20% off $100 gift cards, good deal but I imagine this for the American iTunes store only. May have its use for someone though..

Mod:

Please note that Best Buy are no longer accepting Australian payments For iTunes Gift cards. The orders will go through but are then canceled shortly after. Please do not post iTunes gift card deals. See http://www.ozbargain.com.au/node/66106

Has anyone tried this? I thought they blocked this from international users, http://www.ozbargain.com.au/node/66106

You may not use an international credit card to purchase an iTunes Code. If you attempt to purchase an iTunes Code from Best Buy in the US using an international credit card, your order will be automatically canceled. We apologize for this inconvenience.

  I thought you can use any Amex card within the US, as in its recognized as a US issued card…I remember reading that when I got my card pack. However, as its no 28 degree credit card… beware of international fees + bad international exchange rates.

    I don't think it has anything to do with the type of card. I believe after they process the order for the iTunes card, they check the billing address or some other geographic metadata attached to your card. If it's not the US then they cancel it. Sounds like a manual process.
MILSWANCAs on 23/05/2012 - 01:07 ¶

When i go in to process the order, it tells me international orders can be made and give details wt to use but at the end it did authorise my credit card
MILSWANCAs on 23/05/2012 - 01:34 ¶

Ok here is the fine print

Special Note about Apple® iTunes Codes

You may not use an international credit card to purchase an iTunes Code. If you attempted to purchase an iTunes Code from Best Buy in the US using an international credit card, your entire order will be automatically canceled.

This is a shame that best buy stopped this, I took advantage of the 20% offer last year. It was much cheaper than buying them from other sources.
derdew on 23/05/2012 - 09:47 ¶

i bought this last november from these guys, following this thread:

http://www.ozbargain.com.au/node/58127

it's a shame if they have clamped down on this option for international buyers
zukand on 23/05/2012 - 10:10 ¶

Am I missing something? We often have 20-25% off in Australia…
- kearnsy on 23/05/2012 - 10:21 ¶
  
  Itunes US is the difference. It is a very good deal…when it was allowed!
richim on 23/05/2012 - 10:47 ¶

Tried it, order cancelled
woolrest on 23/05/2012 - 11:50 ¶

- MILSWANCAs on 23/05/2012 - 13:13 ¶

  - dane on 23/05/2012 - 13:43 ¶
    
    I'm getting the following error when trying to pay with PayPal;
    "This recipient does not accept payments from non-US PayPal accounts."
    :(
    - kearnsy on 23/05/2012 - 15:16 ¶
      
      Yep same error here to, maybe woolrest has a US paypal account?
    - richim on 23/05/2012 - 18:38 ¶
