Title: 1BTC = 11700 Amazon coins Post by: myself on May 13, 2013, 03:28:13 PM http://www.amazon.com/gp/feature.html/ref=zeroes_surl_c_landing?docId=1001166401
awesome news :) Title: Re: 1BTC = 11700 Amazon coins Post by: Coinseeker on May 13, 2013, 03:50:06 PM I guess that's one way to spin the outright rejection of Bitcoin for payments at Amazon. And yet another would be...umm...well...outright rejection of Bitcoin for payments at Amazon.

Title: Re: 1BTC = 11700 Amazon coins Post by: Ekaros on May 13, 2013, 09:05:42 PM So this is the standard micro-payment scam, you hide the real cost behind some alternate currency. Though conversion rate is rather simple...
Title: Re: 1BTC = 11700 Amazon coins Post by: Mike Christ on May 13, 2013, 09:16:37 PM Reminds me of Microsoft points; there's literally no reason to use them in lieu of USD, where you can, y'know, figure the real cost of the product you're buying, but the geniuses behind charging to use Netflix after already paying for Netflix thought it was a good idea.
'Cos y'know, fuck you, we're Microsoft. Considering the fact that Amazon is pushing for the Internet sales tax to drive out competitors, I'm never buying from them again. Title: Re: 1BTC = 11700 Amazon coins Post by: mgio on May 13, 2013, 10:25:05 PM Nope, you can not transfer them to another account or person.
And you can not redeem them back for US dollars. And you can only use them to buy apps for your kindle. You can't even use them to buy books for your kindle! And forget about anything on amazon.com. |
