I think it is more likely that Mr Jit there didn't know what you were talking about, and just gave you a standard "finish the discussion with client happy" answer.

+1 I would still be cautious shorting during business hours in case the make an announcement. Others should have this same conversation. If they get asked enough they will eventually be given an official position to read.

I'm very skeptical as well. Amazon accepting Bitcoin would be huge, so huge it would steamroll the whole Bitcoin economy. Amazon must know that, if they know about Bitcoin. It's too soon.

It would be great news! Until then, it seems you can already buy on amazon with this: http://spendbitcoins.com/Has anyone tried that?

Works perfectly, I got my code in 10 minutes (though dont count on that, Jeremy was posting here while I made the order). No markup for the bitcoins over mtgox prices, no fees, I was impressed. As for amazon accepting bitcoins; no offense, but I doubt that Indian support guy had a clue. Next time someone wants to try, ask if they plan to support solidcoin or something, and dont be surprised to get the same response .

Maybe somebody at Amazon is thinking this: 1. Buy bitcoins 2. Announce that Amazon will soon accept bitcoins 3. 4. Profit
|
Bitcoin Fact: the price of bitcoin will not be greater than $70k for more than 25 consecutive days at any point in the rest of recorded human history.

Coinabul, edit the first post with a challenge to people to "see for yourselves" and a link so people can chat it up too Mass inquiries is just as good as mass promotion I would think. Dear lord if there is any indication that Amazon would legitimately start accepting Bitcoins, it's time to sell the car! And wait three days for that cash to make it to an exchange

Me:I would like to ask about future payment options. Queen:Hi, my name is Queen, I'll be happy to assist you today. Me:Hi there Queen:I will be happy to answer your payment inquiries. Me:I was wondering whether amazon is considering new payment options in the future Queen:We accept credit cards, debit cards, payment from U.S. checking accounts, Amazon.com Gift Cards, and Amazon.com Store Card. More information is available in our Help pages here: http://www.amazon.com/help/paymentMe:Yeah, I already checked out that page and I'm aware of the current payment options, but for some nationalities it's still not very easy to order something on amazon unless you've got a creditcard, which I don't have so do you know about any new payment options coming up in the future? Queen:As of the moment, we don;t have any changes to any future changes with he payment methods that we are accepting in the future but I will take this as a feedback. Me:Okay, I would love to be able to pay with bitcoin in the future if this would be an option Queen:I will forward this feedback to the next department thank your and is there anything else that I can assist you with today? Me:nope not at the moment, thanks for your time! have a great day My conversation. I guess EhVedadoOAnonimato was right. Still if 100 people had the same conversation as I had, they will at least look into this I guess.
