    Sorry OP, can't help but there is an ebay board you could ask on. Hope you manage to get a great holiday out of it.
    Thank you all who post.

    Where's the gift card for, is it Mulberry or somewhere like Selfridges/John Lewis/Debenhams, etc. Check on completed auctions for similar voucher sales to see what they go for?

    Having a quick look at ebay, Debenhams vouchers seem to go for about 80-85% of their face value but a Mulberry voucher, if it is that, may have less appeal so perhaps a buy it now at 80% of face value with 'best offer' option? How's that sound? Way better than your £350 bag to start with as you may have only got about £200 for that. Hopefully, it'll pay a big chunk towards that lovely holiday.

    Should be okay with paypal I would have thought - as long as the auction winner name/address is the same as the paypal account they pay it from. If you follow the sale rules of paypal, it should be fine, although I don't know whether their protection is only up to a certain value. Make sure you send it through the post fully insured and trackable for the full value.

    Hope that's of help - what does everyone else think?

    Just a note Charlie, if you're going to sell them in £100 lots don't list them all at once i.e. all on Ebay at the same time. If you do you're spreading the buyers over a greater number of gift cards and they are likely to go for less than if you listed them one at time, if you see what I mean.
    2009 Wins = £833
    2010 Wins = £6,597
    2011 Wins = £7,083

    £2,012 in 2012 = £450/£2,012
    20 in 2012 = 4/20
