You may be better off trying a close friend or relative first. I should think that selling it online would leave you open to all sorts of scams.0

Having been scammed myself several times on ebay, I would never sell anything over £100.
Expensive items are a magnet for conmen, Ebay just make it too easy for them.0 -
Ok thank you0

Ask family and friends or at work. I sold a Virgin Experience gift card to someone at work.0

If you're not into that stuff, how did you come to receive the voucher?
Dodgy wedding gift, competition win?
It's a huge amount to have on a voucher..so I think you'll struggle to find anyone to pay full value for it.
To get rid, I think you'll need to offer it cheap...say £500. Even then you'll probably struggle, unless you know someone who's intending to make a large purchase of that nature.
Alternatively, spend it, on a classic piece, a watch etc. keep it boxed and mint condition...to bequeath or sell later.How's it going, AKA, Nutwatch? - 12 month spends to date = 2.60% of current retirement "pot" (as at end May 2025)0 -
The only safe way to sell it is to either offer it to friends or family for a good price, or advertise it on Facebook, but make it clear it is cash on collection only. No PayPal, no postage.Should've = Should HAVE (not 'of')
Would've = Would HAVE (not 'of')
No, I am not perfect, but yes I do judge people on their use of basic English language. If you didn't know the above, then learn it! (If English is your second language, then you are forgiven!)0 -
You could use it to buy stuff for presents or stuff you could sell ?0
