    I'm guessing PayPal is not a valid option and Credit Card/Direct Deposit are?

    • spackbace on 07/10/2016 - 12:06

      Yep

      Read through the previous deals, people received their cards perfectly fine :)

    • kwijybo on 07/10/2016 - 12:07

      Correct, no Paypal. They were surprisingly quick in getting the money from a DD into my account though.

      • bwatt72 on 07/10/2016 - 14:01

        Yes very quick on dd and joined them last time when they was offering free. First time i used them other week and no complaints here.
        But there was a big ? In store when i tried to use print out of digital voucher.
        They went to manager etc to make sure all ok and was fine.

    • rysith on 07/10/2016 - 12:13

      I recently bought over $5k worth of JB vouchers using the Direct Deposit method and received my egift cards fine.

      Deposited the money on a Sat/Sun, codes received on Tues morning about 10/11am.

      Would definitely use again, just have to plan ahead to make sure you have a day or 2 for bank transfer to clear or if you are in a rush, use the credit card option and take the 2% (3.3$ amex) surcharge.

        I recently bought over $5k worth of JB vouchers

        Woah! At least $350 saved though, nice :)

          Yep and that was after negotiating a great price on a new TV, so 7% extra on top of whatever you can negotiate is great if you can wait for the gift cards.

        • nubzy on 07/10/2016 - 12:19

          @rysith: JB wouldn't go below ticket price on the TV for me as it was already on sale. It was $1 cheaper at GG/HN but couldn't be bothered to match for $1. Did get them to match GG who offer a $300 eftpos card though, so they gave me a $300 JB gift card.

          Would have liked to save extra 7% but ah well.

        • ruddiger7 on 07/10/2016 - 13:33

          @nubzy: Cant complain with that. What TV did you get if you dont mind me asking?

        • nubzy on 07/10/2016 - 15:08

          @ruddiger7: Samsung KS8000

          Despite it being cheaper in the GG/eBay deal I don't think we will be seeing that occur again. And with the $300 gift card and 36,000 Velocity points think we got a pretty good deal.

        • ruddiger7 on 07/10/2016 - 15:22

          @nubzy: Damn thats the one I am after in a 60 or 65"

        • skywalka on 10/10/2016 - 12:28

          @rysith: Were you able to negotiate the price and THEN transfer money and come back a few days later?

        • spackbace on 10/10/2016 - 12:34

          @skywalka:

          Generally speaking, if you're negotiating, be prepared to buy it there and then. You're negotiating with that salesperson because they want the deal there and then.

        • skywalka on 10/10/2016 - 12:37

          @Spackbace: That's what I would have thought. It would be hard to know how much to buy in gift cards before haggling.

        • rysith on 10/10/2016 - 13:31
          +2

          @skywalka: I was lucky I knew the salesperson so he held the negotiated price for me. Otherwise, best to have the gift cards in hand before negotiating or buying a product already advertised at a set price so you can plan in advance

        • skywalka on 10/10/2016 - 18:54

          @rysith: Thanks for clarifying.

      • chocfrogs456 on 11/10/2016 - 20:29

        so I've confirmed my order with direct deposit. now do I literally just go and make a deposit into the account they listed with my order no. as ref no? or do I wait for an email or something asking me to do so…?

        • rysith on 11/10/2016 - 21:18

          Make a direct deposit with the details they gave you and use your order no as your reference no/description.

  • railspider on 07/10/2016 - 12:11

    Have been after some Coles gift cards to save on grocery spending (RIP ING Cashback) and this site is one of the few I could find that does discounted Coles/Myer cards.

    Comments from the previous deal suggest the site is trustworthy. But my word, I hate the name!!!

  • nubzy on 07/10/2016 - 12:18

    damn would have come in handy for TV purchase a week ago. Good deal though, might as well sign up for $5.

  • Verse on 07/10/2016 - 12:19

    so how does this work? you get x% off the price of the gift card?
    ie: coles gift card worth $50, get discount of 5% = pay $47.50?

    • spackbace on 07/10/2016 - 12:21

      Yep, when paying with Direct Deposit there's no extra fees

    Somewhat unrelated, why do people buy giftcards on ebay for higher than their face value, for example: http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/Woolworths-Safeway-Wish-gift-card…

    Pure profit if you buy the giftcards from a site like this.

    • Smigit on 07/10/2016 - 12:51
      +2

      Not sure. I guess two cases I can think of is they have a coupon so they'll pay less than the asking price in the end, or if you are buying for an international store where getting credit is a bit more of a haste maybe you'll be happy to pay a small excess (particularly if it's for goods that are far cheaper overseas than locally, which offsets the cost).

      Might be other reasons too, don't know.

    Missed the freebie, but signed up at the same time. No issues so far. On a side note the Coles express gift cards were just coles myer gift cards so can be used anywhere within the coles group. The coles gift cards are egift cards and only valid at coles however. So if you buy enough to negate the $5 postage for the physical ones it's well worth it. If anyone else can confirm thats what they received as well.

  • run2dmax on 07/10/2016 - 16:35

    It says Coles/Kmart in the description. Can this be used in Target or their petrol stations or is it limited to those two divisions?

    • Soluble on 07/10/2016 - 16:59

      As per my post above but needing some confirmation. It definetly includes coles express, but I was sent colesmyer cards for the coles express cards ordered. Only placed one order of $2k so im still getting through them.

  • fruit on 07/10/2016 - 16:51

    Dupe, it's been $5/year ever since the first deal. Which was posted at $5 then someone found a free one.

      It takes more than 24 hours. It has never been instant from my experience.

          It has been instant both times in my experience when paying by CC. Used it for JB, got the 7% off (+2 in CC fees) and was able to use it for an instant purchase.

          Same for EB games, recieved and checked validation within 2 minutes of purchase.

      • Mad Max on 07/10/2016 - 19:09

    Hey,

    My first post, just wandering for the ones who have bought the ebgames giftcards;

    • Are they set denominations or can you scale to an exact amount like woolies ones?
    • Do you have to use the balance in one transaction?
    • And has anyone had dramas with using instore?
    • spackbace on 14/10/2016 - 12:19

      Haven't bought, but:

      • Set denominations (Available in $50, $100, $500)
      • Like any gift card, no, use it over as many purchases as you want

      Hi Spackbace, I actually wrote to them and threatened to take them to Consumer Affairs for changing the conditions without any notice. Got a call back the next day saying they "made an error" and would be fixed soon. Must have had a lot of complaints I reckon….a win for the OzBargain community!

      • spackbace on 09/11/2016 - 20:27

    I've bought eGift Cards for Coles, K-Mart & Target. At all 3 I've been told they don't accept these. I've had to wait for staff, argue with staff and come back later.

    Hardly worth the discount.
