    It seems a little suspicious to me. I'm starting to wonder if they're raising prices for a last minute deal where it suddenly drops to a really low price. I'd say it's still worth checking out pretty frequently.

    I mean, that would be the dream, especially since a large amount of people happen to play multiple MMOs. I'll be interested to see the future of spending in multiplayer gaming since Amazon Coins have and their being able to be used in multiple games has really been a huge advancement in the world of p2p.

    I was able to pre-purchase using Amazon Coins (NA servers).  Pre-purchasing costs 4999 coins, but after tax it's closer to 6k coins.   I don't think it's worth the hassle.  The savings are negligible especially since you pay extra coins for tax, however this is for Amazon US.  I'm not sure about other countries.

     Was it a savings overall or just too much of a hassle to get the expansion via Coins within the US? I am thinking about pursuing that route myself.
     Back when I bought it, minimal savings.  Right now, probably zero savings plus the hassle.  As of July 20th 5k coins is $45.50 but there's added coin tax, so let's say you need another 500 coins ($4.90) to cover tax, that becomes $50.40 to pre-purchase using coins.  Might as well pre-purchase directly from Blizzard for $49.99.
    Say you bought 10k coins for $89 (July 20th price) and spend 5500 coins to pre-purchase, you'll have 4500 coins left which isn't enough to buy a 40 pack ($49.99).  You could buy two 15-packs at 2000 coins each (plus coin tax) so basically 10k coins will get you 50 packs (pre-purchase) + 30 packs for a total of 80 packs.
    If you bought the same 50 pack pre-purchase for $49.99 and 30 packs for $40 directly from Blizzard, that's $89.99.  So for all the hassle of going through Amazon you save 99 cents.
     Thanks!
    Thats why I am writing about it about couple days.
    For me the price is almost the same. It is not worth
     That's understandable. I'd say, though, it's worth it (if you haven't gone through the preorder) to check periodically to see if there the deal gets better. I know that Europe has been seeing some great deals. Hopefully, NA will be able to see some of those deals before KoFT drops.

    Do you guys already bought amazon coins or are you waiting for a better price?

    If you bought which amazon de or uk is better for it? Now in de amazon price is lower than uk.

    I download amazon app and the hs from amazon but i havent got an option to buy preorder by coins on my device. It will be able to do when i buy amazon coins or I did not do something for getting this option.

     In amazon.de 5000 coins normally cost 36 euro, sometimes 41 and sometimes 45. always cheaper than 50 though. I think now they cost 36 which is the best you can find
     When I bought I will have option in hs to buy by amazon coins? Because now i havent got that option on my device.
     When you click to purchase some packs you get redirected to amazon and there it gives you the option to buy the packs with money or with coins. Then you choose coins, you choose how many coins you want to buy, and after you buy the coins you get back again to buy the packs.
     Also, make sure you have the game downloaded through the Amazon Appstore. Otherwise the option isn't available.

    That's a perfect way of putting it. Also, thank you for posting that link for convenience. I think it might also be worthwhile to keep an eye out when other games that use coins (Final Fantasy Brave EXVIUS, Summoners War, Game ofWar) are about to have huge updates. That may also lead to a strong sale in Amazon Coins.

     No doubt. I hope that Amazon Coins expand to MMO's as well such as WoW, SWTOR, etc. so that we can have a one-stop shop for everything in game :)
     Oh absolutely! I really would love it for FFXIV as well. All in all, I'm super thankful Amazon has come up with this method of payment. It's made everything so much more convenient.

    It's an interesting place to be in with Amazon Coins right now. What it really all boils down to is whether or not your already have preordered the expansion and gotten the deal. While you might want more a better deal in regards to the coins, the preorder deal is still pretty strong with the 40 packs and all. If you've already gotten the deal, I'd still say it's worth it to check daily. I've recently come on to Coins for all of my games (FFBE, SW, Hearthstone). Ultimately, it's what you can afford and what you already have that should help you decide.

    posted a message on Gifted Amazon Coins for birthday, no idea what packs I should buy (can buy 40packs)

    Since you're already doing pretty well, I would definitely go for packs that would contain cards you want. The 40 pack deal might not result in what you want. But still, whatever you do, I'm totally on the side of Amazon Coins when it comes to Hearthstone.

    1. You need to make sure you have downloaded Hearthstone from the Amazon App Store. If you installed via Google Play, you're going to have to uninstall completely and then reinstall the game.

    2. Buy Amazon Coins.

    3. The next time you log into Hearthstone there should be the option to pay with Amazon Coins.

    That's the easy way of doing it.

    SocialKonstruct is right. The perks are constantly changing and you should always check frequently to see about getting the best deal (Amazon Coins are definitely worth taking the time to do so). Right now it's a discount and that's pretty awesome, I think.

    Amazon Coins are definitely worth using, especially since you most of the time you can end up getting a really good deal. Since Amazon Coins are a $1 = 1 Coin ratio, you end up with way more than what you paid for. If you're gonna spend money, Amazon Coins are the way to go. Below are links with all of the info.

    From last I read, you aren't able to preorder quite yet from Amazon Coins. Blizzard sent a tweet that they are going to have to patch it before they can do it. So, yes, you will be able to preorder, just not at the current moment. So, in my opinion, absolutely go for Amazon Coins and keep checking frequently to for when you are able to preorder with them.

    I'd say to go for it. Amazon Coins are a great way of building a deck. Even if the promotion isn't as much as it was earlier, it's still a good one and REALLY start giving you a leg up.
