I know that a fool and his money are welcomed everywhere and that EBAY is a vibrant marketplace that fufills this adage.
But $49 for $50
sorry but imho an absurd concept.
Now if you like to shop at Nordstroms any way , you might as well order a few certs. for this useage its a quality post and maybe should be in AA Forum.
Welcome to FT!
As absurd as it sounds, gift cards on Ebay routinely sell for close to face value. Just the other day I actually saw a $50 card (I forget to what) sell for $50.20. Go figure.
