Title: What gift cards do you want?
Post by: Kais on August 27, 2012, 01:21:53 PM
Is anybody here looking to buy gift cards? If so, which stores are you interested in and how much would you would be willing to pay for the amount you're interested in?

Best bet is various amounts of Amazon GC's (US usually since they're region locked) since Amazon just offers great prices on so many different things.

As far as prices go, I'd say anywhere from like 80-90% depending on what you're comfortable doing.  You could probably just ask for face value too but you'd probably be limiting the amount of potential customers by doing so.

With that explained, lemme know if you have any available.  PM or here is fine.

Amazon and maybe Newegg seem to be the best sellers.

CellCoin, BitcoinWireless.com, and BTCBuy.info are competing for prepaid phone card already.

SpendBitcoins had been offering Kroger (Ralphs, and others), Costco, and Southwest Air among others but got out of the U.S. market recently.

I'ld like to see the ecodes / vouchers for Alice.com be offered.  There are a lot of people who don't spend much but do buy foodstuffs and other items, and Alice is ships anywhere in the U.S.:
  - http://www.Alice.com

Keep in mind, you are now competing against 1% withdrawals for PayPal (which can be used for purchases using the PayPal Mastercard debit card).  And then the BitInstant debit card (if / when that actually comes out) is 1.5% fee.

But for things like a gas card a parent might buy for a student, even a little premium might be acceptable.

If there are cards you can obtain at a discount, then that is where you have an advantage where you can sell them at face value or so, and profit from the difference.

To show that you are not using a stolen cc, buy the gift card with cash at store.  Ask for receipt.  Scan receipt showing cash payment, date, time and amount.

I'm most interested in restaurants. Applebees, Carrows, and Dominos, particularly.

I'm accustomed to getting a discount for them (10% at least) but this seems to be a normal discount for the gift card secondary market (http://plasticjungle.com) anyway.
