Amex My WishList goes live
Ready to blow some cash on a bunch of heavily discounted premium electronics (among other things)? Do you have an American Express card? We thought so. Amex has just kicked off its yearly "My WishList" shopping bonanza, and this year’s deals are almost too good to be true. For those that don’t know, every year American Express offers a collection of high-end products at incredibly discounted prices. The only qualification for participating is that you have to own an Amex card. The problem, of course, is that the deals are so good that they tend to sell out incredibly quickly, but it never hurts to try, right? Check out a partial list of stuff below, and hit the link to enjoy the deals!

Actually my first yr with the card so I didn’t know about it. Those Panasonic 1080p’s are lookin mighty nice, I think I’m gonna try my luck at scoring one. I didn’t feel like getting down with bfriday this year. They shot a person at bestbuy round here a couple years back b.f. Jersey City is serious about their laptops.
Thanks for the heads up!
I’ll be trying for the Plasma too. The Denon SoundBar would be a wonderful addition as well, but at $750 it’s priced more than the Plasma… so which one is the accesory? So confused!
yeah i got the mailers about it but i did not see anything i really needed.
I liked the BMW motorcycle, was like 10K off.
I tried getting in on this last year. I’m convinced it’s some kind of scam. You hit the website at exactly the right time and keep re-trying to get the item but it never works. the end result is frustration.
I really wanted the $4000 Porsche and the Aquos TV last year.
yeah alot like the Amazon thing where you vote for which deal you want and it goes on sale for a 1/4 of a second and then sold out.
I figured I would this year but of of the things I want won’t gon sale til later in the month.
This is one of those things that sounds waaaaaay too good to get away with due to demand. My wishlist is pretty expensive and extensive too lol.

…. damn. i kinda rather post up with oprah, denzel and forrest lol. thats a once in a life time opportunity.
the $500 hd camera and the $300 dollar elite is nothing to skip over either tho.
lol i need to work on my credit and get me a amex card crackin off for next year! lol
Yeah amex is trying to sell you the brooklyn bridge on this one. I’m suprised nobodys brought up the idea of paying off your balence in a timely fashion and getting raped on interest and I can buy enogh with my visa stamped check card. What this dose is encourage people to live outside their means.
No love for the 360 Elite? I’m a tad disappointed.
Wishlist Price: $300
Retail: $649.99
Includes:
- 120GB hard drive
- Marvel: Ultimate Alliance
- Project Gotham 3:
- Madden NFL ‘08
- Tiger Woods PGA Tour ‘08
- Forza Motorsports 2
That was worth mentioning in the original post, no? Plus it’s black, and you know there are a bunch of people who have been waiting for a black 360 (myself included). I’ll be trying to get that one, even though there’s basically no chance in hell.
thats a pretty good deal.
Gal, this deal does nothing to encourage anyone to spend beyond their means. Its just like any other sale offered at the holidays.
If you want an answer to your issue then eliminate credit, but that will never happen, so quit whining.
Who says I’m whining test? If you wanna run up bills an throw your money down th crapper that’s fine by me. Just don’t cry about how you have to pay then in dec. or jan. I’m just advocating a little fiscal dicipline that’s all.
nfortnately nothing on there really interests me or its some stuff i have….but great of amex to offer such killer deals, does make it sound too good to be true
“Fiscal discipline”, that will happen at about the same time as “Calorie discipline”.
This is what has been happening all day:
“IT’S ALMOST TIME”
“IT’S IN SOMEONES CART”
“SOLD OUT”
I have a feeling almost no one will be getting these deals.
They have that hella nice Dell XPS M1330 for like $900 marked down from like $2000. That would be nice to have.
uh oh…time to stalk daddy, or just take his card out the wallet, I want an xbox 360, with rock band!!!
Well yesterday i tried for the
best buy 150 gift card and i got it.
Later on i tried for the oprah denzel package and i got in but cancelled it not interested on it testing something out.
Today i tried for the tv and i got it. Theres a trick to it is all in the numbers as the seconds countdown and the amount of time for teh progress bar to hit 4 slick motrasuckers over at amex.
Anyways i got the following.
The tivo package
42″ plasma 1080p
and 150 best buy card.
all for 1115..living proof is not a scam.
This is American Express we’re talking about… most people with an AMEX aren’t exactly recycling coke cans to make ends meet. Not to mention these deals are well below MSRP and can EASILY be resold at a profit. I’ll definitely be trying to get in on a few of these deals.
Thanks for your concern, but I doubt AMEX is worried about me paying my bill in full come Dec. or Jan.
So what exactly is the timing you used to get in?
