    If the Amazon sellers are finding this a problem, all they need to do is give reviewers individual codes that only work once. If they publish codes that work multiple times then they can only blame themselves to be honest.

    Or even just dont publish the codes for all to see and use.

    No, I read this this morning and could not understand it ............ and I am no wiser this afternoon.
  • Yes it is ok for me to use them but I am obtaining them the legitimate way! That is how I know you are not!
    Those that have had emails thanking them is because the seller has no way of distinguishing between legitimate uses and your uses!
    As I said in one of my previous posts that got deleted, some amazon listings do have codes on them, codes to enable buyers to get further discounts on purchased, but you will not find a listing that has a code to get the product free!!
    Codes are issued to reviewers, it is a bond of trust between a seller and a reviewer that codes will only be seen and used once by the recipient, the reason you are seeing them is because somebody has betrayed the seller and issued them publicly without the sellers consent!
    If you look on the code thread you will see a post from a seller stating the damage that this causes. Sellers are people just like us trying to make a living! And when you wipe out there inventory they are at a great loss.
    I am friends with a lot of these sellers through working with them so I know this is not legitimate and I know it is causing damage.
    I don't blame you at all for wanting freebies and to save money, your not at fault, the person issuing the codes here is! Just please realise what affect it is having on good honest people.
