Amazon Kindle 3G £95.70

CobraRover

there is an amazon kindle 3G (RRP £149, its the more expensive one with the keyboard) on auction site spree4.com currently at a price of £95.70. They also charge a delivery fee of £5, and you would also have to buy £10 worth of credits to even view the auction, but even then at a total price of £110.70 its still about £39 cheaper than buying it on Amazon (about 25% off?)

Can be found here http://spree4.com/auctionDetails/Amazon+Kindle+3G/ and its the "Buy it Now" auction, ID287 (make sure you check the ID before purchasing credits just in case someone has already bought it). When you have credits click "check price" on the said auction and it should display the price at £94.70 (drops £1 every time someone checks it) and there will be an option there to buy it outright.

I can vouch for this site, used it on and off for a while and never had any problems.

Again not a massive saving, just thought Id put it out there in case anyone is specifically looking for a deal on a kindle.

AGAIN, please make sure the auction is still open (ID A287) before buying credits to bid!

So does this mean you have to pay to even view it, even if you don't end up buying it? Sounds a bit off to me

Yeh it does, its a reverse auction site so you have to actually top up your account with credits to play this particular type of auction they have on the kindle. They give 2 free credits when you sign up, but it costs 30 credits to view the kindle auction. The cheapest credit pack you can get is 100 for £10, so you would still have some credits to go for other items on the site afterwards if you wanted. People paying to play is the reason why items go cheaper.

Its one of the lesser known not-so-busy sites of its kind, but I have had things off them in the past (amazon vouchers, cash auctions) and never had a problem.

No-one has snapped it up yet, its still there. Whether its gone any cheaper than the price quoted originally Im not sure as I dont fancy spending 30 credits to check as I dont want to buy it! Only looked in the first place for my mum, and she doesnt want it =/
