Yeah I didn't get one and I'm peeved.

(not enough to buy something anywhere else however)

Any idea why they gave the coupons such a short life? It would have made more sense to give the inactive accounts more than 30 days to redeem the coupon. I mean, its not like they need the revenue, they already gave guidance that they would meet revenue targets and sequential growth, so why is the stock so weak? (I would have expected $150 by now for sure)

William,

Don't you think Amazon should not count inactive accounts as part of their customer base? They are no longer customers apparently.

>>>The certificates went to inactive accounts.

I don't think so... I have two inactive accounts with AMZN and didn't get any certificates. Did anyone really receive it ?
