Amazon is here to stay lol..they are opening new centers.. using new technology to get orders filled, using robots etc.

I buy items that I would in my local store but it is often a couple bucks cheaper and delivered to my door for free within two-days. Can't beat it.

I bought new Kindles for my grandchildren..they went on sale $15 cheaper a week later..they refunded my money and sent me a text..

I bought a new upgraded Voice Fire Stick when they were released..it was back ordered and they gave me $10 credit off the item..and I received it November. it went on sale during the holiday sale for $15 off and they refunded the money..again a text to my phone..

They always stand my their items and if sellers mess up they take the hit. .Their returns on the best..as soon as it is scanned by UPS the money is refunded..again I have text alerts..

Like any store - prices vary ..they are upfront about it..as soon as you log into your account you receive "notice of changes .." to items in your basket..or list..so they are not trying to be deceitful..

I know!

People are acting like how DARE a retailer change prices!

They should have one set price, and it should never, ever change.

Except, one company did try that, and their business went down.

Why?

Because people like feeling like they are getting a deal.

So, good luck in finding a retailer whose prices never, ever change.
We are not talking about a retailer, specifically Amazon, changing prices. Anyone who shops Amazon knows the prices go up and down all the time. We are talking about raising a price on an item the day it is to go on sale for a percentage off.

Big difference.

So?

Find a retailer that doesn't do that, and shop with them.

Good luck.

I do, and I have. Don't need luck.

Amazon might have been matching a price for a low price guarantee item and then when the other retailer raised their price on the item amazon might have gone back to their regular price and showed it discounted. I've seen amazon do that with tvs.

good point. I've seen Nordies do this with price matching too,

I'm done with P.C. Just say what you mean and mean what you say. It's easier.
