Actually I was forced to buy once also similar priced Moneypak on eBay.

My reason was simple-I am in Europe, but I was needed to pay someone with Moneypak and for me not possibility to buy Moneypak in store.
I think these eBay sales are for people like me from outside of US.

Why? Because it is useful for many buyers to get that sort of item

Also if you have a prepaid card that accepts moneypaks it can be a nice little purchase thinking of buying a few myself.

Ok, I understand the situation with this thing, but what's going on with physical amazon gift cards? I always see that those auctions end 20-30% percent more than the real value of the card. Why are people paying more for these cards when the seller clearly states that it won't be emailed?

I was recently out of town and was forced to buy many of these since nobody could do them. I got them instantly. It's worth it if you need somebody asap or emergency.

If you have a nice feedback account and look trustful then the seller might negotiate with you for emailing.
