So I bought 10 $100 cards today and submitted a rebate online.

Question: When I was submitting the rebate, I only entered one offer number and one easy rebate ID number.  I have 10 cards on the receipt.  Do I need to enter this information 9 more times or will it suffice with the one submission?

Cashing out the cards.  Now just waiting for AP to finish pending.  I hope it doesn't take too long...

Yes - I just got my $150 rebate confirmation.

2 Ques about APay:
#1- If you do the AP, then can you still make a $1,000 'send money' during the month of November on a real charge card?
#2- Is there a charge for cashing our those 10 $100 gift cards?

Don't worry. It needs time to get the info about your purchase from the store.
It will update by itself. No need for another submission.

I also submitted the rebate to Staples today. At first it looked like only 1, but I got an email about 4 hours later that said that all 10 were successfully registered.I wouldn't worry, all should be okay.

If you enter 10 x $100 VISA gift cards to Amazon Payments, do you have to send $100 ten separate times to another person?  Or can you send $1,000 and the system will continually ask you for more payment methods until you reach $1,000?   By the way, I was able to enter the 10 x $100 gift cards to my regular Amazon account and they are all available in my Amazon Payment account to fund payments.

i tried paying someone after i entered the gc on amazon and it said failed. It seems like you have to paythe value of each card

Buy $100 VISA or Mastercard Gift Cards, get $15 Staples Gift Card after rebate
« Reply #73 on: November 14, 2012, 10:15:06 AM »
Is this still going on? Walked not a Staples today and was told this was a promo only for last week...

Go to staples.com and look at the online circular for your location. It should be there. Print it out just in case.

When I went into my local staples on Sunday. They still had up a $10 rebate poster. Then I looked and that was for a couple weeks ago. So they took it down. Then it rang up with the rebate forms no problem.

Don't forget to follow Dan's hint in his post about entering a different gc expiration date, then immediately changing the expiration date to the correct one.  I was able to send the full amount of the gc after following his hint.  Apparently when adding gift cards, Amazon does a $1 temporary authorization so that only $99 (for example) out of a $100 gc is available to send.  If you wait long enough the temp. authorization should go away, but adding the wrong expiration date gets around this.  If you didn't follow the hint, maybe you can only send $99 not $100?

This problem (usually) only occurs when you add the card before sending the $ but if you "Send $100" and then use a new card they just bill $100 once  ;) (IME but YMMV)

+1 When I sent $100 10x, I added the cards when it asked me to select a payment type.  I chose credit card, add new card and it worked like a charm.

I have an amazon payments account, but I'm not sure how to load the gift cards on it.  I only see the ability to add funds from a bank account. Can someone point me in the right direction.  If it's better, you can PM me.

Thanks
