is this legal? per the department of consumer affairs, "Any gift certificate sold after January 1, 1997, is redeemable in cash for its cash value, or subject to replacement with a new gift certificate at no cost to the purchaser or holder.3 Effective January 1, 2008, any gift certificate with a cash value of less than $10 is redeemable in cash, which includes currency or check, for its cash value."

- sounddust 16y agoIt's explained by Steve's response in the article.

The gift card was purchased in good faith that it could be used to purchase whatever products Apple sells, on demand. I have some gift cards that I'd like to sell you, but you can only use them when I say so.
