Yeah, that sale [?] was a total BS move by Amazon.
Whoās running the show over there?
But but but but but Amazon Prime Day was awesome - I bought a HP Color LaserJet and a bunch of supplies with rebatesā¦ from B&H Photo. B&H had the better price, suggested $80 in rebates, shipped overnight for free and didnāt charge me sales tax.
This is what happens when you get it in your mind to make a purchase and neither Amazon now Walmart can actually rise to their own challenge. And btw, Jet was the highest price of allā¦ maybe diapers and other consumables are their forte?
FWIW, B&H has a beautiful clean uncluttered website.
Perhaps Iām the only one to have gotten a good deal on Prime Day? Doubtful.
I wanna know when is Optimus Prime day?
What was particularly surprising is that it was such a BS move that it encouraged widespread mockery and blowback; and might even rise to the level of a deceptive inducement to sign up for a āprimeā membership, if anyone were to feel like pushing that idea in court.
Itās not as though Amazon are a bunch of good-natured and philanthropic benefactors, their āfulfillment centerā gulags are well known, as are their fairly ruthless tactics in dealing with suppliers; but they have historically had a pretty good reputation for not screwing around with the customer. Generally good prices, willingness to make-good on errors and incidents in shipping or incorrect order fulfillment, minimal bait-and-switch tactics on rebates, effectively fictional loss leaders, and the various other scummy sharp dealing tactics of big box retail.
I have to wonder what they were thinking in this case. Given what actually happened, it seems like they would have been better off doing nothing than doing what they did. Is somebody living in the same bubble that made the āFire Phoneā seem like it was a worthy flagship-priced offering? Did some shareholder tell them that theyād better boost prime membership numbers within the next quarter or there would be hell to pay? I just donāt understand what they hoped to gain.
Yes, the āsamsung un105s9 curved 105-inch 4k ultra hd120hz 3d smart led tvā is a real item, really for $120k. The reviews are a hoot.
