REVIEW – Plastic Jungle

We'd love it if you shared it!

How do you feel about gift cards? I have mixed feelings about them. I think they’re fine to give to acquaintances, or to use for things like grab bags. But I don’t think they’re a good gift for close family members. Why? Because they require no thought and they’re impersonal. One of the lamest presents I ever received from a close family member was a gift card to a store I have never shopped in. I literally gave the card away. Had I known about Plastic Jungle I might not have done that.

So what is Plastic Jungle? Here’s the answer, in their own words.

Plastic Jungle is the best way to sell, buy, exchange or donate gift cards on the Internet. We offer the most innovative, convenient and safest way to get the most out of gift cards. All transactions are guaranteed, and along with the best prices, Plastic Jungle offers industry-leading features such as helping you to replace your gift cards in case they are lost or damaged. We also provide free shipping for all gift card sellers and buyers.

Get Cash – Cash in cards with a minimum balance of $25 for up to 92% of the verified card balance. You can also exchange your unwanted or partially used gift cards for purchasing power at stores like Amazon.com, or donate them for the benefit of your favorite nonprofit organization.

Save Money – Gift cards on Plastic Jungle can be purchased at a discount, which means you can save up to 35% off your next shopping trip (that’s on top of any store sales, coupons, or specials they might be running). And we offer FREE SHIPPING!

So basically, if you have gift cards you don’t want or need you can sell them to Plastic Jungle for 92% of their balance or value. Rather than let them sit in a drawer or give them away there’s a way to sell gift cards that you don’t want or need for some extra cash so you can get that item that you really want. They’ll even buy them when the card doesn’t have the full face value left on it. That’s terrific for those times when you use a card and it doesn’t have enough left on it to buy anything you want and yet has too much left on it to just ignore. Nice! Not only do they buy gift cards, they sell them too. You can buy discounted gift cards for up to 35% off with free shipping. They currently sell more than 140 different brands in categories including accessories, crafts, auto, baby, beauty & maternity, books, cds, clothing, department stores, electronics, entertainment, flowers & gifts, grocery, health & spa, home improvement, jewelry, movies, office supplies, pet products, shoes, sporting goods, toys, and travel. They even sell eCODE gift cards, in case you’re in a real hurry and can’t wait for cards to arrive at your house.
