Gift Cards

Gift cards are an amazing source of revenue for retailers, especially as upto a third of them never get redeemed (a phenomenon called "breakage").

I wonder why eBay does not sell gift cards ? It should be a good source of revenue for them, and the good thing is that the recipient is not limited to one store.

How romantic would it be, to send a gift via paypal, thats like writing a check ! Fine line, between gift card and cash.
