Disney Gift Card Deals

Has anyone bought and used the $250 or $500 GS gc's from the NGC (NationalGiftCard) seller on ebay? That'd be a nice size to buy, not having to swipe as many cards for a purchase. Have people also had good luck with purchasing cards from Cardency?

I've used NGC before for the $500 and $250 gift cards and it went great. Got my cards quicker than GCM (I'm in MI, they're in IL, much closer than CO) although no tracking similar to SVM.

I'm on the west coast and it seemed like NGC took way longer than CGM, in my opinion. It's great to just slide one card, though.

I finally got denied at a Gamestop that I churned at once or twice with the same employee no problem. I headed out, and went to another one and it went through the POS no problem. I'm thinking about cashing out my $525 in ebay and $500 in Gamestop to Disney and calling it quits for now. It's my girlfriends birthday soon and all she wants is a Disneyland AP. She just might get her wish...
 

Amazon is giving $10 in credit if you order $50 in gift cards today only. It is only for the first $50 gift card purchase. "A $10 promotional code will be automatically applied to your account and emailed to you within two (2) days after shipping." I'm pretty sure it's for Prime members only.

They are having other deals on gift cards, including Hotels.com, starting at 11:49 am PT for Prime members, and BedandBreakfast.com, starting at 8:49 pm PT

I love how every other retailer is having a "one day sale" today with "no membership required"

Power to the consumers!

Yeah you're closer to GCM, makes sense. I have yet to encounter problems at any GS with the exception of being "warned" about using digital cards for GC to GC purchases, even though I was using a physical card at that time. This was some time ago though and I've actually used several digital gift cards since without trouble (although I typically avoid the digital ones ever since getting the warning but the $60 for $50 promos were too hard to pass up).

Thankfully, I have yet to have any problems in my region with the physical ones but hearing of the increase in rejections recently has me somewhat nervous. I'm waiting on $1000 to come from the most recent Cardency promo after which I'm going to start cashing out anyway since my trip is in September. My intent was to begin cashing out as soon as the Ebay bucks were released but I couldn't pass on the $127 in free $ so I took on the Cardency deal. Hoping it doesn't come back to bite but feeling optimistic as it seems like all stores in my region are completely laid back about GC to GC purchases.

I am a prime member, but I don't see that promotion anywhere when I looked on Amazon.

What side of the mitten are you on? I'm in the greater GR area and I have a lot of GameStops around me too. There is NOTHING at that store that I would buy, except gift cards, so I am very nervous about buying a GS card and being denied when I try to convert it to eBay. I have $200 in eBucks so I may try a $50 one and if I get denied, well...then the kids can have a new game for their Wii.

The Ann Arbor area stores will not let you buy GC with GC.
 
Wohoo. Used my AMEX offers to get ready for our Disney cruise and parks trip next month. I bought $50 of starbucks at Joann's fabric and $25 from Bed bath and beyond. So I have $75 of starbucks gift cards for $60 after statement credits. We love to have breakfast at the Main Street bakery in the MK. I also need money for tips on our Disney cruise so I bought $250 of Disney from Best buy online for instore pickup. So I have $250 for $225 after statement credit. So 20 percent (starbucks) and 10 percent saved (Disney) which is not bad at all. That was easy! My last stop will be MACY's to buy a $100.00 gift card for $80 after statement credit. Anyone know if they have Disney or Starbucks?

I need Starbucks for Main Street Bakery too and Disney for onboard rebooking:) so I need to hit up JoAnn's and BB&B. Not sure if I'll use the Best Buy offer since I can do better than 10% at Kroger.

I've never seen gift cards other than Macy's at Macy's. I'm trying to figure out how to use that one too--Clinique, shoes, or NYDJ jeans may be my best bet.

Metro Detroit area and they've always been very lax, except for the one time the person said they were cracking down on GC to GC purchases when using digital GS GC's. That was only once and I've never had any problems since, even using digital on a couple occasions where I wanted to take advantage of the $60 for $50 offers. But otherwise, very lax. As if they encourage it actually. They know me by name at a few stores and always say, "Oh, gift card right?" and they even mention that GC's are considered cash at GS. I haven't been since July 3 though so I hope it hasn't changed.
 
Just a note of warning, just because they are lax, doesn't mean the changes aren't coming. I was in a store on a Tuesday and the clerk was excited to help me pick out gift cards and telling me how he uses his trade credit and gift cards he receives the same way. By Friday it was no longer allowed. I'm not saying it will happen to you, but just keep it in mind.

This 100%

They have already taken Amazon gift cards out of the system nationwide as they are a direct competitor to Gamestop and removed all gift cards off the rack. IMO Ebay is going to follow eventually. The store I got denied from had absolutely no problem with GC > GC previously.

The end is nigh.
 
Out of curiosity, when is the last time you tried?

Last time I went was on June 6. I went to the Ypsilanti store next to Walmart and the guy was super rude and terrible. Then went to Cranbrook store because I had luck there before, but they had no eBay cards out anymore. I ended up trekking out to the Canton store by Target and the manager said they were not allowed to sell eBay gift cards if paying with GCs, but he did some weird thing were he purchased some high priced games, returned them and then bought the gcs all in the same transaction.

All the employees said the regional manager said they would be fired if they did GC to GC, especially for eBay or Amazon.
