Ever been to Costco? They sell $50 gift cards for a bunch of different stores, and you only pay like $45 at the register.

I know, $5 isn't much, but it is still lower than face value.

That explains why people would pay less for a gift card but not more??

The parent of my post was asking how it was possible to have a gift card sell for less than face value....
