I noticed this little trick to get free international delivery being discussed again in the It Takes Two deal, and realised I haven't seen it posted as a deal before so I thought I'd post one.

It's been known for a while now to some, but for those who don't know what to do, simply add a different item (or multiple) sold by Amazon US or UK to your cart to hit the $49 minimum spend and place your order, then cancel those items and you'll still get free shipping for the item/s you want.

Amazon US store

Amazon UK store

Mod: The OP has asked us to remove the deal, due to the reception it has received from some members. However we have kept it published, as it appears to be of benefit to many. Thanks

      I've been doing this for years and have only mentioned it in comments a couple times for this reason, $10 Amazon US items etc, I hope this post doesn't get too much traction.

      Thats true but the voting guidelines suggests that its not a valid reason to neg the deal. The 3 reasons are:
      - The deal is not the cheapest available
      - Issue with product
      - Issue with retailer

      https://www.ozbargain.com.au/wiki/help:voting_guidelines

      I think this is still a good deal for people that don't know. Its like neging a deal because you don't want it to be sold out.

      • Villainous on 28/07/2021 - 22:22

        That only applies if this is a deal in the first place. Is this a deal or is this a hack?

          To be fair without saying this is right or wrong, how is this different to other posts of massive price errors (which caused loss to the stores), or hacks for getting cheap Netflix, Tidal or other services that people signed up with fake email or physical addresses? Or buying stuff at educational prices when they don’t qualify? Would the same people down vote those deals too? 😉

  • Tim349850 on 28/07/2021 - 22:10
    +1

    I put through an order last week and was thinking about cancelling a whole order that was split between Amazon US and UK to do a slightly different one, and when I went to cancel half of it, it said that if I did it could affect other items in the order, I can't remember what it said exactly, and I decided I didn't want to cancel it anyway. But when I did the same thing a few months earlier, I don't think I got that message. So it might already be in the process of being patched, they just have a fake warning message up now and will stop it for real soon. I am just speculating.
