I’m having the same issue because I have an Amazon.ca account. I’m not sure what you mean by saying it’s an error. Today’s book is Everything Solid Has a Shadow and it says that it’s a free book to download from Amazon, and that in order to properly enter the raffle you will need proof by means of Amazon receipt that you downloaded it. I can see that it’s free on Amazon.com but I keep getting directed back to .ca where I cannot download it.gali wrote: ↑06 Mar 2018, 09:26It is an error as the book on Amazon isn't free.Helen_Combe wrote: ↑06 Mar 2018, 09:23 Thank you, but to enter the raffle, I have to have an amazon receipt of the download.

Today's BOTD is free on Amazon.com and one should get it from there.
Try this thread for help: Books from .com version of Amazon for non-.com Amazon users.

Have you tried this? Books from .com version of Amazon for non-.com Amazon users.BadEditions wrote: ↑17 Mar 2018, 14:12 I tried the instructions in that thread but it required a US address which I don't have. Does this mean I can't enter the giveaways?
When the book is free, you need to buy it from Amazon to participate in the Giveaway for that day. If you can't, you shouldn't enter the Giveaway that day.
