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.

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.
That's fast?
I wonder what people who type "u" instead of "you" do with all their free time.

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.
tgi Friday?

Yeah. After I initially put the cards online to get the quote. Mailed them across the country, they verified and sent me a check. Might even have been 2.5 weeks. Not sure.

It makes me nervous - not the first story i've heard about them. Not sure if I should use 'em anyways or wait.

Just sent my first giftcard rescue sell order.  Will see how it goes.

Got an email today exactly one week after they marked the cards received (USPS showed them delivered the friday before) that they have sent the check.  I preempted any identity checks by requesting all forms while my cards were en route.  This might have sped up the process... Still 7 days to process cards and payment is reasonable I suppose.
