Amazon Wish Lists 2006 Live

2 Wish Lists for 2006:

Books: http://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/registry/FKYY928PC1KG
Dvds: http://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/registry/3UK4GPTWPYCYM

If you sort the lists by price, there should be something there for all budgets.

If you have any suggestions for items to go on this list, post them in this thread. Any suggestions for cheaper places to source the goods would be appreciated too.

If you want to order something for a specific strike force target you can do it by adding a plain card with some comments in the giftwrap option. This option doesn't cost anything - it's a little awkward but it can be done. Do not have anything giftwrapped as it will be opened on receipt so each target gets it's fair share of available goods. If you have any trouble or specific requests you don't want to post on the board, feel free to drop myself or DapperGent a PM.

If there is a good reason anything on the list should not be there, please let us know.

Try to avoid items with long lead times. We will be removing them as we see them.

Amazon are a bit limiting with what they will ship these days so we're limited to books, dvds and audiobooks/cds. Let us know if there's anything that amazon will ship that we have missed.


*****IMPORTANT UPDATE*****
Amazon will only display the cheapest price (including marketplace prices) on the wishlist and if you click add to basket, it will add it at that price from whichever seller is selling it despite their unwillingness to ship these items to a wishlist.

They do sell the item themselves (at a steeper price) but you need to go to product page from the wishlist and use the main buy from amazon button. It retains the fact that you came from the wishlist then but you will need to do the same for each item.

DapperGent

There are some places that may be a cheaper option than Amazon for stuff that appears on the wishlist.

www.play.com and www.cdwow.ie can be quite reasonable for games, dvds etc. unfortunately these sites do not offer a wishlist facility and the ease of delivery that it provides.

Like last year there will be alternative delivery options for things you've bought yourself and for secondhand stuff, most notably the Santa Strike Force Christmas party which you can read about in the Boards Events forum.

If you wish to buy something somewhere other than the wishlist or you have second hand stuff that is in good knick (and you can't make the Christmas Party), please let us know and we'll sort something out.

Brilliant. Many thanks for that, I'm dying with a head cold and only dragging myself out of bed to move SSF along before heading back to feel miserable.

Have you been near Vexorg recently?

Feel better soon.

Just tried to order a selection of the Dr. Seuss books and got the following error:

*** We're sorry. This item can't be delivered to a Wish List or gift registry address. ***

Anyone know more about this?

There's some items there from marketplace sellers. Only items sold direct from amazon can go to wishlist addresses. I'll sort it out today.

This is proving problematic. Amazon will only display the cheapest price (including marketplace prices) on the wishlist and if you click add to basket, it will add it at that price from whichever seller is selling it despite their unwillingness to ship these items to a wishlist.

They do sell the item themselves (at a steeper price) but you need to go in to product page and add it from the main buy from amazon button within the product. It seems to retain the fact that you came from the wishlist then but you will need to do the same for each item.

If anyone else finds a smarter way of doing this, let me know. I'm going to have another poke at it this evening but it's not looking good.

Why even use Amazon? They've displayed contempt for their Irish customers by limiting us to only being able to buy books and DVD's, because they can't be ar$ed complying with the WEEE!

Also, their delivery times are so bad lately, I wouldn't risk ordering from them at this stage.

henbane

We're not limiting anyone to ordering from amazon but the wishlist capability makes it attractive for our purposes. You can treat the wishlists as suggested items and purchase them from any retailer but you will need to bring the stuff along to one of the events organised for the SSF.

Ruu_Old

Just a heads up, the stuff I ordered yesterday from Amazon was dispatched today, got an email.
