Probably thousands if not millions of dollars a year are put straight into Disneys pockets because of this. How many people lose or forget they even have an entire gift card and they aren't used at all. Disney should work with anyone who is willing to buy their cards, just for pure economics for them. Liability, oh please. They have Mission Space that kills people, I don't think selling cards in bulk to a loyalty site constitutes any type of liability hazard.

On top of that, they are getting how much all at once, a big lump sum, and then not having to give anything out in return for how long? For the few who time cashouts so close they leave just after getting the mail, there's not long, but how many cash out a month, 2 months, 6 months ahead of time? So they get that money and it can just sit there, earning interest, before having to give anything for it.


On the other hand, the one thing that flitted across my brain was wondering if there was fraud with some other site. So everyone is getting punished b/c of some dingleberry out there doing bad things.

And the other wonder was if they just don't understand what the sites are all about.



Ultimately it's not that big a deal to me as an individual, but it sure feels rude of them!
