I've purchased probably 10 or more of these electronic gift cards
in the $25 & $50 denominations and multiples thereof, going
back at least a few years. I've not only never had a problem,
Chapters has never missed a delivery date. They're great as a
last-minute gift, or when mailing a package is too problematic.
Just this past Wednesday, I sent one to an out-of-town friend and
she emailed her thanks first thing in the morning, on her birthday,
the following day. I just purchased one for my nephew's birthday,
tomorrow. I have no doubt he'll receive it on time, as has every
other recipient to whom I've sent one.
