Signed up to Amazon and added my actual Canadian address and tied my CC to it and added a 2nd address that is US based. Went ahead and purchased a $55 GC and sent it via email and then just went ahead and redeemed it on my account. Set my 1 click account to the US address so I should be good to go.
1-click is a bad deal, imo.
What if you click on it by accident (or somebody sits on your computer and do it) and you don't notice and it gets sent to the US address?
Or if you actually want to buy something from amazon.com but your 1click address is the US one and you forget?
I really wonder if that can create an issue, but I really don't want to ask Tony about it, because I don't want "them" to find out/look into it..
Considering it was easier to do it on Kindle (you only had to change the country you were from in the Kindle Management Area), but then they changed and you need an actual address in the country you want to "Fake" yourself into, I guess they don't really like it when people do it...
I'm guessing if it gets widespread and publishers find out, they might make amazon change it.
I have no intention of buying anything from Amazon.com besides downloadable games. Also I'm the only person that uses this computer. It's just what I have it set at atm. I'll probably change it to default before i purchase anything.
Woo, sales are up but the bundles dont work yet right? If I click the bundles in the OP (for example: http://www.amazon.com/dp/B008G0ZVLE/)I still get charged to complete amount.
I don't think they let you turn it off and I know they don't make sure you clicked it by accident. Further if you haven't refreshed a product page and click 1 click and the price changed you get charged the price that you don't see.
If you 1-click there's pretty much always a grace period where you can go and cancel the order.
Now, if you don't notice that you ordered (I don't see how this is possible as it loads a new page), you're screwed.
edit: Of course this doesn't apply to these digital downloads, but it's silly to be worried about it.

you can turn it off. There is an option in account management.

Damn, it'd be nice if you specified in thread title that this was for PC games only. I got all excited for nothing. =(
July 1st and it's been stated that the usually sales go live around midnight 12:30-1 PST time.
Ah thanks.

I haven't seen this mentioned in the OP, but how much are Modern Warfare 2 and Black Ops going to be? I'm guessing $20 each, but maybe we'll get lucky.

Any sales for non-digital games, for PS3/360/Wii?
Yea I did that and the digital downloads still show 1 click.
...and like I said before if the price on the page is different than what you get charged for they don't tell you before you get charged.

mw2? that was $5 last time and it was a steam key, not sure if it will happen again though
Yeah, One Click is quite annoying. BUT, when I bought some mp3s earlier, there was a confirmation page for those so I'd expect there to be an optional confirmation page for all One Click purchases now.

One click does not function with digital downloads by the way. You will always see a confirmation page.
Cheers,

That's pretty good. I'd be on board with that, hopefully it's that price again.

I posted this over at CAG, but I figured it would be worth mentioning here too.
I am glad Amazon is hosting this sale. I am looking forward to picking up Crusader Kings II. Unfortunately, the pack that has the Crusader Kings DLC is missing the latest and (arguably) only useful DLC (Sword of Islam). It would be nice to see a Crusader Kings II Complete pack for about $15 with all of the current DLC in it. Either way, cannot wait until this sale goes live. Will probably end up buying the pack separately for $5 anyways. Just curious, it says that Crusader Kings II is steamable, but the Amazon website doesn't suggest it is (as it suggests many other games are). Can someone clarify (I've never bought DD from Amazon.com, before).
Nelo Ice, great job on making such an organized list.
Thanks

From the product page: Requires Steam account for installation and activation
Well Drizzle made it look all nice so he should get some credit. Thanks though I'll try keeping it all nice and tidy once more deals roll in.
Thanks, I didn't see that but I do now. I was looking for a STEAM box like some downloads have.

So is Bioshock finicky on Windows 7? I remember someone posting that.
Also, I wish the Rockstar pack wasn't so damn random in the games it chose. Max Payne 2 but no Max Payne? Got Midnight Club for free... I would have preferred a Max Payne pack and a GTA pack.
