Title: Selling $100 Physical Starbucks Gift Card In Original Packaging!
Post by: nahtnam on August 25, 2014, 07:29:02 PM
Hey guys!

I run a online Starbucks Gift Card business here: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=682712.0 (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=682712.0), and I decided to go in store and buy 5 physical cards each with $100 on it.

I will sell them each at $70 (including shipping to the US). If you live outside of the US (you will have to pay the difference).

Once you use up your card balance, feel free to PM me and I can reload it (pricing on other thread).

I currently have 5 in stock.

*BTC only*. You pay first. I will ship the product with tracking enabled so you can see where the package is at all times!

So you went to a physical Starbucks store to buy these with your own money? Do you have receipts for them?

No, I threw away the receipts. They are in their original packaging.

So your "business" operates just so you can lose money  ???

Are you sure you didn't just load an e-code onto a physical card?

I bought a card in store and filled the rest with an ecode.

That makes more sense. Purchased a physical $5 card, transfer $95 from e-code from your other thread since the ecode is a lot cheaper. Because if you purchased a $100 card with your own money and instantly sold it at $75, you'd lose $25 for nothing, which wouldn't make any sense.

Why would anyone do that? :P

It was actually $15 for each card. They ran out of the $5 cards. If I bought it for $5 each I would have sold for cheaper.

So I could buy one of your ecodes, buy a $5 code myself and sell at about $30 cheaper... I feel you've been caught out a little here. Should have at least been more upfront about them...

I want to buy a Starbucks code but cannot see them being legit at all....

You could do that as well.
