Re: Amazon Prime Price Increase

Maybe will use stronger tape now. The paper tape is cheap & holding by strings after UPS slid it around (how I got my last Amazon order).

Re: Amazon Prime Price Increase

Amazon finance chief Brian Olsavsky said Thursday that his company will hike Prime's fee to $119 a year, from $99, on May 11. The new price will apply to existing Prime members' renewals starting June 16. Olsavsky made the comments during an earnings call with analysts. If your regular renewal is on or after June 16, you won't be allowed to prepay for another year at the currently lower rate, an Amazon spokeswoman said.

My order received today was in an open box!   All was in the box, but it does make me wonder about the cheap shipping equipment!!

Amazon raised the price on shipping even for Prime customers.

As a student, I get it for 1/2 price. Even at full price it would pay for itself because I order from Amazon so much.

 

@bikerbabe

 

we get it for the student rate also because of my kids. even that is increasing $10. we have been paying $49. not sure if i would ever pay the regular price or not, but at $49 it has been worth it.

Re: Amazon Prime Price Increase

All prices eventually go up.  For us, it's well worth it in savings for Prime.

@CLEM  You're lucky.  It doesn't start until May.
