I usually use eBay gift cards that I’ve bought at a discount, but the nice thing about this is that it should work for things that they no longer accept gift cards for, like coins and gift cards.
“Orders must originate from, and ship to, a U.S. location”
I’m guessing if the shipping time is > 1week then it’s suspect

Guessing you want to make sure not to pay through paypal for this one….
Is eBay not selling eBay GCs?

Time sure flies, it’s already been 5+ years since the good old days:

Gosh, it’s been a while
just buy a gift card
where?
Did you do it and get the AMEX offer verification afterwards?
Did not do it yet, but it seems that gift cards are not excluded
So, does the $15 include sales tax? As long as the purchase is sent to AMEX as over $15 I get $5?
The total just has to be at or above $15.00, and you’ll get the credit from AMEX.
Of course note the requirement of buying from a US seller and shipping to a US address. Not sure how they’d enforce that, but an easy one to abide by.
I’ll use this after Xmas when the unwanted/unreturnable gifts flood Ebay.
what happened to SVMgiftcards? anything similar? been out of ebay game for years…
