Re: Buy.com and Google Checkout -- GRRRR!

So, as of 1-13-08, it's still a flaw in the 'Buy.com' way of doing first-time Google Checkouts. I saved the 'how to' and there's no way to 'make sure you got the $10 discount' as the Google Checkout describes...and worse yet...at the very end there's what *appears* to be a $10 'discount' on your next purchase which is actually a scam from: (geeze, I forget the name) That I've said 'yes' to before and found that *it* charges you $9 or more dollars on your credit card (just given) each and every month until you tell your credit card company you've been had! It's such a famous scam that there's a class action suit against them. Thanks NOT, buy.com...they screwed me once before with a very flakey memory stick that nearly ruined my computer. Now this: a NON-discount of $10 and a totally rotten 'deal' at the end that isn't Google or even them. I think it's called 'Reservation Rewards'...avoid it like the plague and watch your statements if you're duped into clicking *that* after NOT seeing the $10 discount on your final page when you've ordered via Google Checkout. It's bad!! I too just went ahead and ordered the item. Hope it doesn't mess me up too badly, eh?
