Many customers report frustration with unresponsive service representatives and convoluted processes for refunds and account issues.

Customers express concerns about counterfeit products and a perceived lack of accountability, suggesting a pressing need for the company to enhance its customer service approach and improve operational efficiency to restore trust.

Reliable and Good
December 8, 2016

One of my regular online retailers. I've got many products and shipping is fast. Read description and reviews carefully and you usually will have a good experience. Pay attention to ship dates which can be long only with some out of country shippers.

I used to LOVE wag.com - that was more than 5 years ago. In the past few years - I noticed a steep decline in their customer service coupled with how terribly they packed my items. Recently - the last straw has been their shipping. They used to ship so reliably - but, switched to OnTrac and that was the worst decision ever. I placed an order over 10 days ago and with 2 day shipping it has yet to arrive. They have sent 2 "replacement" orders and they never arrive either. What a joke! I just want my money back!

Amazon Kindle Publishing
December 7, 2016

Has anyone tried to self publish an e-book with Amazon Kindle. If you have then you will likely agree with me. Writing any kind of book takes 100's of hours. Then there's your cover and so on. I found this company to be an absolute nightmare every time I published a book. Your formatting will always be wrong and your book will look terrible even if you use their own software. They will accuse you of copyright infringement and reject your book over and over. Sure I sold a few books, but I don't think it was worth the aggravation. I would advise you to look elsewhere. The last straw for me came when they started rejecting images. Not content but images from an online source that offers freely available content. And by the way, their mobi file format is ancient history.

I live on Amazon
December 8, 2016

Buy everything here. However, I no longer trust the reviews as there are many scammers. Only buy from Amazon or Amazon sellers or Sellers rated 97% or better.

Shop Amazon

Amazon is a great place to shop and save money! But not always, so don't automatically assume you'll be getting a discount for any/everything.

Most of all my orders come from AMAZON. I absolutely love them. Also, with the prime membership you get free shipping. I have only had 1 bad experience with getting an item very late with Amazon... It was a month late so I can only give 4 stars.

Almost awesome
December 8, 2016

Would be best if everything was prime, i have experienced horrible things with small retailers selling their products on the website. So if it was operated by only amazon, then it would be pretty great.

I have been with amazon for 10+ years, and have purchased everything from electronic parts to bicycle parts and you name it... they got it! Need speedy delivery?
They got it... Problem with the order? A quick email gets gears in motion and a refund
In place. But this company is run so well that problems rarely occur. And the packing of your order is first rate so it gets to you undamaged. They are always requesting YOUR feedback for ideas to better the company. Other companies should take note
For this one sets the bar!
