I bought this and got the $1 credit!

http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B008KLPLB4/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o05_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

It says Usually ships within 1 to 2 months. It ships faster!

For a 4 dollar movie is it using all credit or only giving $1 credit as I read above

I can confirm that it will apply as much credit as you have toward an amazon instant video purchase. I just tried and i didnt know that you get no confiormation page when buying a video. it was a $56 season of a show and 1 click and it used all of my promo credit and charged my cc!

Chat was willing to cancel the order, but i got a bit of push back about refunding the promo credit. Appaarently, they cannot issue credit that is only good for amazon video, it works for all digital media. So I got $28 didigtal media credit.

I just tried buying a regular item, and turns out I got $28 regular amazon credit. So YMMV on converting theis credit to amazon standard credit, but I just did it for $28.

Hello,

I've issued a $28 promotional certificate to your Amazon.com account, which will automatically apply the next time you order an eligible item sold and shipped by Amazon.com and does not require a claim code. The promotional certificate doesn't apply to items offered by other sellers on the Amazon.com website and won't cover the shipping costs or any applicable tax of an order.

When using a promotion to buy eligible Kindle books or other digital products sold by Amazon Digital Services, the promotional funds will apply to your order automatically before another payment method is charged.

Amazon CSR could not find the $1 video credit offer that the OP was referring to.  Is it still going on?

BTW, they told me that the max credit is $1 per video, not like reported on the post above.  I like @mbelsky's experience  better.

Turn on one click ordering--it really speeds up the process.

I tried this but never got the option to choose the slower shipping to get the credit. How would this work?

Ok, so I'm a little slow.  By ordering these doodads, you get $1 'video' credit and title says it comes with free prime (which I have).  Great.  You have to put two and two together to understand that you only get the video credit if you choose no-rush and ignore the free prime in the title.  Misleading even if I happened to have read DDMS.

Just the same, TY.  In for 2x30!

I have a script ordering the .02 ones for me using my $28 free amazon credit. I am up to 850 orders. Do I stop at 1000 or keep going?

$1000 video credit to buy up seasons of all of the shows I am interested, for $20 (assuming these ship in time). If they don't ship in time, I will need a new script to handle the cancellations.

You aren't concerned that they are going to shut you down? You are raising red flags, buddy, watch out! WHen you abuse a deal like this, you ended up messing it up for yourself, and others who used it modestly. Anyways, what do you plan on doing with all of the video credit?

I am slightly concerned they would shut me down, but not overly. I guess maybe I should stop at $1000. I plan to buy full seasons of lots of shows for me and my kids.

But if they don't kick me out for $1k, are they much more likely for $3K?

The script isn't really a script, just using MouseController: http://lifehacker.com/mousecontroller-records-and-automates-mouse-actions-658839566


Edit: I am a bit concerned what the warehouse will say when they see 1K orders.... Also, what will the post office do?

What are you buying for .02 ?
I only paid 15% by switching to dansdeals

Didn't think about ordering seasons of shows. All I could think of was how many movies can I possibly watch by October. But that's a pretty good idea. Problem is #1 getting shut down and #2 them shipping on time.

AP is much more important to me than video credits. I mean I am fine with 100. How many credits can I possibly if they expire in October?

Better off downloading/stealing the episodes than risking your Amazon account.
Save your time, I don't answer PM. Post it in the forum and a dedicated DDF'er will get back to you as soon as possible.

Didn't find this question anywhere, but can you close your amazon acct, then start new with a new free prime account? I actually did this once, I closed my acct before i went to israel for 2 years, then opened a new one after 2 years with the same email and cc. I'm wondering if that means amazon is keeping tabs on me>?

Would you cancel the orders at this point?
