That surely isn't good service but good you finally got it worked out on the charges and got your product elsewhere. That considered, I'd guess there quite a few more positive feelings toward Amazon than negative. (politics aside) I've been on the Prime program for 3 years and have never regretted signing up. I buy from then at least weekly... many times items I could probably find locally at the same price, but hey, free shipping and I don't need to leave the house. Then of course there's the TV, books and music. One of the things I like about shopping at Amazon (and most on line sellers) is you get a full description of the product, consumer reviews and Q&A. Amazon goes so far as to suggest alternatives to what you are looking at and gives comparative lists. How great is that. Men fight for liberty and win it with hard knocks. Their children, brought up easy, let it slip away again, poor fools. And their grandchildren are once more slaves. -D.H. Lawrence | |||

I ordered a flashlight from Amazon last Wednesday and it was on my porch Friday. Helps that my UPS guy is first rate. He arrives with my stuff at 11:30 AM anytime I am due a package. Even in the snow! The USPS? You pays your money and takes your chances! End of Earth: 2 Miles Upper Peninsula: 4 Miles | |||

I do shop a lot at Amazon, BUT I do compare to Walmart and Target and other retailers for the same/similar item. With the Target red card, they ship anything to you for free, just like Amazon, and give you 5% off for using their card on top of the free shipping. Amazon also gives you 5% off if you charge the purchase to their credit card as well. ______________________________________________________ Often times a very small man can cast a very large shadow | |||

I get great delivery speed as well. I’m pretty sure it’s due to living in the Chicago metro area and the fact that there’s an Amzn fulfillment center just over the border in Kenosha, WI. My personal favorite is getting the $1 credit for choosing “No Rush” shipping, yet they still usually deliver in 2 days regardless.  _____________________________________________________________________ “One of the common failings among honorable people is a failure to appreciate how thoroughly dishonorable some other people can be, and how dangerous it is to trust them.” – Thomas Sowell | |||

When you live in the middle of nowhere, Amazon is many times the only source for much of what I need/want. Prices are good and delivery is 99% as promised. What else can I expect?

Does anyone else here start their shopping at smile.amazon.com? Same low prices, but a small percentage of the price goes to a charity of your choice, including some veteran friendly charities like Hope for the Warriors. | |||

Whenever possible I try to buy at locally owned businesses, even if I have to pay a couple bucks more. I usually find myself ordering off Amazon though, because I can almost always find the exact product that I want, in the size or color I want, for a better or competetive price; and it'll be at my door in 2 or 3 days, usually with free shipping. ------------------------------------------------ "It's hard to imagine a more stupid or dangerous way of making decisions, than by putting those decisions in the hands of people who pay no price for being wrong."

RE: Jimbo54's Olives HA! I clicked the link and perused the page until I came to "What other items do customers buy after viewing this item?" Answer was a 2-pack! HA! Lee Precision 308 trimmer ordered from Amazon arrived today but the shell holder threads were buggered. Another is now on the way. No fuss, no return. | |||
