which is issused off course by google adward?!

If you hire a Google AdWords Professional to manage your campaign, they may be able to offer you $100 credit against your account.

so u don't recomend buy such cupones?

[dcheney]

If it sounds too good to be true ... it is.

(Buyer beware)

i found it on ebay
and the seller has a good reputation
i know i could have only one cupon for my account
but i was asking if any one of u has did it before

[trannack]

I haven't - nor would I use a coupon unless the coupon had directly been offered to me. I would not consider using a coupon that was quite obviously intended for another person. I recently was entitled to a coupon for purchasing a new domain/hosting package - however, in the small print it stated that the couplon was only intended for new users of Adwords and was not redeemable if you already have an account. Are you sure that the seller is going to provide you with all the small print that came with the original coupon offer? I would avoid like the plague. The only person I have ever heard of getting thrown off of Adwords was thrown off after purchasing coupons - although admittedly it sound as though he stretched the issue a bit too far. Just not worth it to save a few bucks IMHO. :)

Exactly. Why risk getting booted from AdWords? As a quick search on these forums will illustrate, people do get kicked off (in one recent exmaple, for doing just this).

I wouldn't risk it. Just pay for advertising like the rest of us are.
