Unlike traditional banking where clients have only a few account numbers, with Bitcoin people can create an unlimited number of accounts (addresses). This can be used to easily track payments, and it improves anonymity.

No, I currently don't own any Amazon certificates but was wondering if it might be an roundabout way to get bitcoins starting with buying Amazon certs with a credit card and then selling the Amazon certs for bitcoin.

There's a guy on the forum who makes his business doing just that: selling Amazon gift cards for Bitcoin, so there is a market for that sort of thing. I've bought a few of them myself. If you wanted to give it a shot, you'd probably be able to sell a few. Just make sure you're willing to use an escrow, since many people will not want to trade with a new member who refuses one. Wink

Thanks for responding.
I don't mind using escrow if it's a trusted member of this forum. 
The key thing for me is I want to get current spot bitcoin to USD price
for them (no spread).  I have an account with Amazon so could get hold
of some certs in short order I believe.

I knew it was an area where scams were possible but hadn't realized just how scam-prone it is.
I can see why people are offering to sell their certificates at less than face-value in many cases.
I was earlier led to believe the certs were bearer documents but now I'm not so sure.
Anyone with further clarification please fell free to comment.
