Is there anything they don't sell on ebay? I used to do a lot of shopping on ebay but they are more expensive now so I don't do as much.

They're trying awfully hard for some extra cash! hahaha When hostess went out of business they were trying to sell twinkiees for millions of dollars! Like they would never expire or something.

I just found a very strange thing on ebay:


Someone is selling Amazon gift cards....not wierd

BUT

they are selling a $5.00 Amazon gift card for $10.00;
$10 Amazon gift cards for $13.50
Amazon e-Gift Certificate $493.00 for $845

Am I missing something??????

Sometimes companies will sell a gift card or people will sell a gift card for less than it is worth for cash.  Esp if it is something they aren't going to use.  But the thing is if they have the information written down they can sell the card to you and as soon as you give them the cash they can use the card and you are out your money.  As for the first two maybe they are being bid on and some yahoo has bid more than the card is worth???  Idk.  Why would you pay $10 for a gift card only worth $5.  That doesn't make sense at all.   :dontknow:

Yeah but they could keep it and say they got the last one.  Funny thing is some idiot gave thousands of dollars for a box and now they sold to another company and they are all over the shelves at Walmart. lol

They're probably hoping to sell to those that have ebay bucks/certificates to use and can't use that money elsewhere. Otherwise, it makes zero sense.

Yea it seems foolish at first. Those prices are propped up by foreign buyers, versus a weaker dollar.
