The Offer
Update: They are also selling $50 gift cards for $45 and $25 gift cards for $22.5. You should be able to add three of each per order.
Update: It looks like the limit of three is only per order and not per account. Buy multiples at your own risk.
- Target is selling $100 eBay gift cards for $90 at Target.com
The Fine Print
- Limit of three
Our Verdict
The best way to maximize this deal is as follows:
- Purchase $300 in eBay gift cards for $270
- Do a partial payment using Target giftcards and then a small amount using a Target Redcard (Redbird), you’ll need to select the credit card option then input your redcard number. This will save you another 5% or $13.5.
This deal is even better as you might have Target gift cards that were discounted from a previous eBay deal, but even if not you’re paying $256.5 for $300 in eBay gift cards which you can use in the future for eBay gift card deals. As far as I know you won’t earn any cash back or miles for gift cards on Target.com by going through a portal, but it never hurts to try and see what happens.
Hat tip to @esthery on Twitter
I received the gift cards but none of them will actually work! I can put them in on eBay but Paypal is denying them. Anybody else?
I just attempted to use one of my three $50 codes and it appeared to accept it just fine.
I did not follow thru. Just a test to see if it would deny it or not.
I have spent all mine and my wife’s ebay cards ( 6 $100, 6 $50, 6 $25) and all fine.
Tried again for three $100s and the order was rejected about an hour later.
Why not just say they are no longer offering $100 cards if they are not ?
I was actually able to (finally) buy 3 of the $100 cards yesterday. I got no communication from them for about 12 hours after purchase, but they finally came through. I also got 6 each of the $25 and $50 gift cards, so I’m up to $750. I tried to buy two more $100 cards this morning (they wouldn’t let me buy 3), so we’ll see how that goes.
Are you using different emails or the same one ?
My orders all say “shipped”, but I did not receive the information. I’ve searched my email, including my spam folder, but they’re not showing up. Is anyone else having this issue, or just me? I ordered 2x$100 that were canceled, so I ordered 2 more that were shipped, also 2x$50 and 2x$25. All say “Shipped” and I haven’t received the info for any of them.
All my orders say shipped, including the ones that were cancelled. I’d just wait.
I never received the emails, but by going to targetecards.com and inputting my email (associated with my Target.com account) and order #s I was able to access my gift cards. Hope this helps someone else.
Anyone have any luck with TCB or Ebates giving cashback on your target purchase? just in general, doesn’t necessarily have to be this transaction.
My order for 3 $50 cards paid for with target GCs came thru in 45 minutes.
I don’t have a redbird or whatever so I didn’t get an extra 5%.
I guess I may go back for 3x $25 more just because 10% is 10%. Plus, I have an extra $4.96 remaining in a target GC.
Wonder if they are just out of $100s ?
Just bought two more $100 GCs….bought 3 yesterday or day before. The 2 I ordered today were delivered a couple of hours after I ordered. Used $100 Target GC and Redcard to pay.
Was anyone able to buy 3 cards of two different amounts in the same order? For example, buy 3x$50 and 3x$25 in a single order? Or is it 3 cards max (of all types) per order?
Do we know if paying with Target Gift cards is the problem ?
I tried to use up 4 old target giftcards for part of my $300 order.
I was happy to use them up because Ive sat on them for years without using them..
But the orders were cancelled.
No, I tried to pay 100% with credit card and still got the $100 GC orders canceled.
Has anyone called to see what the problem is ?
I did call in, but they were genuinely useless. I called twice in fact: first time after my 2 previous orders of just $100×1 online orders were canceled (tried Mon night, got cancellation email, so tried this morning, also got cancellation email), so i called in to find out what happened…as the lady was clueless, i just had her place another order over phone to see if that makes a difference, but 2 hours later it was again canceled. i called back in, this time it was an useless chap that just said i dunno why it got canceled but you can just try again–he was clearly not understanding that i’ve already tried thrice and unwilling to try again blindly without knowing the cause for the first 3 fails first.
I’ve given up and will just purchase $50×2 instead; hopefully that comes through as everyone is reporting.
I ordered 9 $100, 3 $50, 3 $25 ebay gift card. I got 3 $100, 3 $50 3$25 but the rest of 6 $100 were canceled.
The good thing is it is in time for the new “$100 Target GiftCard™ for $95 – US Mail Delivery” started last evening. I also got 3X ebay bucks for order > $50.
I did use $400 target gc with redbird and the order went through without any issue. Apparently Target detected that I ordered more than 3 $100 gc and decided to cancel rest 6 $100 ebay gc.
$100 Target GiftCard™ for $95 – US Mail Delivery is available on eBay. It ends in 58 minutes!
Do you have a link? I didn’t see this on the site. Also your comment was posted about 3 hours before I received the email so if it did exist it’s already over.
Trying again for the $25 and $50 cards. All of my $100 cards were canceled. I’m not holding my breath.
Whew. Well, the 3x$25 and 3x$50 gift cards just came through. I’m going to try to order those on my wife’s account as well. 10% off $450 would be a nice treat, but I wish the $100 cards were working!
8 hours and not a peep from target on 3x$50 and 3x$25. The order is created, but not sent and no communication at all.
