    Anybody ever used or heard of cardpool.com?

    Its a place that says you can sell your gift cards for up to 92% of their value. Or you can buy or trade gift cards there. I was wondering if anyone has used them and if they're a legitimate company.

    The money guy on CNN was talking about a few of those websites this morning and I think this was one of them. He recommended using them.

    If they did pay pretty good it would be worth making gift cards off my reward programs and trading them in for money. I'd rather have the money than gift cards. But only if they pay good.

    I think part of it is that they pay for their purchase using a (cash back) credit card and they might also get some eBay bucks for their purchase.

    There are promotions that some buyers get that make it so that they might appear to be paying full price or more for a gift card when in fact they are paying less than 50% of the value. Don't know how they do it I just have heard others explain it before.

    Not only does plastic jungle pay for postage, but they pay better than above site and they offer 3 forms of payment...........check, paypal, or amazon.
