    I bought GC Thursday night at 11pm to buy something for a deal expiring midnight. Got the GCs 10 mins later and completed the deal. YMMV.

    • it's been half an hour and i haven't received anything

      • when did you receive the gift cards?

        • It still haven't arrived.

      • Check your spam folder maybe? I did say YMMV. I am pretty sure it didnt take 4 hours for me the last two times I bought from the listing.

        • nothing yet.

    • Took 8 hours for me. After waiting an hour I checked the comments of the seller and it seems that it's common in getting these delayed. Hope you get yours in time.

    If you read here you will see that 4 hours is not uncommon. It seemed to vary significantly though.

  • Could be that they have massive amounts of buyers to go and it just so happens you're the ten thousandth customer to receive the code so naturally you'll be at the end of the line(and waiting in line is such a drag…….I've been in a queue once for one of the grand openings for EB Games at Ocean Keys and holy crap that line………saw several people rage quite and left coz they could be arsed waiting! hahahahaha In the end I endured the line and finally got in….after what 3 - 4 hrs of waiting inline?) as I'm guessing the seller would have to manually open up and scratch the gift cards' for its code and type them in a message on ebay for ya'll….

  • It's been discussed million times.
    Ranged between 10 mins to 13 hours.

    Amazing. I got 2 in 10 mins.

    • when did you order it ?

      • 10 minutes before they received it.

  • Purchased 5 for myself with one eBay account and it arrived in minutes.
    Purchased another 5 as a 'gift' (to send to my primary email address) with my other eBay account and it took a few hours.

    • im mad, I sent to myself as a gift hahahah!!!!!!
      that's why i didnt receive it

  • Got 2 last night and took 5 hours to deliver.

    And because of that I missed a good 20% deal on eBay :(
