So annoyed with Amazon trolls

I'm so annoyed with Amazon trolls here, annoyed enough to decide to cancel my Prime membership which turns over next week. 

 

I'm not cutting off my nose to spite my face  - I don't buy a whole lot  beyond books and now that the ofeerings from the public libraries are so much better, I just don't need Amazon all that much.

 

 

I had promised myself to give them up last year and missed the deadline somehow -  not happening this year.  The troll Amazon is probably paying just paid me $99.  I'll keep careful track of my Amazon shipping costs in 2016, but I bet they'll be under 99.   It's a good deal if you order lots of heavy stuff or stream music and TV -- I do none of those.  Bye Anazon.

@millieshops you had me till the part about canceling your membership : )  I can't stand the spamming trolls here but I can't do without Prime lol. 

 

It looks like the mods removed all those threads pretty quickly.

I don't have Prime and I have never paid shipping at Amazon.  Everything I have purchased falls in the $35 ships free or free shipping from the vendor.  It neve seemed like a smart purchase for me.

And QVC needs to fully remove the thread, or the spam continues.  There's still at least one floating around.  

 

(Hmm....or maybe Amazon is paying to have these appear, thus they don't disappear completely?)

 

At any rate, it won't have any negative impact on my Prime membershp.  I buy a lot more from Amazon than most other places

@Tinkrbl44, it's a person who keeps posting links to Amazon advertising 85% off.  They had several of the same last week and now they have started again.

LOL, as far as I can tell it was one poster that flooded the board 2 days in a row.   They weren't Amazon, just a regular posters trying to get the word out of the sale IMO.  So it really has nothing to do with prime.   I watch a lot of video as well as take advantage of free shipping.  I save well over the $99 a year.   To each his own.

Nope...never heard of that either.
