    didnt click on his link, but there is a site for trading/selling gift cards and there is no scam. the if you get a gift card for $100 to a place you will never go why not sell it for $80 or trade it for a $100 gift card to someplace you frequent?

    EDIT: just checked out his link. it seems like a complicated e-bay with less slelection

    Here's the scam of the website:

    Basically you buy a # of bids (10, 50, 100) then you use those bids to bid for items. Each bid raises the price. If you win, you buy it for that price. The thing is that the website LOVES to refunding and canceling the bids. So they keep all the bid money from the losers and just refund your bids.
