OldFatGuy: In today's age of credit card fraud, I've seen my purchase attempts turned down multiple times despite never being late EVEN ONCE on any credit card, bill, or whatever.
And I've discovered it will happen sometimes when a single "store" has multiple attempts at sales in a short period of time.
Well, GOG, if you provided us with a different GIFT CODE on each game of a gift purchase, we wouldn't have to make multiple purchases, back to back, just to get different codes to pass out to different people.
Please, allow us the opportunity to assign games to gift codes when we purchase. For example, if we purchase 10 games, let us say 4 will have separate codes, 2 others will be bunched on one code, and then the other four will be bunched on one code. Like that. We don't need to see any codes beforehand, just allow us to assign games to Code 1, Code 2, Code 3, etc. and make multiple gift purchases on ONE payment.
Thanks for reading.

EDIT: As an example, I just made two purchases here, back to back, and fortunately, the card took the second one. This is one of the things in common I've noticed on purchases denied. PayPal seems particularly sensitive to multiple purchases at the same place on the same day. I just got FarCry 1 and FarCry 2 for two different goggers, and it would've been so much easier to just buy ONCE and get two codes.
I asked about the ability to purchase multiple codes with one payment and I was told it's basically done as it is right now so that you minimize key resellers who pay with questionable sources of payment.And I've discovered it will happen sometimes when a single "store" has multiple attempts at sales in a short period of time.
