I believe that store credits/gift cards are generally non-refundable. As I said, the credit was purchased to pay for a pre-order of a new, under development product that never happened (at least until now). Anyone familiar with Av123 product line-up probably knows what I am talking about.
I don’t know where you picked the 5% number. If you read through the thread (which I expect one to), the discount to face value is 10%. Now that may be nothing to some, peanuts to others and even a HUGE discount to yet some others. And yes, someone may even show up with a 25% discount to face value too some day and one can easily chose to wait until then. For others, I have some up for 10% discount.
Exactly the reason why I registered here. I thought could do with some of that and registering here appeared to be an extremely simple process. I felt like a whole new intellectual immediately after the registration.
Not everyone has the “same” nose (thankfully!) Imagine every human looking like a wood pecker
Humor aside, one ought to give ANY credit/gift card purchase some serious but balanced thought before taking the plunge.
