I order from them a couple times a week. The new Amazon delivery drivers suck, though. I went ten years without a mis-delivery and I've had two in the past month. One of them took five phone calls and 4 attempts at delivery (although I ended up with two shipments of that delivery, my money refunded, and $40 credit).

I spend about $500 a month on Amazon. I earn 5x UR buying Amazon GCs so it's a no brainier for me. Even if the price is slightly higher.

Bunch of edgy, rebels in here. Like the off-the-grid types of yesteryear.

I'd rather just go to the store and buy it and use Amazon to get Best Buy to price match it.

It's a last resort option for me. I order something from them maybe once a quarter.


Now my wife and kids wear it out.

For not wanting to shop at Amazon? I do shop online, not for everything, but like I mentioned in the OP, I would rather buy something from a brand's website. The last time I bought a TV I wanted a Visio. Had one before, it was a good TV so I decided to get another one. Instead of going to Amazon, etc I just preferred to go directly to their site.

But to each his own. I don't think you will ever beat going look at some things before buying them. Buying online is convenient as hell, but this is more about Amazon.

having a 30lb bag of dog food sitting on your front porch when you get home is worth the price of amazon prime itself.

I stopped using them when their two day shipping turned into returns back to the Baton Rouge distribution center out of the fricking blue.
Not sure what you're talking about, but maybe this helps:

I've lived in BR since January, and when I order something with two-day shipping, it always shows up at my door in two days.

If I've missed something, I apologize for being a giant dumb arse.

i get prime membership free.

I shop everyplace I can think of to get the best price. That includes shipping and the convenience of getting said item.

If I can pay a better price for an item that I can get in 2 days instead of paying more money and going arse crazy on martin Luther king drive to get.

Yea, I'll use Amazon.
