Even if I could do that, which I highly doubt, based on payment method restrictions for prepaid visa's, I still wouldnt. Not going to give Walmart one cent of business.

Is that $200. per card, or total? ---Why do you hate Walmart?---3miles away--Go there to use moneygram all the time, they have their place in the retail world.

If you're American there are a few websites that buy them at a discount. I've not had any experience with them though. I usually e-bay cards that have no conceivable use to me. The best value however is just to use them at the store.

Versus selling them and let someone else give them the same amount of business? :+clueless

Given your stance seems like a bonfire might be your only option...

Yes it may seem silly, and I may seem to be cutting off my nose to spite my face, but, I have my reasons.

:lightbulb:

When I put them up on Craigslist I asked $800 for the pair, or $420 each. I received an offer on here for higher than that, but think the guy was just fishing or something, have not heard back.

Re: Best place to sell gift cards?

why not put them on ebay and get 490+ each?

Girlfriend said there is high rate of charge backs on gift cards at ebay, plus the 4% paypal fee, plus the 10% ebay takes, not really worth it.

will probably just give them away as christmas gift or something

What if somebody sold you a gift card that was used? How could you even prove there wasn't money on it?

Good question, I do not know. One guy wanted me to scratch off the pin.... yeah, ok.

Selling or buying gift cards just seems to risky...better off giving as a gift or giving a friend in real life that shops there 10% off face value or something.

I've sold a couple thousand dollars of gift cards on e-bay and never had a charge back. I physically mail the card only however and state specifically in listing that mailing card # is unavailable. On average I lose about 15% of face value due to fees which sucks.

Barter them to a Latin American crew for work around your house. I suggest the parking lot of Home Depot.
