strange, you were just trying to buy amazon gift codes from me a few days ago... why the sudden change of heart? 

[OgNasty]

I'll start the bidding at 12BTC.   

[trentzb]

Is there a way to verify a gift card balance and how does transfer occur? Does transfer prevent seller from spending gift card after receipt of BTC?

[OgNasty]

You load the money to your account at amazon.com/gc and it stays there forever, or until you spend it.

[JCbit]

i'll go 14 btc and not a bitcent more

[bou707]

Deal done
btc sent, waiting for giftcard

yea but in the rare case where befor i called amazon cause i goofed up and made another acount on my same email they said they could merge acounts then another lady said no but then the next day the gift cards became unused again and i could move them to the right acount.

When I do it I send it as a gift to your email so that I never even see the code.

Report him on this thread so that you can warn others. I noticed he wasn't listed on the honest traders thread...

the thing i wanted was at a real low price but by the time i bought an gift card from someone the item got sold to someone else

^this should have been a warning

he sent me some PMs, wanted me to send a gift card code first, so I backed out. 

[bou707]

yeah I should had known

I dont know why he has a US Marines avatar if he is a dishonest person, making people who serve our nation look bad

bou707 is a friend of mine and he had me on his behalf contact the seller. I have basically stated that I will be acting as a mediator in this matter and laid out the basis of the complaint. If I do not get a response back in what I feel is a respectable time frame, I will get his ip address, contact the isp and assist bou707 in both filing a police report and small claims court case if the person is in the united states.

UPDATE:
the seller contacted me and said would pay me the $200 amazon gift card plus $15  in 4 weeks for the time
I hope he will honor his word since waiting 4 weeks is a lot.

He tried to sell me an iPad 2 at an unreasonably low price and as soon as I said I wouldn't go first he said that his account was hacked and it wasn't him. Just throwing that out there.

Yeah, I really doubt he will send to you.  Its obvious that he is not trying to redeem his rep if he's making you wait four weeks for the code, especially because that wasn't originally part of the deal, was it?

That said, I had a user offer me BTC for a moneypak and then said he didn't have it right then and it took over a month of me bothering him and finally another prominent user on the forum (who he was dealing with) forcing him to pay what he owed me.  So, who knows. 

15.5BTC for $200 was a little too good, even for when he posted it - especially considering he was looking BUY an amazon code from me just a few days before.  I was suspicious of him from the start.

If you ever want to actually buy an amazon gift code, let me know and I'll give you more of a deal than I usually do.

I would nail him if I were you; highly doubt he'll honor anything..

Interestingly enough, he has three positive feedbacks on bitcoinfeedback.com.
