Nah. Amazon is quicker, no shipping fees, solid return policy and I don't need to break out the credit card and play challenge puzzles with my bank to use it online. I'll do my best to support local retailers on foot, but if I'm ordering online, I want quick and reliable. Sadly, that's Amazon for now.
It kinda amazes me, some households can avoid using amazon forever, and other household have to make orders there like their life depends on it.
How can it be some people dont need to use the service, while others find it essential? Lifestyle cant be the only reason?
Oh you are paying the shipping fee. It's only factored into the item price. That's why sometime you can't simply buy one item but at least two or five. They won't send you just one.
Yes but the manufacturer's website has the higher Amazon price and then charges shipping. So they keep the Amazon cut, they keep the "free" included shipping, and then they have worse everything else. Like charging for return labels, and 15% restocking fees.
