Title: Overscratched USA $10 iTunes Gift Card ... auction #3
Post by: Armis on February 25, 2014, 03:12:46 PM
Selling An Overscratched USA $10 iTunes Gift Card

Armis does many promos involving itunes gift cards, a while back we did a number of promotions where $10 gift cards codes was the prize. 

The way we transferred the instrument was to scratch off the 'scratch off' to reveal the code then scan it for email delivery.  At times overzealous scratching resulted in removal of part of the code. since the card has no expiration date we decided to 'bank' the overscratched cards for some subsequent promotion.   Although we had many other itunes promotions since we never went back to those cards, we always bought new ones. 

I have many $10 iTunes gift cards that I intend to auction off individually. 

Auction will start at only $8 to encourage an early response.  You may pay with any equivalent value currency listed on the Cryptsy or Poloniex exchange. 

After receipt of payment and your email address I will scan then eship your gift card to you.  Upon receipt contact Apple customer service with the GCA# who will in turn give you the remaining numbers missing from the code.


Auction is one day only (24 hrs from the start of auction) 


good luck and enjoy

Thanks for your question, I:
1) only have 30 of them
2) prefer to do them individually
3) would provide a max discount of 25%

now why in the hell would you prefer to do them individually?  that's more work for you and a hell of a lot of margin eaten up by shipping

Shipping?  what shipping?  they are e-shipped that means email.


As for wanting to do them individually, I need to make sure that you know the whole process and what you must go though to get your codes, it's not like you just scratch and type.  You have to go to the Apple site, complete the online form, then they send you the code.  I know because I went through it.  Before I take on the hassle of going through it again, I rather sell them at a discount, or just hold them until I'm up for the hassle.


As for your most recent statement, the cards don't expire.

wow, so you're selling itunes gift codes with nothing physical to back them up at 80% face value?

also, your explanation as to why you wouldn't sell them in bulk is nonsensical.  why would you want to deal with all that hassle?

What's the wow about, if the terms somehow seem uninviting let it go.  I'm here thinking I'm doing the community a favor, if that's not how it's received let it go.  Eventually I'll pay someone on staff to communicate with Apple over and over again to get 100% of the value then give them away via an Armis promotion. 

My process apparently doesn't make enough sense to you to follow my direction, so I recommend you simply let it go.

If I win I am not sure how I can transfer the $10 to my account though.

1)  after you receive the scan go to Apple customer service:
http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/

2)  click on itunes store support
https://getsupport.apple.com/Issues.action

3) click on itunes codes and cards

4) click on itunes card code is not readable

5) depending on how busy they are you will have various options, I suggest you used the email or chat option. 

6) complete their information checklist as best you can 
 
a) Your contact information

b) this is for USA itunes only

c) Activation code (enter as much of the code as possible):

d) iTunes Card serial number:

e)  How do I find my serial number?
Purchased from:    [I will give you that info with the purchase]

f)  Briefly provide any other details you think we need to know:
