Got all three now. My friend also tried to get them. He forgot to put the code in the first book and was charged $10.09, not the $5.79 it was advertised for. I noticed that the regular price and a higer "our price" is on the search list for the books. When you click on the buy button and get the checkout page the book now has a lower "our price" (which was $5.79 for the first book) He than got the second book with the code at $1.67. Which was still higher than what I got it for because it took the 85% off the main listing "our price" I told him it must be because he was going through his Ipad.
He called Kobo. The rep was very forgiving. He gave him a $5 credit for the first book and told him he wouldnt have been able to use the code for it anyways because you could only buy 1 hunger games book per account with the discount code which he used on catching fire.
My friend didnt even try to argue the point and just said thanks and hung up. I later told him the rep lied because I was able to get the discount within a half hour on the last two books with my one account.(after his experience) Plus the email never stated there was a limit of one book per account.
The situation put another nail in the coffin for him reading ebooks. I had convinced him to give his ereader another chance. Especially since he borrowed the first hunger games from a friend and I told him he could get all three as ebooks cheaply.(he had stopped using his ereader after just a couple days initially) After he was through with the Kobo rep he said this is why I hate ebooks.
