When will you put 200 or 250 usd cards for automatic buying? 100 doesnt buy much nowadays.
We will increase to $250 cards in the future but are unable to do so at this time due to logistical issues.

Site seems to be down, in some kind of redirect loop between index.php and message.php.
The site is up without a problem. Please contact support with your IP address and username. Also, be aware that TOR originating traffic is being rejected as well as those accounts that have been linked to scammers and those who have been shills recently and in the past.

I went to grab a card this morning (pretty surprised to see any available), but the order process got stuck on the "generating bitcoin address" part and never got past.
This is an MtGox problem. We are waiting for their response with a solution/bug fix. In the interim you can load funds on your MtGox account and send in payment directly from the account. If they do not fix the issues by this weekend we will be moving away from MtGox merchant services and providing our own.

From 15 to 3...... 3 left.. come and get em...

Back in stock. Mtgox is having trouble generating bitcoin addresses so you will have to checkout with your MtGox balance.

From what the banks that we deal with state they should work in all but OFAC Listed nations. We have no way to confirm this and thus can't guarantee or provide support to those outside the U.S. until we can confirm.
Just to check here, does your FAQ state the cards don't work outside of the US because you can't confirm 100% otherwise? Or have you confirmed that they don't work outside of the US? I can understand you saying they don't work outside of the US as you havn't confirmed, because they can't get blamed if someone tries the card in another country and it doesn't go anyway. I say that because I figure a US gift credit card should work anywhere where a US credit card would. I'm in Canada, and I'm presuming that I can use a gift card anywhere in Canada where a normal credit card would be accepted. They should work wherever U.S. cards would normally work according to our bank as long as it is not an OFAC Listed nation ( http://www.treasury.gov/resource-center/sanctions/Programs/Pages/Programs.aspx). Unfortunately we can not confirm this as we are U.S. based. If we receive reports of working/not working countries we will include this in our FAQ.

It seems some people have bots set up. As soon as I bid I am "outbid" instantly.
Or is this some strange option in your site?
If you place an amount higher than the current bid the site will bid on your behalf until it reaches your max bid amount. This is called "Proxy Bidding" and is the standard for online auction sites.

Has anyone used one of these cards sucessfully in Brazil yet?
The site has an updated FAQ that says that the cards will not work outside the US. From what the banks that we deal with state they should work in all but OFAC Listed nations. We have no way to confirm this and thus can't guarantee or provide support to those outside the U.S. until we can confirm.

Card stock will not be replenished tonight as we enable our new site design and test for bugs. We will resume business as normal May 18,2011 @6PM EST with a fully automated system.
Has this also slowed email responses? I emailed about 24hrs asking if you'd mail a card to Canada for an increased fee with no response. If you're busy with site overhauls, I quite understand. Site overhauls have brought our response time to approximately 16 hours instead of the usually 4-6 hours.

Due to the ever increasing attacks from the Tor network, we will be blocking all tor originating traffic. We understand this will inconvenience some users and are working on an alternative way for Tor users to access our site while maintaining site security.

You you guys refill stock even on weekend nights?
Yes
|
|

You might have a hard time finding someone willing to do that as if you start to mess up on there they would be the ones responsible for inviting you. You should try contacting the site owner to see if he will add you.
*Edit* If it's remembered correctly,and correct if wrong, this was also the initial reason to go an invite only basis. The initial trusted members could invite others in which they trust; This would make trading safer.

Is this only for U.S. customers? From what the banks that we deal with state they should work in all but OFAC Listed nations. We have no way to confirm this and thus can't guarantee or provide support to those outside the U.S. until we can confirm.

I hopefully just grabbed one of your last $50 cards, but I'm a bit confused on how this works. I directly sent the Bitcoins and then hit the "I have sent payment" or whatever button... so how on earth do you make the connection between my email address/order and the completely random payment of Bitcoins to your address?
After supplying your e-mail address on the site we have custom code that we wrote that tracks orders,inventory and payments. We then get notified to dispatch your card and we send the card out to you.

One last thing, if I withdraw all of the funds of the Virtual CC to Paypal, it's good as disposed right? Thanks! I find that you're always out of stock. I hope I get the chance next time.
Yes, you can just forget about the card information and be done with it. Unfortunately we run out of stock faster than we would like as the demand for our cards backed by our customer service makes people want them more and keep coming back. We add cards daily between 6PM-8PM.

Just a question, can I link the virtual credit card to Paypal? Then withdraw funds from the CC to Paypal? I'm asking because the only way I can get my money to my bank account is through Paypal. Thanks for the answer.
Yes, this should work. Keep in mind paypal authorizes $1 on a card when you add it to make sure the card is legitimate. This will temporarily decrease the card balance until it is cleared. We also plan on supporting Dwolla. We are working on the details of the best way to handle those transactions.
