Well, my tuppence worth is that this next Contest will again have Codes that can only be used within the competing countries. And in fact that that's how it will be from now on. That is: UK CA & US

That's what's happened in Japan (as we have been told).

This is dreadful news. My buying will definitely drop off significantly - I never buy a book unless I have a coupon.

You will have a coupon. The point of Lynx's post is that you won't be able to use it wherever but only in USA/CA/UK kobo stores.

Yes, I understand. But I was under the impression that I couldn't do that unless I was in those countries - is this incorrect? Sorry, still new to Kobo

Nope.
You can shop in whichever store you want. I'm not in India and I shop in Kobo India store. Kobo doesn't care which country you choose in you Account Payment Information Settings.

Ah, I see. Thanks. I also wonder if there are English language books in the US, UK or Canada online stories that I have not been able to find in Dutch kobo site. I'll check it out.

Yes, it's possible that they are. I bought few books that were only available in UK store. Otherwise my fav shop is India. Much cheaper most of time then other stores.

No worries. Just make sure you buy yourself a gift card and buy books wherever using it. That helps avoid any bank issue that would normally happen using credit card.

The problem of course is that contest codes do not work on agency books in the US, UK or Canada and more than likely are no longer valid in countries which do allow agency discounting.

Keep those fingers crossed that loopholes will continue to be found

I have another noob question: I'm trying to buy a book and no coupon code can be applied to it. I had the impression that when this was the case, Kobo didn't even allow you to enter a coupon code. However, here I can enter codes during the checkout, but they're all recognized as invalid ("We could not apply this promo code").

Is this normal now? If so, how can you tell if a book is eligible to be discounted or not?

When you do a search, on the left below the list of search categories you will find a button that says "show only discount-eligible books" or something to that effect.

You can have it any time you want. Here's the link to the firmware you won.

Check out the first three posts of the Direct Links to Kobo Firmware thread.

When you get the H20, it should perform an update automatically when you connect it to WiFi or the Kobo desktop.

I know it's not that simple. Jon told me I won a Kobo H2O, but I don't know how to get it.

No, he said you get a free firmware download for the device of your choice. Device not included, your mileage may vary, void where prohibited, offer not valid on Io or Europa, wash hands thoroughly before and after use.
