Have you considered offering email-based amazon gift certificates for bitcoins? That way you wouldn't need to be a middle-man.

Can those gift cards be emailed and used digitally?

They need a name and email address.It doesnt specify it has to be your real name,initials or temporary email address. ;)


I need -

first name or initial
second name or initial
temporary or secondary email address to send the certificate to.

Is this ok?

NoAgenda, where do we find BTC prices on your site? Or do you negotiate after someone tells you they want an item each time?

That'd be cool. I'd like a widget that shows MtGox and BCM on my desktop. BCM is closed for me all day. I wonder if he'll eventually run it 'round the clock.

Its only a matter of time. :)

My site is on google blogger so it needs some kind of html widget or banner that i can add.I dont like using iframes but that might be a temporary solution.

*edit-I added a new page to the site with bitcoinmarket embedded into the page and an explanation of the conversion calculation I use to work out the price of products.Iframes are so 1990 lol.

Ok I had to update the Amazon link as the old one wasnt working. It will take you to the amazon kindle page now when you click it. Add it to your browser faves and get bitcoins back whenever you use it. Happy shopping everyone.

Just a question for people....would you be more likely to use this service if it was semi automated for you?

I am closing this service down and of course if you have any outstanding rebates owed contact me and I will honour them.

As the first service to offer a way to spend money at Amazon I feel it has served its purpose and better more advanced services can take over.
