Had the exact same experience as OP.
Be VERY careful. Force seller to use escrow or else don't trust.

yea be careful guys, he will scam u for any amount, even a $1.. this guy is desperate.
I just want to point out to everyone there is scammer on these forums that keeps changing his username and posting the same deal on gift cards. I started this topic because if I leave comment on his thread, he keeps deleting it. He uses the same format to advertise, see the posts below for examples. All links to buy gift cards goes to Hexpay and under same seller on there as sir.morninglight. He will not send you any gift cards after the money been cleared or he will send you bogus gift card number.
What happened: Saw his post regarding gift cards at 50-60% off and bought one ebay gift using the HexPay links provided in the post. Received bogus gift card number that did not work. Contacted the seller multiple times and he did not respond back
