Cool, are they gonna start actually shipping products in 2 days again, or are they going to at least stop advertising it?
I usually “collect” some products before buying them, so I’m always above their limit. I am totally not getting their Prime scam.
Canceling Prime was a great decision for us after they raised the cost. Since then, we order about twice a month. The shipping date is notoriously wrong on the free shipping selection, packages arrive sooner.
My Prime subscription is due to renew in the next few months, and I’m going to let it lapse. It’s getting hard to find genuine, trustworthy products on Amazon. If I wanted no-name crap drop-shipped from China, I could probably get it on Alibaba cheaper. For everything else, I’ll buy locally when possible, and buy from the manufacturer otherwise.
Good because I won’t buy from amazon anymore(actually stopped 2 years ago)! I always search local and I pick up, faster, easier and cheaper most of the time.
I’m trying to move in this direction. I used to use Amazon mostly out of convenience and because they could get uncommon, hard to find stuff to me within 2 days when buying anywhere else would take 1-2 weeks. Now that they regularly fail to even get stuff to me when they say they will, and they are as generally evil as they are, I’m trying to get into the habit of buying from anywhere else.
I know ebay is fairly evil too, but I try to buy them from them if I need something oddly specific. If not, I go local.
Not me fam, the less I have to do, the better. Amazon shipments literally save me 2-3 hours a week from not having to go to the store.
Prime membership ftw!!!

Its not 2-3 hours, It works well if you order online with pickup option. And to be fair, its useful when I’m about to go home and the store its on my way.
I had Amazon Prime for nearly 10 years, and in the beginning it was great, but I got tired of spending ~$120/year for 6 day shipping. I don’t use Prime Video, because so much of what’s on there I am not interested in, and when I cancelled my yearly subscription, in the explanation field, I said that if anyone could reach out to me and explain Sauron’s motivations and arc in the Rings of Power, I would renew. Nobody reached out. If they killed the billion dollar crap TV shows and brought back 2 day shipping, I’d return, but instead, we’ll get another season of Wheel of Time.
This just means I order less frequently from them.
You don’t have to buy more, just buy the same things you bought 2 years ago that’ll put you over the new limit. Keep those treasury printers going brrrrrr.
This isn’t new …
This fucking thread 🤣🤣🤣
Amazon is evil for raising shipping on their least valuable customers, they are monsters. SCAM!
It’s going to get soooooooo much worse.
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
