Major fail by Amazon

how many grilled cheese does 8 dollars buy

not nearly enough when you have 23 kids. We have learned how to stretch things though. Poor people are thrifty.

4 days for an item to travel 200 miles.


It's like some people have never worked in transportation or made it out of their house.

Also, a package lost is not a bottleneck.

was this an order directly from Amazon, or one of their vendors?

Also, are you a member of Amazon Prime? you can get a free trial, which I did, and the packages I've ordered since have been delivered exactly when promised.

I think my last order before Christmas was the 19th. It got there on the 23rd. I was very happy with that. I knew I was pushing it, but I had to wait for my paycheck from a hourly job to come through. My question is, if OP is unsatisfied with Amazon, and does not want to deal with B&M, where else would he or she go to find what Amazon provides?

Stick with Amazon.

2 bad experiences can't ruin the tons of other good ones.

Plus they gave me some money. Good trade off.

Yes, direct from Amazon.

Been a prime member for probably a year or so.

I got a Christmas or birthday card once (I can't remember which) that was mailed from Chattanooga to Knoxville that had a Paducah, KY postmark on it.

 

[bubbacurry1]

we couldnt make it without the cheese and powdered milk. We are at a disadvantage here in Arkansas, you know.

All bets are off if USPS.

So they gave you a refund for their hourly worker's mistakes and your still this upset?

Ha anybody mentioned that you shouldn't have ordered so late and should always allow 4-6 weeks for delivery?

how dare you!

There really isn't any "upset" in the original post.

More curiosity.

The OP is clearly a sign of a moral failing.

Yeah, they are pretty good about trying to set things right. I ordered a NASCAR car game from them(so I can conversate with the peasants) and it did not arrive on time. Upon my inquiry they not only gave me a $15 credit, but they gave me a free month of prime.

I feel like if the problems have been as widespread as you let on this holiday season they will learn pretty quickly from the amount they had to dole out to unsatisfied customers.

Lol. Probably should stick to cash only transactions also. And no Internet!

Indeed. I have a New Year's resolution now.

Sorry to hear, Bubba. I will give you money for bacon too.

And thus, part of my initial curiosity.


They gave me an extra month of prime and 30 bucks.

It's perfectly heavenly I've heard.

Doesn't accept charity. It's a pride issue with this one.

You are obviously misinformed.

how many grilled cheese does 8 dollars buy

A lot, it buys a loaf of bread and a pack of cheese. Now he probably doesn't have a cook them, and it isn't warm enough to fry them on foil in the sun, so that could be a problem.
