Lets talk Ebay Vouchers and 2nd shot.

J.Tot

So I'm prepping for 70-410 and have gone through all the normal voucher sites. A buddy of mine bought a voucher off Ebay at the great price of $99.

I'm not to worried about safety, there are others here that have used ebay. My question is, if you buy a "single-shot" Voucher, can you still use Microsofts Free 2nd shot?

No, if you buy them from a 3rd party, and they are labeled as single shot, they are labeled that way because they are only good once.

I have used single shot vouchers from ebay before. I only recommend them if you are really confident you will pass, because the 150 for 2 chances is much better that 99 for one if you fail... haha

I can confirm that - I did that a few years ago and it was only a single shot. There was no option to get a second shot. I even tried calling the support line and pleading my case to no avail. (I knew a head of time and was warned about this when I purchased but I called because I figured it was worth a try)

I will say, there is a certain motivation to work a little harder when it's a single shot... haha

I paid 99 bucks for a voucher, which was a 50 percent savings from the 150 one, but if I failed, it would be 200 and a 50 percent increase... so, I really went hard at the studying... lol
