puchi6 is 40% in Japanese store, and it's multi use.
I get 40% off in Hong Kong store. Could it be the local taxes so some people get lower discount than others?

Well, according to apesmom, it probably has to do with the checkout. I buy in Malaysia, and it's old checkout, so it's 40% off for me. Is the HK store using old checkout as well?

I think it's tied to checkout, not store. Just tested in US, got 30% on new checkout and 40% on old checkout for the same book.

So, does anyone know why Kobo just sent me an email in Italian? I'm in the States, and have only ever bought from the US store. (And another friend here got the Italian email as well.)

Is that what that email was!!!

I saw it on my phone but couldn't see all of the header - just enough to know that it was in Italian So I thought it was spam and deleted it.

Hope it didn't mention a 90% off discount code.

Edit
Never any lack of surprises with a Kobo account.

Well I've never even looked at the Italian storefront .... Perhaps Kobo''s anticipating. A sudden interest in all things Italian.

It looks like they sent this email in Italian to everyone. I also never bought there, but I got email.

What is happening?
