Kindle = Scrooge
After much frustration, my mom finally found out from an Amazon customer support rep that it is not possible to buy a book for someone else’s Kindle. That is just crazy to me. Basically the only way to buy a gift ebook for the Kindle is to buy a gift card and have the recipient buy the book themselves. Lame, isn’t that?
One note worth posting on her adventure, she tracked down the Amazon support number:
Amazon US Customer Service
1.800.201.7575 (Toll free, US and Canada)
Handy to keep around… just in case.
