Selling GC tips.

Giftcardgranny.com and giftcardwiki.com are good aggregators for best rates. Be wary of selling on Ebay as buyer can put in a false claim that it was empty and you can get screwed.

Cardpool:
Verification: 415-419-8787 between the hours of 1230pm - 930pm ET. Have your order # ready.
Offers an extra 6% if taken in the form of amazon GC and will also pay quicker than a check.
If you haven't heard from them give them a call it may be stuck in verification. Large total value is a trigger.

GiftCardZen:
Will cancel the full sale if one of the GC are incorrect.

In general if an order gets cancelled, it's possible those gc are *tarnished* and you may have trouble unloading them. It is possible these sites communicate with each other in this regard as well. In this case you can do the PITA method of using the GC to buy/return items and get a new gc issue.

Is it possible to print and mail in egift cards, to make a few extra dollars?
Workflowy. You won't know what you're missing until you try it.

Yes
I wonder what people who type "u" instead of "you" do with all their free time.

I'm trying to sell a GC, and it tells me "Invalid card number". However, when I copy and paste that card # into the store's website, it tells me the correct balance.

Any idea why? Could it be something with the pin (contrary to what the error states)?

Thanks

email or call CS tomorrow. I assume you are trying to sell the code and not mail it in otherwise skip it.

I emailed and got an unhelpful response (double check the #? call the company?). I'm trying to mail it in - how do I skip the step of entering the #?

You can send them however you want but if its not certified mail you take the risk of it getting lost in the mail (not a big risk but still a risk)

If you chose the mail in option you need to mail it in
Most people mailing relatively small amounts use regular envelopes if its a significant amount they use tracking and if its a lot of money (a few thousand) FedEx it
