Discounted MCP Exam Vouchers from Amazon.com

I just found out that you can buy discounted Microsoft exam vouchers through Amazon.com. The discount is 15%, and the vouchers are good at Pearson Vue. They ship the voucher out in a CD case, but shipping is free if you select the Super Saver Shipping option. Note that states that contain an Amazon warehouse or physical Amazon location will be charged tax.

I had heard about this deal but never really checked it out. The Amazon.ca site doesn't have it listed but it still would save Canadians a few bucks if they ordered from Amazon.com

I'm suprised to see under the "Customer who bought this book also bought.." section that it listed alot of MCAD books. I wonder how much of an influence my wish list has on this. I would have thought that MCSE products would sell more and thus would have been listed there.

Jason-

I get the same thing (MCAD/MCSD-related items in that list). I'd be interested in seeing if other people get something different, because I would think that the MCSE products would be more popular, too.

Maybe it's an indication that the MCSD track is gaining some popularity? Or maybe just all the MSCE's wanted to pick up another certification other than Cisco !

I don't know many MCSEs who would voluntarily take an MCSD exam ;)

I'll have to check with my MCSE friends to see what they get on this page. See if it's a Wish List thing or if maybe the MCSD exams are gaining in popularity. I'm hoping it's the latter, but I'd bet on the former.
