AMAZON PRIME MEMBER
August 17, 2017

I enjoy shopping at Amazon. Have been a prime member for 3 years and it pays to be one if you do a lt of shopping. Have noticed recently, that they do not always have the best price like they used to.

I use Amazon all the time, and order very frequently. I primarily use Amazon Prime it for the free two-day shipping, because it saves me so much money when I order. However, my shipment always takes three days to arrive rather than two. Otherwise, I have no complaints. The customer service is amazing, returns are extremely easy to make, and the benefits that come with Amazon Prime, like the early access to sales and the free movies and music is a very good deal.

Always been a great experience. Even dealing with vendors is a breeze on Amazon. The variety and competitive pricing is consistent and ensures a mouse click for most purchases "what does amazon have this product priced at?"

Amazon is great for people like me who can't get out. Plus when you do how do you carry things on the bus? They have every thing. I can shop until I drop.

Awful delivery service
August 15, 2017

I am a Community Manager at an apartment community and for the 2nd time in the past 2 weeks Amazon delivery person left our residents packages outside our leasing office because they were too lazy to deliver them to their customers door. One deliver person literally stated that he is not delivering in the rain and that these Amazon customers can come outside our leasing office and fight for the packages. Every since Amazon started using people off the street to deliver their packages the delivery service has been awful. They are dressed unprofessionally and act rude. Also to try and resolve this over the phone is impossible. I have been transferred 4 times and didn't get anywhere and was not taken seriously. I am very disappointed in Amazon for letting this happen. Every single day they try to bring tons of packages into our leasing office without attempting delivery. P.S. Amazon we do not get paid to do your job.

At first, I had reservations about using Fresh. I thought the prices would be high and was unsure about the quality. After trying it, I wondered why I didn't use it sooner! The prices are competitive, they offer deals, the produce is great quality and customer service is fantastic. There is a monthly fee and worth it. If you're a Prime member, there's no delivery charges for orders over 40.00. This is a great time saver!
