About 3 years ago I bought 300 nickle books without any issues with it but I think something may have changed.

My Amex stopped after 6 Kobo purchases. They called me about "unusual activity" and wanted me to list recent transactions. I told them about the Kobo/Paypal purchases which were all under $1.00. She said that was how thieves work; start with very small amounts to test card then hit it big. She reactivated card with no concerns. She was very pleasant.
