Strange prices shopping on Kindle Touch 3G

LovesMacs · 06-27-2013, 08:17 AM

I occasionally buy books directly from my Kindle Touch 3G. I've noticed that at times, the Kindle storefront screen will offer a list of deals priced $3.99 or less. When I follow the link, the books aren't always the monthly deals I expect but rather new or popular books priced much higher.

Today I checked the Kindle Daily Deals from my Kindle and I am still being offered yesterday's titles but at the regular non-discounted prices. This is with an active internet connection and several hours past the change of date at Amazon's Seattle headquarters.

Has anyone else experienced this, and do you have any helpful ideas? Thank you.

I'd recommend asking Kindle CS about it.

After going through e-mail support, followed by online chat and successive layers of phone support, Amazon customer service discovered that the problem was on their end and not on mine. For some unknown reason 3G Kindle Keyboards were receiving the updated titles but 3G Kindle Touches were not.

The problem has been fixed during the past several hours.
