I just got dinged 20.75 for a $25 GC i sold to ABC/Cardcash for it being reported no good. I don't know if there is recourse for sellers but I can assure you (and them) that I didn't retain the GC number and use it after I sold it. Think I'm about done with them.

Why did they only charge you 20.75 for a $25 gc?

They took $20.75 from a recent payment to me b/c that's what they previously paid me for the GC. I have tweeted to them which usually gets a response but I'll have to call/email today. It was ABC/Cardcash, physical card.

They shorted me more than once and there is no one to talk to. I stopped buying GCs to sell to them. They wouldnt buy back a GC that they sold on eBay either.

Email dansdeals@cardcash.com

I've always gotten the best/quickest response from there.

Is it just me or is Cardcash/ABC inventory for buying terrible these days. I really only like to deal with them b/c of their protection policy and obviously 5x... But it just seems like they never have retailers i'm looking for these days.

not just selection, but discount has slipped as well. I will only buy gift card for minimum 15%-20% off (not worth hassle for less than that), and I feel like they have tried to increase margin so much less deals than before.

I will say that I have used CardCash many times in the past without issue.

Raise.com is refusing my payout until I send in my id and tax forms. Had this happened to anyone and is there any way to get them to make them pay without giving it to them? Pm's welcome.

I received a $100 gift card from Nordstrom that I wanted to sell to cardpool and I noticed they offered me 92$ a few weeks ago. I only had a chance to actually sell it now and I saw that they lowered the price they were offering.. is there a best time to try to sell gc (ie should I wait till Jan..)? thanks!

Presumably they only offered it for mailing in physical card, but even so, I wouldn't rely on such a high payout returning.

Welcome. Fluctuations are normal and not so predictable. Search different sites (giftcardgranny makes that easy). Also there are often threads in the goods for sale board on ddf for buying and selling GC at better rates than the sites (on both ends). Here's the nordstrom thread: http://forums.dansdeals.com/index.php?topic=64841.msg1561978#msg1561978

Why is this thread in "just shmooze"?

Was just going to ask that.

And the answer is...

Mods, please move to GFST board.
