Question
Posted by Sadaf on 8th May 2011
I want to buy the best Kindle. I read a lot and I want to know if kindle will support reading directly off internet because some books are not available for download in any format. I read somewhere that Kindle does not support colour, so does that mean that magazines and newspapers will not be displayed properly? Which Kindle model do you recommend? And lastly, how will I buy Kindle books since amazon does not support it in Pakistan? (I am in Lahore). Thanks
Answer: Thank you for all your questions Sadaf and most of the questions are what we have already addressed but would love to tell you once again .
You can read all the ebooks on amazon or any book store for that matter as all you need to do is use a converter and make those files that the kindle supports . Downloading amazon books in pakistan is no big deal we can hook that up for you . Yes the eink has its drawbacks but then it comes with its advantages like the 1 month battery time :D ..
Thank you

Further clarification for downloading with Gift Card
Posted by Confused Customer on 4th May 2011
I have not fully understood your previous reply on this topic. You mentioned USA address (?) + the need to go through the PC.
What did you mean with having USA address? And, I thought that Kindle is a stand-alone, without need for first downloading to PC and then transffering to Kindle. Could you please clarify?
Answer: Its all really simple !! .. All you need to do is that when you download from amazon you do not select the over the 3G network option as we do not have that so you select transfer via computer and this way you get the books on your pc and then all you need to do is copy and paste in your kindle folder and enjoy the latest books. The gift card is only used to pay for those orders and you can take that from us and you can also ask us to download books for you if all this is complicated for you.
Thank you

Your Price for Kindle is still too High
Posted by Dr. Shakeel ur Rehman on 14th Apr 2011
Dear
AOA, I hope you would be fine. I am a serious buyer of Kindle-3. But your price is still too high. You are charging its price ~US$237 instead of original price of ~US$140. If you can sell the kindle at about Rs. 15000/- then I would wait not even a second and will order one. Insha ALLAH. Hope to see a reduction in your price of kindle-3
regards
Dr. Shakeel ur Rehman
Answer: Dear sir you need to understand that we also pay for international shipping cost and also the duty for this product and all these costs brings the product to this price level . We are offering the best as for now but we are working out a deal directly by amazon where we can buy in bulk and get some good discount and if that takes place then our USA office shall be offering some good prices to offer for the customers here in Pakistan.
Thank you

Downloading Books From Kindle Store Using Gift Card
Posted by Unknown on 20th Mar 2011
Thanks for reducing the price for kindle. Can you kindly explain in detail how i can download books from amazon kindle store after buying the kindle from you. I know that home shopping will provide us the gift cards but i want to understand the process completely before placing the order. How long will it take to download a book from amazon store to the kindle e reader using your gift card.
Answer: Its all really simple . All you need to go is make your own account on amazon with a USA address and then get your kindle added to your account . Once you have done that you can download books directly to your PC and for those when they ask you to pay you can use your gift card provided by Home Shopping.
Once the book is downloaded onto your PC you can make it run on your kindle by just transferring the file.
Thank you
Sales Team
