Ok so I have $80 dollars worth of giftcard credits to my acct. I am tryin to purchase some steelbooks from canada so it takes me to amazon.ca. How doesnt recognize my giftcard credit and wants to charge my credit card. How do I get them to convert the funs over so I can purchase those steelbooks with my giftcard credit. It automatically applys when I order from the US. Help anyone thanks. Got Em!!

You're SOL on that, they are all different companies Amazon US, CA, UK etc they all have different sales and prices and don't accept the others credits. This is why so many people buy from UK once the VAT is removed their prices + shipping are cheaper than US and CA on many movies.

I even buy on some occasional sales at Amazon US but they charge us Canucks exhorbitant shipping and border fees even though they ship USPS and we usually don't pay on smaller items but it still comes in cheaper than buying at Amazon.ca.

We get the shaft on so many things up here in Canada but that's another story for another time...
