Amazon!🙋

Returned item this morning. Amazon emailed letting me know full amount has been refunded! Sure enough! Shows up on my account. Impressive needless to say. This is why plan continuing shopping with Amazon. Love Prime! Looking forward to watching Amazon deliver more outstanding performance. Bravo!!!🙋

Amazon has the best customer service out there.

I know! As soon as the return gets scanned by UPS, they start processing the refund. Love Amazon.

The only thing about them that really irriitates me is the pricing game they play. I can order something one day and get a good price. Two days later, after it's delivered, I decide I want to order a second "one." I see the price has gone up.

If I really want it, I pay the difference, but I'm really bugged. If I decide to watch and wait, sometimes the price comes down and sometimes the price goes higher. Life is too busy for games.

Sounds like the Q should listen up - with all the complaints on this forum for the Q, the Q seriously need to do some revisions in their company.

ITA. The Q has a whole lot of catching up to do in order to get close to that of amazon's c/s.

But that's what happens in grocery store, department stores, at the gas station too.

I buy something today, and next week it's at a lower price.

I don't see how what Amazon does is any different than that.

@pommom - I hear you. It's obvious they don't read all of the complaints on this forum - I've never seen so many complaints as have been posted lately. Really sad the Q is going downhill fast.

That's the seller, not Amazon (even though it may be "Fulfilled by Amazon"). It's supply and demand. When an item isn't selling the price goes down. If 1-2 people buy it and their stock goes down, they'll raise the price. Most of the smaller items I buy or have on "Save for Later" go up/down less than $5; that doesn't bother me.

They don't advertise or encourage it but sometimes if you call them they'll give you the price break. I would never bother for a few dollars, but once I bought something (forget what) and within 3-4 days the price dropped $40. I called; they took $40 off for me.

@pommom With QVC's antiquated web site, repaired with duck tape, QVC will NEVER CATCH UP. It is only a matter of time that QVC will gone. They just do not keep up with the times..... and will be left in the dust.

I wonder if QVC is in trouble. They've been offering the same old boring stuff for so long now, I never expect to see anything new. I never watch but I do scroll through the list of what's been up.

They've raised their prices so much it's almost unbelievable.

Does Amazon have a community forum?

Re: Amazon!🙋

MezzieStarr — Mon, 26 Jun 2017 21:10:00 GMT

@makena yes, they have forums.

Love amazon!!!

@makena

I think I discovered their forum by accident and haven't gone back to check it!

The immediate credit for a return is a phenomenon i cant get over.

It is so great...

The Q OTOH, presents clothing on TV --- A does not.

But that MAY be a moot point when one can order from A, get free shipping; return at no charge. I did this with boots and bras.

A's prices are VERY sensitive to market pricing. I check theirs against the bay for supplements and A always has pricematched them.

They must have quite a sophisticated digital system.

I love amazon as well, but I don't always get a full refund..sometimes they'll deduct for shipping

Re: Amazon!🙋

chickenbutt — Mon, 26 Jun 2017 22:45:49 GMT

I've never had any deductions to a refund with Amazon. I had to call them today with a shipping issue and I had the refund before I hung up the phone. Can't beat that.

Lately, there are some issues with shipping. Amazon has product variety over pretty much anybody, prices are best 9 times out of 10, and customer service is stellar. But lately I've been having a packing issue here and there.

She said she would submit a report to that effect, on my behalf. It's just that I feel like some are throwing stuff in a box without proper care. I had a 30# bag of dog food in the usual too big box, along with a few smaller things one of which was a thin clamshell package of seeds. Well, I bet that clamshell didn't even make it out of the warehouse intact.

The whole clamshell of seeds was emptied about the box and the weird thing was that the bottle of supplements ended up inside the clamshell! Weird, that. Anyway, I could have told ya that this wasn't going to work out.

@LTT1 Not to be picky, lol, but ebay has better prices on DVDs, usually. I look at amazon, then go to ebay, and usually buy at ebay, but only if the price is best.

@chickenbutt What is the phone number to call Amazon about a problem? I have needed to call and it seems I can never find a phone number. Thanks so much!
