I just put a bid on an exam voucher on eBay. It expires tomorrow and I was
assuming that the voucher had to be used to purchase a registration by
tomorrow (Sunday, New Years Eve.) I just read on Prometric's site that when
you buy a voucher from them, you must sit for the exam before the expiration
date.

Are these the same types of vouchers? In other words, did I just screw
myself?

Probably. This is likely one of the VS 2005 launch vouchers which
expire 12/31/2006. I bought 2 weeks ago and used it. Works great but I
think you're too late.

Awesome. Oh well, thanks for the reply.

In case anyone was wondering, the seller on eBay canceled the sale after I
talked to them. Maybe, next time I'll do a little research before I place a
bid
