There have been so many messages that have come across my lap regarding the spend $10,000 at a cost of $25 from this original post. Many more requests have come because of yesterday’s post on what I did with eBay and Target. For all those that got into it early, congratulations! You were able to get into a limited time offer. I say it’s nearly over because the new rates won’t go into effect until some time next week. Sure the better rates are still ongoing now, but I don’t think you’ll have enough time to buy the cards today and turn it around and sell it.
With the current messages that require an answer, I’ll respond as soon as I can. Unfortunately, for those still wanting to know and haven’t asked, I also will not out this method publicly.
Deal Differences
The reason why I will not out this method is because there has not been a sweeping policy change like Target. Because of that policy change, I outed the method because support for a 90% rate doesn’t seem like it will be back any time soon. The $25 method will come back. When? I’m not sure, I’d imagine after all of the gift cards sell and the market can support paying a higher rate for the gift cards to reenter the secondary gift card market.
I saw this post on Doctor of Credit where he linked to Miles To Memories’ post on Gift Card Wiki. This is a site I wasn’t aware of previously and is quite comprehensive and much better than Gift Card Granny. With Gift Card Wiki, I was able to see the spike in inventory in this particular vendor in the last 5 to 8 weeks and that is causing the downward pressure to the rates. The site is pretty awesome, stay tuned for some of my thoughts on the site.
Depending on the card, you can do $10k for $50 on visabuxx for those who still have it. Pretty easy and painless.
That’s one way to do it! This method used the AMEX card
Would love to learn another method in case I need to generate a bunch of SPG points in a hurry. Does the $25 method work with AGC?
No, unfortunately it does not
Yet, it involves an Amex card! So it would work with the spg cards. How can I find out more?
Does it involve Amex OPEN?
