Disney Gift Card Deals

Yep, done that before works just fine.

Oh em gee this is getting good!

can anyone clarify? If you purchase through the 5x ebay bucks banner in the gift cards section will they credit you after the fact. It seems odd they would have it there and then not activate it during that session. I have tried going through it and going through the checkout process to the last screen but it still gives the standard 2%

What is the advantage of doing this versus more target cards? Just to get a faster flip? Just curious if there is more to the digital gift card route than I realized.

allows you to double flip, say you got 1k ebay gift card, ebay > gamestop > ebay > target you get 200 ebay bucks. instead of just getting 100, since gamestop ships gift cards by email.

Faster flip, and gift cards that don't go through target, making it potentially less likely to get banned from there(?).

Do you have to take those to a GameStop store to get them back to eBay gc?

you have to go to gamestop to do this, they have 50-500 gift cards, but always call your local gamestop first before you do this. some gamestops do not allow you to do this.

I was able to take the $100 sears digital gift card I got 2 weeks (for $85) into Sears and use it to purchase a physical $100 Sears gift card. This means I can take it to Kmart and get ebay cards without a manager override

I already have a shipment notification for my morning order of giftcards from GCM ($750, UPS shipment notification).

I was able to call and get the additional ebucks after the purchase. The representative I dealt with was very nice. I told him where the banner was and he said he saw it and that I was eligible but he didn't know why I didn't get the notification in my messages. Only took about 10 minutes.

But then you also lose the 5 percent redcard discount unless you do ebay-gamestop- ebay-target-ebay , correct?

you have to purchase an item other than gift cards to get the 5% redcard discount.

Okay-I just jumped in! I received the 10% offer for Ebucks today. I went through Ebates and bought a $100 Target gc. I received $10 in Ebucks. Paid with Paypal with my Disney Visa as the default payment for another 1%. So, when I get the Target GC, I'll buy an Ebay gc. Then use that to buy another Target GC with a small item added to cart. I think I have it the process, right? I read through most of the thread. I'm just starting with $100 to get the hang of the process, then will try with a little more later. Our trip isn't until next summer, so I want to start slow.

Very much yes..the small amount is to try and get ebates to trigger money back to you. Also don't forget to use a redcard to trigger 5% off your total. IE select your eBay cards under payment select your red card enter info then go back and add your target gift card as payment..your purchase total will reduce 5%

If you have target cards and switch to ebay you get the 5% and portal with small item, then you can do gamestop or bestbuy from ebay digital, use those to get ebay cards and then go back to the target from ebay. You don't get 5% at gamestop but you get an extra churn during the ebay bucks promotion, so you earn double bucks.

you have to purchase an item other than gift cards to get the 5% redcard discount.

No that is the ebates. You can get the 5% redcard discount without buying anything else.

Correct, but I already spent $2000 through target on giftcards this month, so I am not comfortable doing more. All the non-target giftcards I get do not having shipping costs.

You don't have to purchase anything additional to get the 5% redcard. I often don't, in fact, in order to not have them spend more on shipping than the extra item I would have bought would actually cost.

Since the digital gift card is an instant flip, you'll be able to double the eBay bucks bonus. I've folded over my $200 gift card 3 times already

 

[eeyoresmom]

So are you taking the digital gamestop card into gamestop , buying a physical ebay card then buying Target on ebay?

Okay, just peeking here, haven't read all the day's posts, but darn it there isn't another 5x promo! and my cards still aren't here(stamping my feet as I bought early in the day on that last one just for this reason of another last min offer!), but finally shipped, but wont' arrive till Thursday after the promo! Ugh! But, did notice all this talk of gamestop cards. And some gc's not going thru target is good! So, I'm checking to clarify some things if some could help please.

So, what I'm seeing, I think, is that I could go to GCM and buy say $300 in gc's, digital gc's that they will send to my email, so I can use them from my phone. Then I go to my local gamestop store and buy $300 of ebay gc's. And then I come home and can do another round and buy $300 more in GCM Gamestop cards, and go back again and buy more, and maybe flip again! Is that all correct? Eventually then I'd take a round and buy Target cards to convert to Disney cards, right? (Being that I;m in this to eventually convert for my trip). I did call my local Gamestop and they did say I could buy Ebay gc's, $25 - $500 with a digital gamestop on my phone. He did say to read it to be sure it does that but he did say they allow that. And I just called to verify and he, the manager said they had no limit and I asked if I could do it a couple times if I got more and he said yes, there's not any limit.

So, any of you who are doing this, it seems this may be a good option for now to add some Ebay bucks with a little flipping, lol. Do I have the process down right? And if they allow the purchase, as he said they do, all should go well and I'll make some ebay bucks?
Hopefully the ebay bucks will show up, DD25 got this offer(i did not but i'm at the $500 limit), I see some are having trouble getting the bucks to show.

Has anyone had issues using a gift card to buy an Ebay gift card at Gamestop? I've seen on Cheap *** Gamer that some stores won't allow it. I'm interested in dropping Target out of the loop until it comes time to buy Disney gc because I don't want to risk the ban and Ebay Bucks add up quicker.

Mostly right. GCM doesn't have digital gc's. Paypal digital gifts is the one with the digital giftcards. They have a $1000 limit every 30 days (rolling). So, you could get $500 in game stop, use that to get $500 in ebay, and then do it again, and you'd make $100 off the 2 trips to gamestop. You might want to consider how far you have to drive to get to gamestop if you are looking to do smaller amounts per churn.

Which credit card do you use? I've been using Delta Amex for free flights, but the flight times has been really restricted the past 6 months or so.

I have the Citibank Thank You rewards card. When we were racking up the points we were getting 6% on groceries and gas I believe.
