Thanks. I posted late in the morning PT and they still hadn't posted the correct deal. From now on, I'll post TBA instead if the correct deal isn't showing.

I'll update the post.

FWIW, I had no problem logging in to my account on the first try.

This audiobook looks familiar. If you're like me, you've bought so many audiobooks that you don't remember for sure what you have, so I suggest that you check your libraries, if you do have a memory like mine. I don't remember Audible ever repeating a markdown, but they may have done it; so, I suggest that your Audible library be one of those that you check.

It looks like Downpour has carried over, to today, yesterday's "Daily Steal" audiobook, The Big Get-Even. If you think that you might be interested in it, scroll down the first screen about halfway in order to see the banner(?) ad.

They did for awhile, but then changed it back to this morning's entry of Riders of the Dawn (with a corrected price).

Looks like the Daily Steal is rocket science for the good folks at Downpour

Yeah, the problem is that Downpour's home office is in (the extreme southern part of) Oregon and not in Washington state. If it was in Washington state, especially in Seattle (Redmond, Bellingham, anywhere close to Seattle), the good folks at Downpour would have their act together.

Random question that someone's Surely done by now. You know the amazon prime free digital rewrads for "No Rush Shipping" - has anyone tried to use those to pay for a whispersync deal? Just wondering before I use mine. I just don't want to pay real $$ without knowing that's what'll happen. But I'd rather use the digital ones now before I forget.

Isn't that co-written by Arthur Conan Hardy?

You can use no-rush dollars to buy the Kindle half of a W4V deal (assuming the book is not "price set by the publisher"). You cannot use them for the Audible half of the deal, unfortunately.
