Then possibly its a regional thing because I had a similar experience to yours with opposite results with Barnes and Noble. After one year it had lost about half it's value.

That's because all year, junior was sneaking it out without telling you and using it to run out to buy the latest issue of Spiderman Comics...

No junior around. Barnes & Noble told me that it was on a sliding scale it loses so much value each month after a certain time.

In my case I had the card for about two years not one as I originally stated, because I forgot that I had it. It started out being worth $25 and by the time I found it, it was worth about $2.00.

They may have changed their policy by now. This happened to me a couple of years ago.

Now if Wal-Mart doesn't have the book I want I deal with Amazon. Don't laugh at Wal-Mart books. I bought "Treason" there for $6 less than Amazon had it.
