That's not true, it's cheaper for me to buy things on Amazon with Bitcoin via Gyft (3% cashback) than using my credit card (1% cashback) or debit card (nada).

- sanswork 12y agoYou're ignoring the cost of acquiring bitcoins in that 3%. Also cheaper still to buy gift cards via raise, cardpool, giftcardgranny, hundreds of other results for "discount gift cards" which are 3%-6% off AND get your 1% cash back.
- NSEDhom 12y agoYour own specious arguments also ignore the cost over exchange quoted prices in acquiring Bitcoin, and make a lot of incorrect assumptions to boot. You seem very vested in making this sound like bad news. I guess your job as a shill is in jeopardy? Better post more.
- aianus 12y agoPlease link me to a site that has Amazon gift cards at a greater than 3% discount. I tried searching last time someone gave me that reply and couldn't find one.

- mhluongo 12y agoBuying Amazon cards on the secondary market isn't a good idea, though, due to the fraud. Otherwise agreed.
- sanswork 12y agoWhich is helped by the ability to do chargebacks when you are defrauded.
- DickingAround 12y agoWho pays 3% markup to get their bitcoin? (coinbase is 1%)
- sanswork 12y agoI didn't say 3%. I said he didn't include it when saying he saved 3%.
