I’m just glad I just avoid Amazon entirely.
Same. It’s changed like 10 years ago I would say. It was always a safer bet than eBay, but it’s sort of swung back. I use eBay more now .
What are the alternatives you’re using?
I cancelled prime years ago but still struggle to find a decent replacement.
I mean, books alone are tough with AMZ often being 30% cheaper than most online retailers. In that case, I sometimes go to eBay to get a used book (if it’s not a new release).
This past week though, I bought some athletic wear, waterproofing wax, a heat gun, and picture frames. Without prime, everything was delivered within three days. For free.
I use Amazon for research and then purchase the product for about $5-$10 more on other websites, ideally the company selling on a Amazon has their own website. I’d rather pay a little more than give a dime to Jeff Bezos.
Gotcha. I was hoping there were better market places but this works too. I’ve found sometimes that items are less on a seller’s site if it’s not something too generic. Shopping can add up though if you don’t hit their minimum.
