EN Download Shop ruined my GM Day

Arrgh! I had a fifty dollar American Express Gift card and saw that it can be used for online purchases. I put three RPGObjects products in my cart and go to checkout only to find that the Download shop does not except prepaid gift cards, because they cannot verify addresses.

It usually says on the card or in the information that came with the card that it is not accepted at all merchants. I know some stores do not accept them. A store I used to work at did not accept them and many customers were upset to come up to the registers only to find out they needed an alternate method of payment.

Personally I see this more of a case of American Express Gift Card ruining your game day.
