Amazon.com Sucks!
I have some serious qualms with Amazon.com. I used to buy my textbooks form them religiously. I almost promoted their process of buying books and their advocation of the independent buyer. But recently I have been frustrated with their website. Amazon.com used to have this feature called "share the love." You could send info on your recent purchases to people in your circle and give them a discount if they chose to buy a book you recently recommended. Recently, however, Amazon.com has hidden this feature somewhere in their network mix making it nearly impossible to access and activate. Therefore, I've decided to buy my books elsewhere. I enjoy recommending a company that offers a good service at a competitive price. However, when that service is eschewed for stingy and shady practices, I withdraw immediately. As someone who has purchased 100s of dollars of textbooks from Amazon.com in the past 4 years, I can openly admit I will be looking elsewhere from now on. I won't recommend Amazon.com to anyone anymore. I can't figure out how to share the love. What gives?

Are there other sites that have this function? Seems like it isn't a common denominator to compare.

I'd forgotten about that feature- that was awesome...
