    I was able to order it, but it's stuck in a pending queue (I've never had that happen before).

    lol Probably exactly what happened too!

    Yikes! It let me get halfway through checkout and then said "items in your cart have become no longer available" and removed them.

    So, I've made about $75 at this point and more than 10 days has passed.

    If I'm going to use my funds for buying something off Amazon.com, what's better to cash out with, gift card or Amazon Payments?

    Either/or. Amazon.com can just pull money from your amazon payments account when you check out. It's enabled by default if you have a balance in payments. As I discovered by accident when I let my sister use my amazon account to borrow my prime once.

    It doesn't really matter. I'd personally go Amazon Payments, that way you can spend exactly what you need without having spare change sitting in your gift card balance. Your Amazon Payments balance will show up when you checkout on Amazon.com to use as well.

    EDIT - I'm not awake yet, I can't English well.

    I see no reason at all to use the giftcard balance. You pay right out of payments account and you can transfer from that to your bank whenever you want. I usually just leave my balance there and as it gets over a certain amount transfer to my bank.

    I searched my HIT DB for this and got real excited until I saw I did a HIT from him in March and that's probably not this one.

    Enjoy your huge bonuses guys! Grumble grumble...
