I know someone that had a deal running for a kitchen gadget just 20% off from the previous day, the day before he just sold 2 units on Prime day he sold 500 units in less than 2 minutes

People buy things that are on sale, regardless if they need it.

I would've rated Prime day a bust for me, even though I did pick up some things I wanted anyway at good prices. Then over Shabbos we get this humongous box. Turns outs my wife wanted to buy the Amazon wipes. She tried to get the discount on multiple boxes, and once she realized it was only on one order, she changed the quantity to 1... or so she thought. The box had 5 cases of the wipes, and apparently the total order was for 8 cases, 7 at full price. So she calls Amazon to try to wrangle free returns, or maybe to honor the sale price for all 8. I think you guys know the rest of the story - "we'll issue a refund right away, and don't worry, you don't have to ship them back to us".

8 cases of wipes (48 packs of 80 in total) for under $4.40. I'd say Prime day turned out okay for me

They're doing the Prime Day Bust again this year, per email I received today:

Make sure you’re ready for Prime Day!
Hello from Fulfillment by Amazon,

Prime Day, our global shopping event for Prime members, is coming mid-July! Last year, Prime customers ordered over 34.4 million items worldwide, saving millions of dollars in the process. Make sure you’re prepared to take advantage of this opportunity!

Start preparing for Prime Day today!

Thank you for selling on Amazon.

Sincerely,

The Fulfillment by Amazon Team

Not worth losing sleep over it. At least not if it will look anything nearly to what it looked like last year...

Supposedly this year they will actually vet the deals

Basically relying on the same one who promised "major" deals last year. $:-\$

You mean "more" "deals" than Black Friday

Sort of. It was so not worthwhile remembering that I couldn't remember their precise marketing terms...

Do you think the code might work even without the Amazon.com CC?
