We have one-click ordering turned on for our Amazon.com, as we frequently buy from Amazon.com. We also troll the Amazon Appstore every day, since Amazon.com makes an app free daily. That combination may not be the best idea.
So far it's only been four days since the Amazon Appstore opened, and we were interested in three of the four apps. However, we "bought" all four of them. How did that happen? Well, with one-click ordering turned on, we managed to accidentally buy the fourth one, by clicking on it accidentally.
That's all well and good, because it was free, anyway. What, however, if it was a paid app? You'd be stuck, that's what.
While the Android Market has a 15 minute period (down from 24 hours) in which you can get a refund, there are no refunds in the Amazon Appstore. Of course, there are no refunds per se in Apple's App Store, but if you jump through enough hoops, you can sometimes get one (doubtless if you are a good customer and make a big enough stink, you might be able to get a refund in the Amazon Appstore).
One-click ordering is great in the regular Amazon.com store, because if you blow it, you have time to cancel the order. Not so in the Amazon Appstore, so be careful where you click, or turn off one-click ordering.
