Using Amazon gift certificates in other countries?

[Not Right in the Head]

I've got a couple of Amazon.com gift certificates that I want to use to buy something on the Amazon.fr site, but it's not letting me--it tells me the codes are invalid, even though they work on the US site. Before I attempt to find someone in Amazon's non-existent customer service, has anyone else experienced this? I'd really rather not pay US$40 for a single French CD if I can avoid it.

It's not possible.

Isn't France close to Russia? Because I know that Russia is right around the corner from Alaska

So I should ask Sarah to order the CD for me?

"I'll buy your cd and get back to ya!"

I hate that you cant order from a different country on AMazon. You are lucky to have Amazon.com - wish we could order from there. I have seen loads of Warhol stuff that is so cheap on there but they wont post to UK.

I'm in the US, but I've ordered from Amazon UK and Amazon France before, just not used items. Come to think of it, I think I once got something from Amazon Japan, too. Who the f*** knows? I can't keep track of where my money goes.
