ok i stand corrected. that is a much better price than the single bulb i was looking at.

ebay is still almost $10 cheaper but not nearly as outrageous as $20 + shipping for a single bulb when you can get the same thing at home depot for $10.



Why are you ignoring the one I linked twice?

how is that a good option again?


It's a good option because they are potentially good sheets that can conveniently be delivered to you or returned if you don't like them. You claimed that there were no good sheets. You don't know that because you never bothered to find out.

It's up to your lazy arse to do the research. You're blaming your own inability to do your own due diligence as a consumer on the retail site. It's up to you to compare prices and ultimately decide if it's the product that you want. Amazon can't do that for you.

where??

or are you talking a 'multipack'?

show me how amazon comes even close to home depot.
Home Depot $9

granted the 6 pack is more economical but we were talking about one lightbulb originally compared to home depot.

No they don't, but I get free fast shipping and have whatever I ordered the next day most of the time because I live across the interstate from my local warehouse. Plus I am a cord cutter and actually use the prime instant video option to make the $99 worth it.

Plus, I returned half a computer after I opened most of the stuff. No way in hell anyone else would of took those returns.

He's now hanging his hat on the fact that you can't buy single lightbulbs from Amazon cheaper than you can get from HomeDepot.

Ergo, Amazon is shite.

After you factor in the gas driving to Home Depot and tax, yes.

if you need a single lightbulb, why order it from amazon when you can pick your lazy arse off the couch and go buy one at Home Depot and have it the same day you need it? this is insane.

eta and dont throw that prime 'red herring' into the discussion because that's a $99 add on fee most people dont have

Not sure how much online shopping you do around the holidays, but the Prime fee paid for itself (in my case) just by shipping costs around Christmas alone. Everything else is lagniappe. A lot of people see the fee as a lot but they'll buy online and pay shipping fees all day long. Doesn't make sense.
