Perhaps there's someone on lobalbitcoins who'll take it? Even Circle usually won't take prepaid cards, you might be out of luck.

You can try bidding on bitcoins on ebay with it

It's already activated, no it wasn't a Christmas gift. There's $190 on there.

Localbitcoins or buy something online with it and sell either the entire card/code here or the thing you bought digitally here: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?board=93.0

Add them to your paypal account and sell on lbc.
or
Buy amazon gift cards/codes and trade them for btc on brawker or gyft.

that vanilla is shit.
Just using my porn throwaway for this, whatever.
This is the short story about how I lost $1700 worth of these bullshit cards.
So I'm about to order a pound of weed, and I've done large orders like this before. This time, its not for me. It's for this dude named Nick, and he has a lot of money.
He's (I thought he was..) experienced in this shit, biggest dealer in town and I just know him through my cousin. So he's like "ayy so how're you even getting my LB? DNM or in person hookup?" and I'm like "DNM, you know about this shit?"
Anyways, the fucking retard goes and buys $1700 worth of $25, $50, $75 and $250 prepaid vanilla Visa and MasterCards. I activate them all and sleep because its late and that took five hours.
I'm in Canada, to activate these you have to go to prepaidvisacanada or something and make an account. 1 card per account. That's how you do it. Unfortunately.
I wake up the next day ready to convert all my newly activated cards into BTC and boom, Visa and MasterCard have banned all of my accounts because they originated from the same IP and there were so many of them. I call them, they say they don't know what's up and transfer me to their tech dept., where they say that I'm fucked and it was automated.
No reimbursement or anything..I had to sell my fucking PS4 and my PC and a whole pay Nick back, because he understandably got mad and started waving guns around and shit.
It was fucked up.
On a side note, go on LBC and find people willing to trade those straight up.
Edit - the cards were deactivated too, as in they couldn't be used in-store. I checked. This shit was fucked.
