There is some risk involving GC... for example, if a dude bought $500 card with stolen CC, when CC company issue a chargeback, the GC gets invalidated. And it does not matter how many GC you transfer on, they will get canceled (happened to one of my buddy).

So, my recommendation is, only buy them if you alrdy have sth in mind to buy. Thus, meet the seller in the store, buy your shit right away and then pay the seller.

I did it with my original iPad purchase, got a sweet deal on it (I think the dude sold me something like $37x.xx for $225.)
