I'm considering using purse to purchase components for a new PC i'm going to buy. A question I have is that if I use purse name your discount to buy the parts will their warranties still work?

Great question, I'm thinking the same. I think since it's a gift you will by entitled to the discount as you were the recipient.

Hope the rep pops back into the thread, I actually had to Google the thread to find it on here.

The items are purchased for full price by someone so that doesn't affect anything as long as you have a receipt (which should come with each package). It shouldn't be a problem (but don't take that as a verified statement).

I've been waiting for a deposit I made to PurseIO to show up for more than 24 hours now. Sent support an email yesterday and got a reply saying  "Our wallet service is having some problems right now, and we're looking into the matter"...24 hours since they said that and still no deposit showing up and no reply from support today to my follow up email asking for an update. Am I the only one having problems as I haven't seen anyone else complaining about it? 

Either way, what gives PurseIO? How can your wallet be non-functional for over 24 hours!?

Can you reply to the support thread or PM me your username? I misplaced the ticket and wasn't able to look up the account/tx info.

Resolved, thank you.

Yeah but the thing is a lot of warranties only cover the "original purchaser" and i'm wondering if that effects anything. Really hoping that rep hops back in soon!

It seems amazon has changed the shipping address portion of wish lists?  I have suddenly received endless cancelled orders related to my shipping address.

Anyone else have this happen recently?

Did you maybe forget to add the shipping costs? Sometimes buyers add items to the basket and realize that the real discount they would give you is much higher because of taxes and shipping costs. If you fix that maybe this will stop.

The issue was the item couldn't be sent as a gift.  I missed that in the item description when added to wish list...

A little lost by this. Are you saying someone gives $427.98 in BTC for $321, or $321 in BTC for $427.98?

The latter.

Someone is buying your BTC for less than market value in order to leverage a profit at later date.

Purse.io buyers who bought Amazon gifts for users through July to October have seen a nice profit with the rise of BTC.

Currently, I still can see Amazon Gift Card orders listed at Purse market, available to be purchased. Wasn't been this possibility disabled?

This is actually the opposite of how I thought it worked. Wouldn't that mean that you could profit simply by buying Amazon items for people -> selling the BTC on Coinbase as soon as you get it -> recycle?

Only when you have a gift code source where you can get the codes cheaper than the discount you accept on purse. If you want to bet on a rising price then you could buy bitcoins directly to do that.

The one wanting to buy at amazon, the spenders, are saving because they can get their items cheaper. It seems to me that a lot of people use that to buy items cheaper and sell them on ebay or other markets for a higher price.

And the buyers, who pay with their gift code, have a way to exchange their codes into money. They might get a better rate than buying something with the code and selling it then. But i don't see how they can earn from that except they get their gift codes even cheaper.

i need to ask one thing, from where they ship the item? they use the amazon the buyers usually use in their language or from the abroad amazon? because in the last case there is the customs to pay....

[Mickeyb]

So can I use purse.io to order stuff to France? I have tried it once 6 months ago but it hasn't worked and I had many problems with it.

I don't want to try it again if it doesn't work 100%.

It is the same like you order the items. If you order on amazon.com then it will be sent from america for example. It depends from which amazon country you made a wishlist.

And yes, customs have to be kept in mind.

If your country has an amazon version and purse is supporting it, then you can make your wishlist there.

What where the problems? Some articles can't be shipped to some countries. You need to login into amazon and then you can read at the product page if it ships to your country. At amazon.com you can even filter for that.

it seems that they are supporting italy, i just want to be sure that i don't need to pay the customs, because it's very expensive, and would kill the point to use it
