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.

Will cardcash/abc accept sell orders for retailers that are worth more even if the card is "branded" another retailer within the same family of companies?

For example ABC and XYZ are owned by the same company and they each accept GC's from the other brand.  I have XYZ gift cards to sell but ABC gift cards sell for more, can I make a sell order for ABC and send my XYZ cards?

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

I've already been through a review where I sent in my ID, info, etc. but now one of my pending sales says "Review2" as its status.. Waiting for the call/email.  Not happy with another delay.

In case anybody wanted to know, I recently sold to Gift Card Zen. Got a good price about 75% and it was fast.
Whole process took about 3 weeks.

I tried selling to them and they got back to me a week later saying that the order was cancelled. No reason.

I emailed them to find out why, and they told me that they have too many of that particular GC at this time.
