great idea jeremy.west.
is this US only or will it work for non-US countries (i.e. if the normal amazon.com will ship to your country then this will also work).

This is indeed an intelligent way of buying BTC. But, what if you receive more orders than you can afford? I mean, this can't be a long-term service...

You should include Newegg also. I'm sure that would be a quite popular option.

Well hell, I will make use of this service when I need something. I hope it doesn't fold before then! Sounds like a good deal to me!

If you're searching these lines for a point, you've probably missed it. There was never anything there in the first place.

I suspect they'll wait a week or so until they get their goods but if anyone wants to report that I've ordered their goods and forwarded the receipt to them I'd appreciate it.

can't he just convert some of the bitcoins back into $ to pay amazon Yeah, but then, he would have to pay fees to sell them. Wouldn't that represent losses? (well, it's true that if BTC value keeps raising like it does then he won't be losing anything )

(well, it's true that if BTC value keeps raising like it does then he won't be losing anything ) Mt Gox doesn't charge anything to direct deposit to your bank account as long as it's $800 or more. That's my secret. I let everyone else do small transactions and then I convert when I need to in larger chunks. Also, I do get commissions from Amazon so that keeps me in profit. It's good to know what a free service provider gets out of offering the service, isn't it?

(well, it's true that if BTC value keeps raising like it does then he won't be losing anything ) There are commission programs and he probably has it set up to capture those. That alone can be a few percent. Then if he pays Amazon on a credit card he could get a rebate/reward there as well. This is a win-win for everyone so long as it is honest. I am looking forward to hearing more and will spend some myself this way if it works out.
