Anyone have one of these? Worthwhile?

I have one but never use it. I'd rather have airline miles. They rush the orders for free if you pay with it, or at least they used to.

Yeah, after reading a bit more on it, it does not seem so great, and the APR is ass!

Think I will stick with AMEX and points. :) I guess I was hoping for a badass card, like Chase Amazon.com. Love that one.

I have it and love it. If you spend over $500 you get 6 months payment/interest free. So long as you pay your purchase off within the 6 months you'll be fine. Usually for me if I am planning on a purchase it is either over $500 or something that I intend on paying off the same month. I'm almost getting the urge to build again but I think I can hold off until summer of 2011. Will only have it for a year anyhow seeing as how we are all dead in 2012.

Didn't the 'no payments/interest until..' laws get changed recently? Thought it was like 2/22 or something then you couldn't do that anymore..

I hadn't heard about that. Then again I hadn't bought anything since last October.
