Buy GRAVITY RUSH 2, you peasants! >:-(

 

[Skii]

I can't think of anything I need. But the prospect of getting a £10 discount might make me buy something anyway... :/

 

[Tregard]

First rep I spoke to was exactly like that. Second dude was super helpful and offered to do this before I even directly asked.

Second person claimed they were also unable to apply the discount to existing orders :/ Don't know what I'm doing wrong here

 

[Portugeezer]

You're one penny short.

£50 minimum spend. See above.

I added an SD card and still won't work

 

[notaskwid]

I added an SD card and still won't work

I tried Resident Evil 7 and the final price with shipping was over 50 and I got the same error as you

 

[Disagree Guy]

On the whole, I found the free release day delivery they do (or did? I don't know if it's still running) for game pre-orders to be way more reliable than the Prime delivery service.

Neither is perfect though, as I've had items either failed to be delivered, or in one case someone in the depot had opened up the game box, stole the disc, hastily replaced the shrinkwrap and then packaged it up and sent it out. To be fair this is only a few bad cases out of over a decade worth of deliveries.

Yeah I had this happen to me on Xmas day.
My wife got me FFX remaster and some asshole had took a blade to the strip and took the disc out so it still appeared sealed.

 

[King_Moc]

I take it the code only works once?

 

[LAM09]

Decided to get Tekken 7 and some household stuff. I couldn't pass up the discount.

 

[Theonik]

Does this work on multiple orders?

 

[Garrett Hawke]

I take it the code only works once?

Probably, but you can just open a new amazon account and use that

 

[Mascot]

Is this just for games? Added a couple of cheap games and a sandwich press for £55 total, code wasn't accepted.

Ah, has to be sold and dispatched by Amazon, not third-party sellers.

All good now.

 

[CanUKlehead]

Does this work on multiple orders?

Yup, as long as it's from Amazon

 

[Septic360]

Damn I keep getting an error message saying:

The promotional code you entered cannot be applied to your purchase.

 

[Munter]

Oo this sounds tempting! 65 quid for a console and game like a good deal.

It's a trap!

 

[Garrett Hawke]

Damn I keep getting an error message saying:

Have you checked this?

 

[eoa-swam]

Does this work on multiple orders?

The code itself only works once.

 

[Nzyme32]

I completely forgot amazon have the bizarre need to lock some games behind an Amazon Prime PayWall. Not going to bother since what I want is unavailable

 

[Shadow Ranger]

Can't order Dragon Ball Fusions for 3Ds. It's like everyone I want is gone or I don't want to spend money on today.

Couldn't get it applied to a previous order by the way.

 

[boredandlazy]

Ended up ordering Kingdom Hearts 2.8, Yakuza 0 and Nier: Automata.

 

[Theonik]

Conflicting info!
e:

Y0 seems out of stock RATS.

 

[Ian]

thanks OP, cancelled a couple of preorders and reordered with the discount

 

[Blackthorn]

Thanks op, I bought a kettle, GOTY edition.

 

[Septic360]

->

Have you checked this?

Oooh you're right. Its a third party.

Currently on the phone with them to get the BIGTHANKS discount on my Switch

 

[giant_frying_pan]

Re-jigged my P5 preorder using this last night. Lovely!

 

[Portugeezer]

->

Have you checked this?

Yeah still have the problem

Edit, OK SD card was delivered but not sold by amazon, it works now.

 

[bryanee]

Did it for Breath of the Wild on Switch.

I'll be getting a 57p ruler in the post during the next week. Nice.

 

[Lucreto]

Is it a one code per account thing or can a make multiple orders?

 

[eoa-swam]

Conflicting info!
e:

Y0 seems out of stock RATS.

You can have multiple items in one order and use the code, but the code will only work once.

 

[eoa-swam]

Oooh you're right. Its a third party.

I'd say it will only work on a 'new' order. I had to cancel my BOTW pre-order and re-order to use the code.

 

[Spades]

Second person claimed they were also unable to apply the discount to existing orders :/ Don't know what I'm doing wrong here

Seems to totally depend on which agent you get. Which is really dumb.

 

[EmiPrime]

Buy GRAVITY RUSH 2, you peasants! >:-(

I would but £45? Not happening.

 

[Succinct Verbosity]

Can this be applied multiple times or just once?

 

[Spades]

I'd say it will only work on a 'new' order. I had to cancel my BOTW pre-order and re-order to use the code.

I managed to get an agent to retrospectively apply it to my Switch pre-order.

 

[arkon]

Can this be applied multiple times or just once?

Once.

 

[Orin GA]

what about america?

 

[Son Of D]

If I use the code for a pre-order and something to buy now does the code take £10 off the item I'm buying now, the item I'm pre-ordering or does it split the £10 between the two items?

 

[eoa-swam]

I managed to get an agent to retrospectively apply it to my Switch pre-order.

Good news.

 

[Garrett Hawke]

If I use the code for a pre-order and something to buy now does the code take £10 off the item I'm buying now, the item I'm pre-ordering or does it split the £10 between the two items?

I believe it splits the £10 between the two items, but proportionally.

For example, I bought Zelda and Mario Kart 8 - £49.99 and £44.99 respectively.

I got £2 off each because of Prime (so £47.99 and £42.99).

After the £10 off, my total for Zelda is £42.63 and my total for Mario Kart 8 is £38.35.

So £5.36 off Zelda and £4.64 off Mario Kart 8.

 

[Fordy]

what about america?

Hey our pound is taking, at least let us have this! :-(

 

[CanUKlehead]

Conflicting info!

Not really. It's a one-time use code for products sold by Amazon that total £50 or more.

 

[sora87]

Nice, got £10 off Nier Automata and the new Zelda artbook

Had a feeling it'll be split. Thanks.

 

[mocoworm]

Thanks OP.

I just re-ordered Zelda and also pre-ordered Mario Kart and got the £10 discount.

 

[King_Moc]

Yup, code works once. Got Mario Kart and and album. Cheers OP.

 

[Septic360]

Yeah so long story short; the guy couldn't retrospectively add the discount to my Switch.

Instead he gave me a month's free Prime which is cool I guess. Although mine's a rolling subscription but yeah, better than nothing.

I'll get Zelda though

 

[notaskwid]

Apparently the shipping cost is not included on the discount calculation.
Applied to a prime trial and got Resident Evil and Digimon, not a bad deal.

 

[Ninja Dom]

Apparently the code can't be applied to my purchase? Zelda.

Zelda is £49.99. Needs to be £50 or more.

Add on the Sellotape for £1.49 & free delivery.

 

[nelsonroyale]

Okay Gravity Rush 2...

 

[Tregard]

Seems to totally depend on which agent you get. Which is really dumb.

Gave up and ordered Horizon instead, went through three people and got the same response from everyone :/
