Compared with many online shopping sites, Amazon is one of the best, it always gets me surprises.
Amazon has it all, the weird, the wonderful and everything else in between. Great selection of items at very competitive prices coupled with fast delivery and now with Prime, its even faster. What more can a shopper ask for?
Been a customer for years over 50 orders in past 3 years. Not anymore when I can get the same from Amazon or Walmart. And a lot cheaper! Plus last order has yet to arrive so I am out 50 bucks because they cannot package a simple shipment of cat little so it's not damaged. FedX sent it back twice now and Wag never even told me. What a rip off. As for customer service the prices went up and customer services went off shore and really down hill! Most new reviews are not positive maybe the CEZo will catch on!
The site is safe and customer service will help you whenever you need
Totally worth the annual PRIME membership fees. I love amazon for all our household needs, clothing, shoes, food, hair care products, party decor, last minute gifts, holiday shopping, tv shows and on-demand movies and so much more. Can't beat the prime shipping offers and FREE returns if the items don't fit or just aren't what you expected. I recommend Amazon to EVERYONE.
Everything I have looked at on Amazon I can find for less by using Google to find from somewhere else
I've used the service and in almost 5 years have never experienced any bad experience. They're the most comprehensive and modern website. Really little is lacking and the platform has only gotten more amazing with time.
Exemplary Control over any sellers associated with Amazon.
Amazon is a reputable company for a reason! I've never had to return any merchandise. They ship out when they say they will and are received promptly.
Mainly things that are used are always in stock but the newer things you have to wait many weeks until you get your order. Good luck on waiting you can wait up to a month for a order.
Amazon has ever been my #1 place to shop for any item ranging from books to electronics and other gadgets including kitchen wares!
It's a place I forever return for my needs!
Have only had the best with this site. From initial purchase to follow-up delivery. Return policy & cancellation... Amazon is the site you can trust!
Amazon Prime is well worth the money if you buy with any regularity. The convenience of having most things delivered to your doorstep in 2 days is awesome!
I went to a website claiming to be an affiliate of Amazon stating the only accept Amazon Gift Cards as payment, called Amazon with the website's name, and Amazon assured me it was an affiliate company of theirs, $390.00 lost later b/c it was a scam, Amazon assured me it was an affiliate, no definitely wasn't, was promised by 2 CS reps for Amazon I'd receive a full refund for $390.00 to find out again I was misinformed, they were responsible for me losing $390.00 b/c they misinformed me it was an affiliate of theirs, claimed they'd refund it b/c Amazon was the seller for the gift card that was scammed. I'd never in my life buy anything off Amazon, their shipping prices are ridiculous, go to EBay, better sellers, better shipping cost, and a well trained staff that knows their affiliated companies, and don't give hollow false promises of a refund they never planned to give, poorly trained staff, a dirty American corporation Amazon is, want to get ripped off and scammed buy an Amazon gift card and talk to their poorly trained customer service reps but forgot Amazon knew it was a scam but that's Amazon new money making concept rip off their customers with their gift cards, I'm going on every site like this and letting it be known what a dirty rip off corporation that Amazon is, they were responsible for me being scammed, admitted they were responsible, admitted they'd refund the money, all misinformation. BAD COMPANY THAT DOESN'T CARE ABOUT THEIR CUSTOMERS AND ALLOW EM TO BE SCAMMED DUE TO THEIR POORLY, UNITELLIGENT, UNEDUCATED STAFF.
Great, fast, efficient, flexible, what can I say? I rely on Amazon for most of my shopping needs. There are some products (like some art supplies) that I am forced to get elsewhere. That sucks, because no one else is as good about shipping and pricing.
Right on time.
Carefully packed and delivered.
Never a disappointment.
Fast service - excellent customer service. Great company to buy from.
This is the first and last time I order textbooks on student amazon. I paid for prime shipping and placed an order for almost $400 worth of books. Next day waited around for the order and nothing showed up after calling them and speaking to an extremely rude supervisor named Berna I found out they cancelled my order for suspected fraud because it was my first time ordering and the large amount of the order, but I was never notified. Now after reinstating my account and replacing the same order I paid for express shipping again and still have not received my package. Its now been a week, 7 phone calls, and two emails and still no package. There wasn't even an explanation as to why I wasn't contacted when my account was suspected fraudulent, the supervisor only offered me a $10 credit which wouldn't even cover shipping cost, and I've still yet to get any reply from my emails that I've sent. Its tempting cause their cheap but do yourselves a favor students and don't get your textbooks through amazon. The amount of time wasted and the frustration of dealing with there customer service staff isn't worth the trouble. Now I'm massively behind on my studies and still have NOT received my textbooks.
Answer: I concur with all of the above answers except about the kindle. I have contacted Amazon via phone and they were very helpful.
Answer: Bought a hair dryer for my daughter in Melbourne. Arrived no probs.
Answer: Try Walmart! They deliver food too, and they accept EBT as well. I am switching to Walmart now because I ordered food from Amazon Fresh on 4 different occasions, and never received my groceries. I am disabled and I live alone, so I need delivery service to be reliable and dependable. Clearly, Amazon Fresh is neither reliable nor dependable, which sucks.
Answer: I have never shipped or had things shipped to or from Australia. Sorry
Answer: This problem began when Amazon Market Place started up and when I saw how bad it was with sellers selling at 3 to 4 times the full retail price at other online stores, it was a hint for me to stop supporting Amazon Market Place. If its sold by Amazon, I might buy it but I do my utmost to find a lower price so I don't have to buy it from Amazon. More often than not Bestbuy or Staples has it for the same or lower price. Bought an Asus RT AC 5300 from Bestbuy for 500 Canadian and it doesn't sell for less at Amazon. Returns are no hassle 30 day returns and no shipping just take it to a local retail store and that saves the wrapping and shipping.
Answer: Yes I do on the items I purchase and also through google and sitejabber
Answer: It takes longer if you don't pay monthly for Amazon prime.
Answer: The shipping cost is in the listing if that's what you're asking. If you click on new/used, it will be below the cost. If you have Prime, most things are free shipping.
Answer: You answer on the actual question I believe.
Answer: The above answers are good - I agree that a personal contact on the phone is best. - Go to 'Your Account', then click 'Let Us Help You' -then click Help - Then 'need more help',- then click 'Contact Us' - fill out the 3 steps and choose 'more no norder questions, - then clock on phone - from there it will direct you (how long the wait etc and they call you back)
