Debating if it's even worth $10 to me to sign up to yet another thing that is going to shove "promotions" in my inbox endlessly.
EDIT: Check completed listings (need to be logged in to ebay)
Not to mention, I pay $10 for the card, which requires me to sign up. Wait for it to arrive. List it on ebay for $20, which takes a few minutes of my time, pay a listing feed ($1?), most likely incur a Paypal fee ($.50?), then have to mail it to someone.
The more I look at this deal, the more worthless it seems. I think I've lost $10 of my life already :)
It can also be used to twink an ebay account. Buy a few dozen cards, get 12-15 positive feedbacks, wait 60-90 days until the items can't be verified on your feedback, scam sellers and get a much larger payoff.
Europeans often purchase the cards so that they can buy product, etc.
Interesting concept. Buy $1000 worth of $20 gift cards at face value, sell on eBay. Cash back at 1% is 10 bucks. It is some profit. Not sure if it's worth handling 50 ebay listings, and listing fees probably negate it.
Couple that with the recent $175m investment Amazon made, and yes, it is expensive. Is it a good investment? Bezos makes few mistakes.
Wow.
Dirt, dirt cheap lead generation - well played LivingSocial.
