Jeez, this has happened enough, you think I would remember. Rather than pay to have the return shipped, I'm going to nail it to the wall to remind me all the time.
If you innocently blunder into this, then you wait a long time to get something, and you can't return it the usual way. This has happened to me too many times. I'm shifting away from Amazon, and going to Aliexpress a lot more. I've never returned anything there, most of the stuff is so cheap they just send replacements. I suppose I'll eventually get pissed off with them.
First it was stores with endless lines. Now the stores are empty and I'm using them more. Amazon is apparently running out of money, so they are getting some it back. I suppose my traffic with them will get so low that I will cancel Prime, but then I have to wipe them off the books.
Aliexpress is getting down to 6 days for shipping. Neat. There prices are really cheap, but you need to look things up for an hour to find somebody honest. Blah.
ps the main mystery of Amazon was how they could swallow the delivery, and build warehouses on every other street. Well, it's time to pay the piper, and I hate that.
ps big change here. I have cancelled my Prime membership, since when I cannot order drunk any more, it releases my addiction.
ps the dog has left me in the cold to go on a dog cruise.
There's not much price difference between Amazon and AliExpress from my POV but Ali does have some really cool stuff, (if you can find it) and delivery is really fast (5 days or so) and only China seems to sell just what I want. I doubt The Donald has ever bought stuff via Ali otherwise he'd know how crap America is.
ReplyDeleteYes, I'm only getting joy on Ali.
ReplyDeleteYeah, he has destroyed America, but they don't know they're dead yet. Russia would never fly over Ukraine with jets. This will all sort itself out with a 30's depression.
