Seeing all these frustrations just to make 2% cb... which will eventually be lost once a package doesn't get delivered...man...I'll offer my 2 cents.

BGs used to a good hustle...when this thread has less than 2 pages. Now it sucks for anyone new to try:

1. most merchants are difficult to order, especially to BG addresses
2. unfriendly return/refund policy. this is partially b/c of using resller address and also fraudulant "refund groups" were rampant in the past few years
3. BGs lowering payout price. below cost deals started probably 2022-2023, BGs are basially squeezing as much profit as they can. Amazon gives 5% cb? we'll take 3%!
4. If you think everyone uses BGs to earn points you are delusional...stolen goods/stolen cc/money laundrying...all part of the game now that BGs become more popular

Enjoy while it lasts!
