amazon prime peaked several years ago.

aliexpress is the new wave and half the cost, if youre willing to wait 2-3 wks for the goods.

not surprised the ot lounge is still praising outdated services, however.





Don't forget the added benefit of Aliexpress. A RAT in all your software and network equipment, free of charge!

Wait, you were being serious with your post saying Aliexpress was the future and Amazon is outdated?

no idea what this means,

anyways, its not "free" if you are paying for it but nurse has always been on the slower end of the spectrum

amazon prime video is largely trash and i wanted/needed to watch anything on there i could download it.

Yeah, Amazon is generally the first company that comes to mind when you think irrelevancy.

I’ve been using Amazon for years. Ordered tons and tons of stuff from them. Of course I have Prime. Only one time did an order get screwed up and returning it was no problem. I haven’t had any issues with them. I think they are fantastic!

Agree with others that it makes it easy to buy things but I stopped after the price increase to $129 or whatever it was over $99

let me change the context of the words around and argue something totally different to prove my point - cute bro.

amazon and apple technology are outdated services but a large majority of sheep still consume their services.

so, no, they are not irrelevant, but certainly outdated with better options existing today

For me, the membership fee for Amazon is far more financially worth it than this stupid executive membership to Costco we have that never gets used. Not to hate on Costco. It just makes absolutely zero sense for a household with no other people in it.

To be fair, a large % of the shite we buy on any website or in any physical store can be found via AliExpress, but you have to know what you're doing to get the right thing. The people who buy and rebrand are doing it for us, for a premium.

I agree it is stupid, but Amazon certainly isn't the only place this is happening.
