Re-titling of KoboBooks.com Discount Codes thread
Re-titling of KoboBooks.com Discount Codes thread
I'd like to propose a re-titling of the Kobobooks.com Discount Codes thread to instead be 'Kobobooks.com Discount Codes and pertinent discussion'.
My reasoning is that buying ebooks from the Kobo website can be a somewhat daunting and tricky business (or adventure!), and members not infrequently ask for help when using the codes.
Examples of said trickiness include:
two different websites/checkouts, old and new, depending on your country of origin
Cart appears on some countries sites and not others
PayPal is acceptable on some countries sites and not others
Gift Vouchers available for some countries and not others
entering discount codes differs according to your country and whether you are on the old or new website
format of the ebook is a bit of a mystery unless you take particular steps to clarify the format you're buying
kepub - a Kobo specific format that differs in treatment from the usual epub
the (usually) monthly Contest only applies to some countries, and now the codes only work in those same countries
the Japanese Rakutan site now differs in lots of ways from the rest of the Kobo sites
assistance with the ability to travel
assistance with searching and trying to find books (not as easy as it should be by far!)
Any more?
Anyway, I consider that these are sufficient reasons to justify 'pertinent discussion' be included as part of the thread title.
What do you reckon?
