New Egg Gift card

I have a gift Card to New Egg (www.newegg.com) for $999.99, and am looking for someone who may be interested in buying it from me for a reasonable price.

We've always allowed local people to sell things here. I see no reason for the snark. It seems reasonable to me for the seller to take a loss in reselling if he is never going to buy anything from that merchant before the card expires.

No different than if I bought a Red Sox ticket for $100, realized I couldn't use it, and unloaded it here for $90.

I think this is just a matter of a too sparse post, it does sound like it could be a scam.

--to the OP: it might be helpful to just add that you are local (and will make the exchange locally) and are willing to let the buyer verify the amount before the exchange.

Another option: I believe gift cards are commonly sold on eBay and craigslist, and just asking for $900 does not seem unreasonable.

I thought I would start local so I could easily meet with a potential buyer. My wife just bought a groupon to Sunapee from a post on this site and it worked out well. I thought ebay and /or CL would really be hard to establish trust.
