With all the changes being made to track sales and cash flow between buyers, sellers and these payment carriers now reporting the transferring of funds to our respective governments, I recently closed my PayPal account for good. I was then talking to a buddy of mine who sells a lot of parts and mails them off and he said the same thing...dropped eBay and PayPal completely but was scratching his head on how or where to proceed?

He said he'd likely go back to swap meets and cash sales dealing in person to move his parts. I know he buys a lot off Amazon and told him to consider taking payment via Amazon credit. I said you could always sell an item to someone and get them to transfer you a gift card or an emailed credit on Amazon etc. He's like hey wait a minute...that could work?

Anyone ever sent someone a gift card or emailed one through Amazon or something similar?
