How can folks send me kobo books? I found a YouTube video showing the 'Gift' option, but I don't see that button, so neither will they.

Is there something you have to do to get the button to appear? Is it because I'm in the UK and british people don't get to gift books?

Gift cards are a rubbish idea.

Can do book gifting with Smash Words so I might ferret out a wish list on that if I can't get Kobo Books.

Ta!
Just checked the Kobo site (Canadian) and the eGift option is there on the home page but there is no option to gift a book, just a gift card. Though I've personally prefer the gift cards ever since the year I got the same book from 3 people and had the fun of trying to get the Coles to give a store credit for two of them.
