Purse.io - save big $$ on Amazon purchases! Inside is an easy to follow workflow for making purchases..

in #money8 years ago (edited)

Here is how it works:

  • Create a wishlist on Amazon and add items you want to purchase to it. I call mine "Purse.io"
  • Update the Wishlist settings:
    -- Select your desired shipping address
    -- Enable "Third party shipping agreement" (Note: this means the person fulfilling your order does NOT get to know your address)
  • Copy your Wishlist URL to clipboard
  • Go to https://purse.io. Sign-up or Login.
  • Paste in the wishlist URL into the search bar
  • Set your discount. 5% means instant fulfillment through Purse.io but you can use the slider to go deeper on the discounts. There are diminishing returns due to the purse fee but I find using 19% or 29% are the sweet spots and give the best results if you don't mind waiting several days for somebody to fill your order. 29% might take up to a week so the faster you need something, the smaller the discount you should be willing to accept.
  • One order is accepted (meaning somebody is going to purchase your item on Amazon for you) look for it in the mail.
  • One you receive it, indicate on purse.io you received it to release your BTC from escrow to the seller. You can leave feedback as well at this point.
  • Note the item should come with a Amazon gift receipt so you can always return it if something is wrong with the item. No need to interact with the seller at all so it is very safe.

Tips:

  • Do not buy gift cards. It's easy to get scammed on those since they are instant transfer and you won't get protected from fraud if they get revoked and you've already released your BTC.
