Seamless for buying books, dvds, November 5, 2007
I've received a few gift certificates over the last year, as well as e-cards, and I think they're great. Once they're claimed, they just show up in my account, and automatically apply when I purchase something. I can also look up the balance easily through my account, so I know what my limits are. I also like the fact that I can use them to buy used books sold by other merchants too, which helps me buy the hard-to-find books I like. So far, I've used gift certificates for books and DVDs and have had no problems.

Happy with gift certificates, October 28, 2007
I receive two Amazon gift certificates each year from my aunt in Germany and have always been happy with my purchases. It gives her the freedom to send me a gift without the hassle of mailing it and gives me the freedom of getting just what I want. I love it! There are lots of stores to buy from. I have bought, books, music, quesadilla maker, bassinet, the list goes on. No hassles, no lines in the stores, ships right to my door. Thanks Amazon for making shopping online enjoyable and easy.

Excellent - not sure what's so hard..., October 24, 2007
Not sure what the problem with Gift Certificates is. I thought I hadn't received it, but found out that somehow I accidentally deleted it without looking at it... Love that I can save my GC in my account and use it whenever without having to try to save the email with the info! Very useful!

WHY CAN'T YOU BUY MP3'S WITH GIFT CERTIFICATES?, October 21, 2007
I'll admit that I didn't read the fine print but, you should make it CLEAR that you can't buy MP3's with Amazon gift certificates or enable us to buy MP3's. I bought my daughter a gift certificate so she could buy the MP3's that she wants with out needing my credit card for EVERY SONG (which is another headache). So thanks Amazon for making it clear before I went and bought this c#$%^py gift certificate for my daughter I'm sure you just made a customer for life in her as well.

Will not be purchasing..., October 17, 2007
I am very thankful that I read the full terms and conditions on the Gift Certificates before I bought one because it saved me from wasting money. As other people have stated, Amazon Gift Certificates are not good for anything that is downloaded. This includes Amazon's MP3 and Unbox services.
I don't understand the motives for not allowing MP3 and Unbox downloads to be purchased with a Gift Certificate, but I do know that it will keep me from giving MP3 downloads as a gift this Christmas. It would be great if Amazon changed their policy, but until then do be aware of those restrictions.

Why can't I just print it out?, October 7, 2007
I'd like to be able to print out the gift certificate on my printer without amazon sending an email to spoil the surprise, but it looks like I can't do this. Why not?

Great Experience, October 7, 2007
I ordered the gift certificate for myself using a Visa gift card that I had. Why not just use the Visa gift card for a purchase, you ask...because if your total exceeds the amount of the gift card, you cannot use a credit card to fund the remainder of the balance. So how else are you suppose to pay without using a credit card? My way around this was to purchase the amazon g/c with the Visa g/c so I could still use my credit card.
I had the amazon gift certificate sent to my own email which I received the same day within hours of placing the order. I had no problems with the purchase or receipt of the amazon gift certificate from start to finish. Would not hesitate ordering again based on my experience.

I didn't know as consumers we need to be Force Feed Info, October 3, 2007

Payment Methods We Accept
The Amazon MP3 Music Downloads store uses the 1-Click ordering method, which requires a Debit Card or Credit Card as the payment method. Payment methods such as Pay Directly from Your Bank Account, checks, Gift Certificates, or promotional certificates are not accepted for Amazon MP3 Music orders.
Cant really blame anyone but yourself.
It took itunes something like a year and a half before Gift cards where accepted.
Just step up and read before you buy.

Wonderfull!!!, September 30, 2007
I have to admit I was some what afraid to purchase a gift certificate do to all the negative feedback. I decided to give it a chance since I already had a great customer service experience here at Amazon. I must say I was far from disappointed. I chose a gift certificate by e-mail and it arrived within one hour. I will defiantly use this service again!

Great, September 29, 2007
I've had gift certificates sent to me and they have arrived in as little as 10 minutes and as long as 6 hours. Still, they do say a few hours so it was expected.
