If it looks too good to be true it probably is . . . just my 2 cents :)

The coupons I've gotten require you to book at least a 6A and at brochure prices. Since brochure prices are double (or more) than what you can get through a good TA, it doesn't make sense to me to take advantage of the "deal".

THis is in that auction, in VERY VERY small print...

 

This auction is for the Poker Strategy Guide, you will receive the cruise as my Free Gift.

To keep Ebay happy, I am giving the cruise as my free gift when you bid and win this poker strategy guide. This guide will give you insight into the world of poker. Great for anyone just learning. So you are bidding on this guide and getting the Cruise as My Free Gift!!

The seller is selling the poker guide and giving away the cruise because ebay requires travel sellers to be square trade verified to list cruises for sale on their site. By giving it away free, they're avoiding going through the verification system. If you're serious about buying any type of travel on ebay, only buy through someone with the square trade symbol in their posting.
