What is the expiration date for the Kwiat card? As usual I won't catch up to my postal mail for a while. Why can't they make these things electronic?

FYI - I understand there are only two Kwait boutiques where these cards are good at, one is in Vegas.

Everything around $2,000 online is now not in stock at either store and, of course, the gift card cannot be used online. I am sure they will magically appear again after this promo ends in a few weeks. Not a very elegant thing for Kwiat to do.

The moment the Cent vouchers came out, they removed all cheaper items from the store, which were on "back order" until exactly one day after the Cent cards expired...
I complained, but to deaf ears (both to Amex and to Chopard).
In previous years the free vouchers were a real bonus/gift. Since 2010 or 2011 they are simply marketing tools to get you in the store and purchase something more expensive (and in reality, the vouchers are a "discount of $XXX off a minimum purchase of "$XXX times four or five" - i.e. a 20-25% discount).
