Will this work?

So awhile ago I traded some dude 30 pokemon for a 28$ gift card at GameStop
(I'm suprised myself, it still works too!)
Anyways if I were to use this at GameStop do I have to show them the gift card (the person only gave me pin + acc number, no card)
Or can I just type in the account number and pin?

Since it's the 21st century, i recommend that you save the code on a phone or something. Since there's a lot of iphone sheep out there, just put in on iphone notes app or something. It's make you seem professional or so, you can always memorize it, but pulling a notecard out is your last decision.

[quote=superswift12]You could manually input the code, but it would lead to further suspicion, not that i think the gamestop guys would care about. Just use it as soon as possible, so that the other guy doesn't even get the slightest chance to lay his hands on those 28 bucks. [/quote]

sorry for the late reply, the person I traded was 2 months ago xD and I'm still surprised it still has 28$ as of November 16

Would they be suspicious if I pull out the notecard with everything on it and manually input the code or should I just memorize it ( not that hard for me)

You may have to use it for online only (Dont quote me on that).
