Did it automatically mark the gift as purchased when someone bought it? A friend of mine recently went to a baby shower and purchased the gift off of the Amazon registry, but she said it never marked it as purchased. I assume this was a fluke, but did any of you experience this or something similar? I really want to register on Amazon but this would be a definite negative!

i think it might only work if they buy directly from amazon. i'm using amazon as a universal registry, so if the person purchases from another site, they have to manually indicate that they purchased it elsewhere.

We registered on amazon and didnot have any trouble with this. In fact it was almost the opposite because it was so easy to see who got you what that it was hard to resist temptation ad be surprised!
We were happy withour amazon registry but the one caveat is that the completion discount only works for items sold by and fulfilled by amazon, so i would keep an eye on that.

I didn't have this issue!

@MamaCate: thanks! I will be sure to register for stuff sold and fulfilled by Amazon when available.
@autumnlove: Yay! Happy to hear that

I didn't have this issue either - as soon as someone bought something off the registry, I got an email alert. It also creates a "thank you card list", which is handy.

No issues with that either, and ive used amazon for both my wedding and baby registry.

I did not have this issue if they bought it off my list.

I did have this issue once. I chalked it up to being a fluke technical issue.
Someone purchased the a&a blankets i registered for and i guess it didnt show immediately. Someone else bought the same ones the same day. Luckily it was an easy return. -

No issues here!

We had no problems ! Our friends seemed to like it too....every single person at my shower bought off the registry.

We registered on Amazon. Had no problems with items being marked "Purchased"..even when a friend didn't purchase it on Amazon she was able to go our registry and mark that it was purchased elsewhere.
HOWEVER.. the returns are an entirely different story. Because we had the items shipped to my mom's house (since we work all day & can't open the door for UPS), when we wanted to return the items, UPS will only pick it up at my mom's house. After much back and forth with both Amazon and UPS, we just shipped it back via USPS and just waiting for our refund shipping costs now.

I didn't have this problem with Amazon. I did have this problem with Target.

I didn't have that issue. There was one item we received 2 of, but I think MIL may have ordered it wrong, like not through the registry. (and luckily it was Bac Out so we can use extra!)
