When We Left Earth

So, Amazon is offering all 6 eps of When We Left Earth for a whopping $0. Only catch is you have to download them. Total file size is about 6 gigs. All glorious HD.

Background: When We Left Earth is Discovery's documentary about the space missions. They got exclusive access to NASA's video archives, to celebrate 50 years of NASA. Gary Sinise narrates it. and if you're not sold (for the price of free) yet, most of it is in HD, and all of it is fantastic.

http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B001Q4HZBG?tag=dealnewscom Just enter "BLASTOFF" as your code before you buy it and then buy it. You'll get a confirmation email telling you that you spent $0, so don't worry if it says you're gonna get charged $12.

Getting it now... Bahahaha fuck me.

Be sure to enter the code first guys. Now I have to see if I can retroactively get my $12 bucks back.

EDIT: Oh well, screwed the pooch on that one. I hope no one else makes my mistake. I assumed it would give me an option after clicking "buy" to enter a code. It doesn't. The code link is above that buy button.

E-mail support and tell them you're a raging dumbass, they'll probably refund you.

"So I'm a raging dumbass and clicked buy before entering the "BLASTOFF" code, thinking, for whatever reason, there would be a prompt for the aforementioned code in the buy menu. Any chance I can retroactively get that $12 back from my stupidity?"

There's something wrong with the code you entered. Please check the code and try again.

Yes, might be just for N America as it wouldn't let me watch the videos either.

Hello,

I'm sorry that you are having trouble with your promotion for "When We Left Earth: The NASA Missions Season 1".

Because of the circumstances, I’ve issued a refund of $11.94 to your account. This refund will go through in the next 2-3 business days and will appear as a credit on your next credit card statement. The video license for this order has been revoked, so you will need to return to our site and place a new order using your promotional credit.

I've reviewed your account and verified that the promotional credit is available on your Amazon.com account and you don't need a claim code.

All you need to do now is place your new order and the order total will be deducted automatically from your promotional balance. You can access the product detail page at the following URL:
