As I said before, please show me a single Amazon deal from DDMS that is cheaper on Jet.

It's hardly just mods who have "bashed" jet either.
When my grocery has a sale they are cheaper then amazon.

So a DDMS deal is not a  way of seeing who is cheaper, (just wait till jet will have deals).

Amazon isn't always cheap, but they do have frequent excellent deals backed up by real CS.

When Jet changes their CS or has an exciting deal let me know.

I certainly do, point being?

Point being that you have financial interest in seeing jet fail.
Not saying you're doing something wrong, it's just that you're inherently biased against Jet.

Highly doubt that jet is going to make a dent in Dan's personal finances

How so? Who says they don't open an affiliate program?
Regardless, I didn't hide my own bias. And I'm not the only one who posted a negative experience with Jet.

So come out and say that clearly.
Nobody is dismayed. It just doesn't make much sense from a buyer's perspective from what I can see unless you have some vested interest in it. Which you do.

Lol.
You're likely getting paid thousands of dollars a month from Amazon but you're pointing at me
and saying I have vested interests.

Thanks for counting my money, nice trait that is.

I haven't hid for a minute what my interests were. You did.

Who said I didn't want competition??

All I did was share a very negative buying experience that I had and many others have posted the same. So we're skeptical on their grandiose claims to take over the world.
What is wrong with you??

You're calling my wish for competition a "hidden vested interest", as if it's not something everybody wishes for. A list of other vested interests of mine include drinking water, sleeping in a comfortable bed, and eating tasty food. Do I have I really have to point out the obvious?

Your need to bash everyone who posts something negative about Jet in this thread has been pretty bizarre behavior. A lot more than just someone wanting competition in the marketplace.

Regardless, real competition will just make Amazon even better, so I have no need to desire Jet to fail. But they have a lot to prove, which is pretty much what most people have said before you jump on the attack as if someone called your baby ugly. Take a chill pill.

Truthfully if you put all your commission from Amazon on a side and you think about your own pocket as a costumer that buys things when you need them and not when Amazon or whoever it is decides to make deal on them, wouldn't you wanna save some money on your day to day purchases? I'm not talking on Subscribe and Save and coupon items, I'm talking about anything starting from a Weber Grill to a laptop which saves you hundreds in the long run

I haven't seen such savings in my searches.
Never mind that Amazon earns 5x.  And that my regular purchases are pretty much S&S items or what goes on a great sale.

That's because "you" are buying stuff when they are cheap and not when you need them, and 5x is less than 15%

Frankly, I don't remember attacking anyone until I was (hypocritically) called out for having financial interests in Jet. I don't have any.

I would still like to hear what will cause jet to fail instead of hearing the same complaint about customer service over and over. A few here have stated that jet has a million problems they need to fix and I am genuinely curious to hear about them.

I think the bottom line is the onus is on jet to prove they can compete not the other way around.

From the posts of SG and you it sounds like jet already proved themselves. (Statements like Amazon stinks because they ban people for too many returns, and a failed shipping service does not prove that jet is better, it shows amazon has flaws and MAYBE jet will be better in some aspects of the business. Side point to our previous discussion I usually like late shipments from Amazon because I get a $10+ each time.)

This simply is not the case.

That being said I imagine jet will be barred from ddf soon due to the T&C here.

No point if you have to pay shipping, but otherwise between 10-15%

By time most bloggers are not scared to write that they make commission from using their links, DD thinks that he'll go out of business by doing that...
