I previously used multiple discount codes in an order, but only one of the codes was a KSO coupon, the rest were on the product pages. I wasn't sure if it would be different if both codes were KSO.

I tried to use the $5 off on a new Subscribe & Save but it didn't work.

Definitely worth it.

The last few $5 (and similar) KSO offers have been non-stackable, which means you can't use with any other promo code. generally, you get whichever code you entered that gives you the best $$ off on that particular order and the others wait on your account until you place another order.

I tried to use the $5 off for $10 purchase with the 1/2 off cover deal and only the 1/2 off worked. The $5 was entered but wasn't applied and it shows as used, so I can't use it for anything else.

Oh no, I wonder if mine will show as used because I tried to use it on a subscription order? How do I find out if will no longer available (short of entering it again before I'm actually ready to order.)

After looking at the Kindle covers more I realized they are not a good option for me because of the way I read. I was thinking of buying one of the Tuff-Luv Multi-View covers instead. If the coupon no longer works, I won't bother.

It will automatically come off your next order (I've done this, trying to get both at once).

Weirdly, over the last few days, the listing for the Kindle version of it (which listed for about $15) has vanished off the site, although I still show an order for it with an unknown release date.

Ok, hope you get it. New release date: 2036 (does the month and day even matter?)

Yeah, I saw that. The page has changed a few times over the last couple of days.

Something's up, since you can no longer get the Kindle version at any price. I'll let it play out for a week or so, before possibly contacting Customer Service.

Please note that the window for claiming and redeeming "Water for Elephants" is very short.

You only have two days to claim it (normally four days) and one week to redeem it (normally one month).

Thanks for the warning I just got the deal.

moolyn · 11-01-2011, 12:52 PM

I asked this on another thread and haven't received a response. What will happen if I buy a Kindle WSO in the US and bring it back to Canada? Will I receive the special offers or will they just disappear into cyber space?

koland · 11-01-2011, 01:33 PM

You'll still get them. You may not be able to take advantage of them (and that may vary by offer or over time).

lucifix · 11-01-2011, 04:01 PM

This is really disappointing. My kindle keyboard only displayed offers for the K4 and amazon couldn't help me when I called them.

Does anyone have a spare promo code for 50% off the K3 covers? I will really appreciate it

Call again or try Chat. I got them to exchange my Kindle Keyboard offer for a K4 cover. The first person I talk to was no help. I email them and never got a response so I tried chat at 3AM on a weekend and that person was great and fixed it for me.

When you get the Inquiry email from your support call. Click no this did not help me and fill out the form it will them ask you to try support again. I gave the first person negative feedback because they lied to me.

Who did you call? Amazon CS or Kindle CS? It does make a difference. Kindle CS is 1-866-321-8851

Anyway, do as Blossom suggested and call again. Be polite, but persistent. Ask them why they sent you the wrong offer? Let us know what happens.

BTW, welcome to the board

lucifix · 11-01-2011, 04:23 PM

Hello guys!

I just got off the chat with amazon and they said that all they could do was to apply a $10 promotional discount to account because the 50% offer has already expired on 31 October.

Should I contact them again?
