Amazon Temptation.
[ Posted by Dan on January 25, 2003 | 2 Comments ]

Amazon TemptationAmazon has done many things that are usable, or innovative, or just plain new, but this new one is lust plain devious. Upon arriving at the site today, in an effort to buy Doctorow's book that I don't have to buy, I saw the item you see to the left. They really seem to be woprking the impulse buy angle (eg, the Gold Box) these days.

But I know I don't need it. Let the impulse buyers burn their credit, devious marketing strategies are for suckers.

Well, it IS on his wish list... that's where those things load from... so they already know he wants to get it. Just a gentle reminder that it's still there when he's ready to order.

Comment posting has been turned off because I don't have enough time and will to deal with the constant comment spamming. I'm very sorry and will fix this sometime soon (soon = before 2004 ends).
