It would be silly if we think this can change Amazon's opinion toward Bitcoin, even if this petition can reach 50,000.

Trying browsing "Recent" section, you'll see all the "petition sites" are full of stupid demands.
We don't know what Amazon's opinion of Bitcoin is, apart from speculating about it. This could be a gauge of interest.
You would need a lot more then 5k signatures to get amazon to know that there is serious interest in people paying with bitcoin on their website. They selling items to millions of people every day and if they sold items to 5,000 users every day in bitcoin it would probably not even be worth their time

for every person that signs, 10 more would use but did not sign.

So its more like 50K people would use.

can you imagine the selling pressure, down to $100.

Short term spike, then sell down, then maybe rise.

I just don't know why BTCrs think retail adoption will help price much.

Signed, right now I have to transfer PayPal -> Bank Account (4 business days) -> Coinbase/Circle (4 business days) -> Gyft -> Amazon purchase.

And no, I can't buy Gyft directly with PayPal due to some stupid fraud detection thing PayPal uses. Yes I brought it up with their customer service department.

why dont you guys use Gyft and save extra 3 %?

Fuck Amazon.

Amazon could potentially offer more then a 3% discount on using bitcoin with them. The cost per TX is ~3% however they have to deal with chargebacks and fraud that is not detected at the time of purchase which can add substantially to the overall cost of accepting bitcoin

Good luck with that wish, Amazon is a blood sucker. I rather support business that help btc since the early days
