If you put kindle books into your Wishlist, Amazon will also regularly email you with 40% discounts specifically for one book in your Wishlist. I get these kind of offers every month.
EDIT: Link worked for me but discount did not apply to a £9.99 kindle book I tried to buy just now... (edited)
The link said I got the discount, but when processing in checkout, no discount applied.
Although in a meta sense this was not intended to be used on any Kindle book in the store, although that is neither here nor there, in legal terms, I can confirm that they refunded the £5.20 credit on the £13 book I purchased. (edited)
Available to me - just clicked the link
Hmmm, banner was there when I clicked through, but was not applied to the book I purchased
mmm.. Congratulations, your 40% kindle book credit is ready to use So I bought a kindle book at £5.99 and was charged full price
Contact Amazon CS and they will refund you, but sometimes it's processed as a refund a couple of days later. Amazon CS will be able to let you know.
It's not clear, but I wonder if the discount will only apply to the books listed When you get the offer you see this: "1-12 of 893 results for Kindle books | Offer applied" So you may only get the option on one of the 893 books
It does say Any Kindle book in the banner though.
Thanks OP, heat added. I don't buy kindle books, but my wife does so I can buy one for her and gift it 😁
It didn't apply the discount, it seems that they intended to only apply to the listed books. However, tthe wording clearly states any Kindle books, so I am disputing with customer support.
I was kept waiting for 20 minutes in chat. They ended up refunding me the full incorrect charge.
Bought something on the list but still didnt' get a discount. Not too fussed though as I was after that book anyway and the price was decent.
Just be aware that you may not get the discount.
Hi thanks for the heads up. Same as others - no discount applied when ordering but customer services issued a 40% refund
