I'm sorry but I'm gonna have to call bullshit, For a start any business minded person would not turn down profit, if its too much work then you find some Indian web developer and pay them to set you up and run a website for them or list them on ebay via a friend or proxy in another country.
You made it sound like u had physical cards, even if there just codes you can still easily put them in a company database to be emailed out as part of an incentive programme, u could even have them as prizes for a game / gambling site and make even more money.
Obviously you've come to this forum and seen that there is a demand among bitcoin users for amazon services and youve come up with the old scam, Obviously you want someone to sell these for you easily and in there name then when the payments come in you collect it quickly from the sucker seller before angry buyers start discovering there code is made up bs, thus leaving the seller in the shit and you with the money.
lol, no dude, when you've done business, and you've made enough cash that you have the luxury to sit around and do nothing, you turn down profit.
Do you pick up used soda cans everywhere you go? Do you see "businessmen" pick up bottles and cans from the trash as they walk around? Would you call that turning down profit?
See, the profit in these cards is actually very little - assuming 5% margin and $50k, there's only $2500 worth of profit assuming no expenses other than time.
I thought about starting a BTC to Amazon service, which would initially be funded via these cards, and I am still thinking about it, but I would be crazy to spend the time to build that kind of business just to make $2500.
Perhaps you are under the assumption that I acquired these cards for free? Not at all, I chose to receive them as form of payment from a business associate. I have used a lot of these, but this grew into an addiction, and daily deliveries of [insert random word here] which, over time, have started to make me feel guilty - guilty because I am buying shit solely for myself with these, guilty because all of the stuff that I've been buying is usually of very little use to me (I have 4 mini projectors....) or at the very least, it depreciates and will be worth nothing in a few years (and I don't like selling stuff, so chances are, I will have to look at these piles of electronics, friendly plastic, DIY things and tools, for ever, and feel more guilt)
After discussing the idea of starting a BTC-to-Amazon service, which would offer a 5% discount on purchases made in BTC on Amazon, with my associate who would be the source of the cards, I don't think that the idea is viable, at least, not worth the effort for me. No that I don't spend an incredible amount of time doing things that benefit me very little financially.... but running that kind of business hardly seems like any FUN... and I have enough financial freedom to pass on $10k/mo income if it's going to involve working 6h/day either dealing with some idiot programmers in Mumbai, Amazon returns (which would sitll have to got hrough me) and the added risk of a tax audit (not to mention the stress, and extra accounting expense due to this oddball business)
Sure, I can have them as prizes for a gambling site, but you see, if I had a gambling site, I would just buy the damn things, either here, or through a gift card broker.
Finally... I am not offended in the least bit, as this is an internet forum, but many people would get angry over being called a scammer, even though your accusations are based on nothing (have I scammed anyone? no)
Anyway, someone brought to my attention the fact that Amazon also has a site called AmazonSupply, which is like McMaster Carr. This is great, because we have the need for a bunch of parts to install a new reactor at one of my businesses (chemical reacor, not nuclear
) and it looks like Amazon Gift Cards, and Amazon Prime, carry over to the AmazonSupply site. this is why I have put a little over $10,000 aside and am now only offering $39,0000.
Tonight I will find all of the codes and put them all in a spreadsheet, then separate the 10k out. At this point I'll be ready to sell them. I will provide the code first, you can call Amazon, verify it, apply it to your account, and send the amount via BTC only once you have verified everything. I will only deal with members that have a high postcount for now, and will only do things in this order. I just need to figure out how much a regular high postcount member would be willing to sacrifice their account for, and set the threshold at something a little lower than that ;-)
