I have one that's legit.  It is for $25.  If you pick a reputable escrow service, like SebastianJu or OGnasty, and you pay the fee, make me an offer.

Thanks!

By only trading with members who can prove the cards are not stolen via receipt. Usually, this means you will not get any great discount. For example, I would trade you a LEGIT/LEGAL amazon gift code worth $50 for maybe $40/45 in BTC.

IOTW, you can't get a great deal on legit cards - anyone offering better deals than that are bound to be carded, stolen or ill-gotten by other means.

Sometimes, I actually do wish to trade an AGC for BTC, so you never know - Post something in Currency Exchange Digital Goods section and state your terms and wishes. :)

How do I get legit cheaper than face value Amazon.com gift cards?

Buy them yourself at grocery stores when they're on sale for less than face value if you have a Vons Club card, etc.

As convenient that may sound, purse.io won't cover you if the product is bought using stolen credit cards, in which case you'd be required to return the item back to amazon or face legal charges and you lose the Bitcoins with which you paid for it. Hence, it is not recommended.

What do you mean by this?

From their site they offer a guarantee which covers costs of up to $10,000, by that I would say if a stolen credit card was used you would be covered for up to a $10,000 purchase.

Purse Guarantee: Customers are covered for any damages or costs resulting from their transaction of up to $10,000.
They are only providing guarantee to buyer/seller that the trade will be completed successfully, the buyer's funds are held in an escrow and are only released when they confirm that they have received the product in good condition. But if it is found later that the product was bought using stolen credit cards than amazon would contact the buyer and ask them to return the product. That won't be covered by any guarantees and good luck explaining to amazon that you paid using bitcoin to a third party site and someone else ordered the goods with stolen cards, not you.

There is a law in the US that protects customers from mistakes of merchants (online / mail order mostly), TLDR that if a merchant mistakenly ships a product for whatever reason the person that receives it can keep it as if it was a gift, that's usually the reason why when you mistakenly receive an item from Amazon and contact their staff they tell you to keep it, while you may send it back you are not obligated to.

The same goes if they fail to do the proper checks on credit card sales, it was thier fault for not confirming the details, the customers case is to blame purse.io in which their guarantee would kick in. The reason the purse guarantee was put in place was when a customer placed an order and police showed up to the customers house due to credit card fraud, purse then created the guarantee to cover legal expenses that could come up due to using their service.

If you want to buy something for yourself or someone you know well, purse is pretty good. They're customer friendly and stand by with buyers, the risk is on the one who earns bitcoin there anyway.

Getting legit amazon codes can be sketchy though, you never know what you're buying unless the seller you're dealing with has a long term reputation. Most people that do that aren't able to offer big discounts though.

AFAIK, the guarantee program is only available if you buy with a discount of 10% or less, then you're matched with their VIP sellers, otherwise you don't come under the guarantee. And if you buy with a discount more than that and something happens then, you might be asked to return the product(s) since as far as amazon is concerned someone else purchased them off your wish list and you didn't paid for them directly. Anyways, to each his own, I consider it still a bit risky, others might not, its perfectly fine.

Nice try but you better check your law books sir.  That law only pertains to items NOT ORDERED by the recipient (some company sends you a book you never ordered then sends you a bill for it) and has nothing to do with items received or purchased by illegal means.  If you receive stolen goods and if you are lucky enough to not get arrested you are responsible to return or pay for them. Ignorance of the law is no excuse for breaking the law.  What you are saying is if some thief orders a $25,000 Rolex and has it shipped to your house with the intent to intercept it before the driver delivers it to you but the $25,000 Rolex gets delivered to you anyway you can keep it.  LOL.

Besides, $10,000 would barely cover your legal retainer if you were charged with a felony.
