I was thinking about buying Amazon gift cards and selling them on eBay, definitely a hassle though.

Money order?

I know this wasn't your question but best $/point ratio is usually airline miles. http://thepointsguy.com/2015/03/redeeming-amex-membership-rewards-for-maximum-value/

Just venmo'd the balance and had the receiver send it back with no issues. Thanks all!

Venmo fees worth it in my opinion

Why not just use the card? I'm confused.

K1 Yes if you have them already and are trying to liquidate. No if you are looking for a sustainable method of MS.

There is no fees for venmo (it's considered a debit card). Just trying to get the cash instead of it being locked up.

Couldn't you just spend it at the grocery store/a restaurant/on amazon? If there were no fees then whatever, but still sounds like an unnecessary hassle.

Thanks OP
