Amazon Discussion Thread
« on: September 30, 2014, 09:38:39 AM »
Anyone ever use an Amazon price-tracking site?

I'm look at this laptop and trying to figure out if the price will go lower or higher in the near future based on this tracking site. The price has dropped about $100 in a week, but the site hasn't been updated yet today and the price is now $1 higher than it was yesterday (bringing it back to Sunday's price level). Does that imply that it's dropping days are over and it's about to shoot back up again?

Can you return a Prime item for free even if it doesn't say "Free Returns" on the product page?

You pay return shipping (unless they made an error)

I don't think anyone knows Amazon's pricing algorithm

But someone might have seen a few trends and can make a guesstimate.

What's up with Amazon Pantry? Isn't the whole point of Amazon Prime the free shipping? So why would they start charging $5.99 for each Amazon Pantry box?

I don't buy from Amazon so often, and have never had an issue.

What would you do?

I bought something (non FBA).  I ordered qty of 4 and only received qty of 1.  I emailed the seller.  It has been 24 hours and no response.  Next step?

I had a different story (defective item), emailed amazon, and they answered very quickly.

when you email a seller they need to answer you ASAP because their rating goes down on their account or not answering emails. I would advice you to either email them one more time and see if you get a response or just open a case with amazon and they will issue you a refund

I realized that I can buy Amazon Add-on items without spending $25 if I choose by shipping "Your Amazon Day shipping".

Is this a new tryout from Amazon?  Anyone had seen that before ?
