i'm gonna assume they get the GCs at markdown (a-la PJ) which is the profit margin. hence they will NEVER have 'cash' GC (VS/MC/AM)
I would settle for Wal-Mart GC's. That is almost as good as VS/MC/Amex.

Even so, after paypal processing fees and shipping the margins must be extremely slim on some of those GCs they offer.  I'm definitely curious to know how this could work.

Also after clicking on "credit card" it froze my browser and then it came back and said we don't take credit cards yet, please use paypal. 
Tell your BILs to just get rid of the cc option until they offer it...
Save your time, I don't answer PM. Post it in the forum and a dedicated DDF'er will get back to you as soon as possible.

MLM? Multi-level marketing?

Correct.  Although it would ultimately be your own decision wether or not to get involved in an MLM, Dan wants to take no part in it and therefore deletes any thread discussing MLM's.

(I was/am involved in a number of MLM's, although most of them are "scams" , some of them are legit. I personally wouldn't mind being allowed to discuss MLM's, but I ain't the boss)

That'd a big "almost".
You can use WM gc's to buy other gc's but It wouldn't be that great of a deal. (Read: not a big money maker).

I wonder how Wal-Mart's return policy works.  ;)

If its a small ticket item and you go without the receipt,  they will give you cash. Is that what you're implying?

check out a site my 2 brother in-laws created!

http://www.youneverlose.com/
one of the creators is my chavrusa, this site is a great idea! the margin of profit is not nearly as much as regular penny auctions but if you have any use for the reward cards then you can only gain!

hey Dan,
this site is different because you really cant walk away at a loss since worst comes to worst you spent money on a face value GC and dont win anything on top of that. and soon the site will take all C.C.'s so itll be a great way to get points as well. Also if someone is going to go to one of these sites why not support frum jews while there at it?

Interesting idea.  If only there were more types of gift cars available.  I'd be especially interested if there are gas gift cards.

Why do I think that having gas or visa cards will take away their entire profit margin.

They can show millions in sales and then sell the company.  ;D

regarding CC processing fee's- i'm sure they get the cards wholesale just like your local supermarket sells GC's and still accepts CC for them
