The discount used to be significant, but has now been cut in half. Currently there is a 5% discount with 5,000 coins, while a month or so ago is was around 18%. Since this is a digital currency for digital goods, it's almost insulting to be offered such a negligible discount. Unless you buy $500.00 worth of coins, its not worth the trouble.

I bought these coins to use with the Hearthstone app, but did not know that this would require specifically running Hearthstone through amazon through an android device. After trying to find a way to refund the item and failing to see any way do to so other than wasting an hour with customer service, I finally was able to use my coins through an android emulator on a computer, which was way too much trouble. The coins did not give me a better deal that was worth the trouble, and since the minimum purchase is ~300 coins, I was only able to use 2200 coins - meaning I would have to buy more to actually spend all the fake money I bought. No thanks.

Would give 5 stars if they would stop raising the price of the coins and go back to the price they were just a few short months ago. Now, it's about as cheep to just buy packs from the games themselves. That is, unless you're ready to spend $375 on a game app.

No point anymore. Before the price hike it was great, now it's easier to just buy with cash.

This is a racket for thieves. Amazon takes your money before you actually purchase anything. Then when you make in app purchases you have lost all control of the transfer of coins and purchases. Machine Zone/Game of War is known for having their application restart in the middle of giving you the items you have purchased so Amazon and Machine Zone get their money and the consumer gets nothing. When brought to the attention o Amazon support I was told oh well it's not our problem. One would think that a reputible company would ban machine zone from utilizing Amazon coins but nothing is done. They consumer loses and is effectively stolen from by both Amazon and machine zone. Forget that your a loyal customer they don't care they just want your money for nothing

I bought these couple weeks ago for $81 and then it increased to $84 and now it's $89. The only savings that stayed the same is the 50000 option.

I really liked Amazon Coins when I first started using them it was a decent deal you knew for $375.00 you were going to get $500.00 in Gold Value. Well $500.00 in Gold Value less Sales Tax something that to this day they do no time make clear. Now you never know what it is going to cost to get the $500 Gold Value it can range from $350 to as much as $400. Then the real reason for the 1 star and why I will no longer recommended that anyone use Amazon Coins is that Amazon who we their customer pays for the coins and who partners with game developers will not stand by you when a game developer such as Machine Zone for Game of War who has severe latency issues causing frequent drops during in app purchases and who can take a a day or more before replying to service tickets and when you do hear from Machine Zone they tell you to take it up with Amazon who processed your payment. When you bring this to the attention of Amazon they tell you that you need to go through the game application developer who tells you they can do nothing it is an Amazon issue. The vicious circle that no customer should ever experience has now gotten worse since I had at least 4 Amazon Customer Support representatives hang up on me and they never emailed the chat log of the chat support sessions. I was cool calm collected all I wanted was a refund of the coins for the order not received and explained the game developer and I had spoke did everything they instructed which in the end was to contact Amazon no matter how I asked to speak to someone who could help me a supervisor or manager it resulted in the Amazon Customer Supports representative hanging up on me. If Amazon is not going to stand with their Prime customers by having developer meet minimum standards and take care of issues or at minimum take care of customers and dock developers funds till corrected I will use other services.

I like using Amazon because they are easy and quick to use.

As everyone else is saying, they used to be great. You got a good deal. You can buy 10000 coins for $77 and it was worth it. Now buying 10000 coins for $88, and applying tax, you're actually behind not ahead. Not worth it.
