Ask Amazon if they take BTC

[ralree]

I sent Amazon a message today asking if/when they'd start taking bitcoin as payment, and mentioned bitpay as an option that's even cheaper than credit card merchant fees.  Here's what they sent me:



If you can take the time, please go to your amazon account some time this week and send a question in about bitcoin.  Obviously they are reading their mail.  The best way to get them to take it seriously is to have the customer base asking about it.  Cheers.

perfect!  yes, the more we inundate amazon, ebay, etc. with bitcoin queries they'll obviously take notice and the word will spread, and the community will grow!

Bitpay is too expensive for Amazon unless the reduce their rate to 0.005 per transaction as they are being charged next to nothing by CC processors. Somebody legit here needs to sell Amazon credits on a regular basis I'd buy them for coins. Any popular site not taking bitcoin = opportunity for everybody here
