They do have a couple of interesiting "door busters" (Target at 10% off or Romano's Grill at 54% off). According to their terms, they charge sellers a listing fee + a commission of 12%. So it would seems that they use a business model of eBay with less competitive rates.

A few folks here (myself included) had good experiences with Giftcard Mart in the past. I'd love to hear more recent DP on that company. Somehow I started getting vibes that they're winding their gig down (being sloppy or out of reach for weeks). Of course it could just be my overactive imagination, so I'd like to compare notes with their other users.
Of all the other companies currently making the secondary GC market, what are the good alternatives at the moment?

Based on numerous reader comments, there have been serious negative changes following the exit of Blackhawk as their owner.

Giftcard Mart and Cardkangaroo Updates
Miles to Memories published an article devoted to Giftcard Mart. Since July 1 GCM had all their buying and selling operations suspended, with no communications at all to explain their situation. Now they issued a statement for the blog, which by itself is already good news. It appears they're working to resume operations, if they can replace their payment processor. Judging from reader comments, there are no unpaid sellers.
CardKangaroo also has an announcement on their website, that they suspended buying gift cards.
Is anyone still alive in this business?
