Have a bunch of credit card reward points that I can use to cover purchases made thru amazon.com
Spotted some comc listings on amazon.
Know that comc has a 20% auto accept on offers thru amazon
but
Cant find a button to make offer :confused:

I don't think you can make offers through Amazon. I believe you're thinking of the 20% cut they take if you sell through Amazon. Many sellers that sell through Amazon will set their auto-accepts to 20%. My theory is if I'm already giving up that amount via one method, I might as well offer it to everyone.

You Can't. If you buy on Amazon you pay full COMC prices, but the seller only gets 80%
The other 20% goes to Amazon for COMC using their site to market your cards as a seller.

If you buy off of amazon the shipping is insane.

Somehow I thought that if a seller opted in to comc's selling program thru amazon, one of the conditions was a 20% auto accept on offers thru amazon.

Yes, see below.

thanks my misunderstanding then.
guess i just have to find cards priced at fair market value to begin with.
(which might be difficult as I assume sellers account for the 20% cut to comc to begin with)

thanks I will keep an eye out for that.
gotta spend these dang points somehow though

I got a $100 Amazon Gift Card for my Birthday and thought it might be a fun game to find something at Market Value and flip it to try and end up with a PC card.... I just decided to buy some stuff for my house instead :)!

I've got a little under $200 to play with in reward points.
Was closer to $250 but wife is the one who discovered we could use these points on amazon, when she spent about $50 worth of em on some movies.
Calling the $50 she used a finders fee. :D

pretty sure you can use amazon credit at check out on the main comc site. I'm not sure how it works w/rewards, maybe you need to load them on your amazon account first to have it available. you might want to call them before they go home for the day/weekend

Thanks I'll take a look at that. This isnt amazon credit per se though.
Its reward points on my credit card that can be spent as $$ on amazon.
Might be better off just funding comc and making offers
and then using the points to pay the CC bill.
