Amazon changes their policy of how they deal with disputes.

Amazon ^ | 7/19/21 | Me, Myself, & I

I received an email tonight from Amazon (I'm a Prime member) informing me that

"We wanted to let you know that we recently updated our Conditions of Use.

One of our updates involves how disputes are resolved between you and Amazon. Previously, our Conditions of Use set out an arbitration process for those disputes. Our updated Conditions of Use provides for dispute resolution by the courts.

Please visit https://www.amazon.com/conditionsofuse to read our updated terms in full.

As always, your use of any Amazon service constitutes your agreement to our Conditions of Use.

Thank you,

Amazon"

I looked up their terms and conditions to the part about disputes:

DISPUTES Any dispute or claim relating in any way to your use of any Amazon Service will be adjudicated in the state or Federal courts in King County, Washington, and you consent to exclusive jurisdiction and venue in these courts. We each waive any right to a jury trial.

I felt that this information had been transmitted in a very harsh and off-putting way, with no explanation as to the change in policy.

I quit them because of AWS and Parler.

That’s a good solution.

I haven’t missed Amazon one iota.

I do not buy from amazon so no issues.

Amazon is AWESOME!!!
You can find anything there, and read ratings from thousands of purchasers/users.
And then, once you've decided the exact product you want... you can go straight to the manufacturer and purchase it from them.
Jeff Bezos can go straight to hell, and I love screwing his awful, monopolistic, serfdom business.

[Harmless Teddy Bear]

You decided to do business with them.

You know what to do if you do not want to continue the relationship any more.

OMG I can not believe you are STILL using Amazon, I closed my account MONTHS ago I was addicted and I found I don’t miss them at all!! I found that ALL other businesses offer free shipping AND 2 day delivery, I spent THOUSANDS at Amazon!! Get the hell away from Amazon and help to save our nation!!

[noexcuses]

Living on Whidbey Island we shop Amazon a lot as well as Costco.com. We have been Amazon customers forever and never had an issue that wasn’t resolved to our satisfaction or better.

If you ever watched “The Nanny” with that big-mouthed broad Fran Dishwasher, you will understand my Amazon problem...

[GrandJediMasterYoda]

Mike Lindell of Mypillow fame and a huge Trump supporter is starting an alternative to scAmazon called “Mystore”. I would imagine it will be virtually impossible to topple scAmazon but who knows, maybe he’ll take a big chunk.

By the way, Bezos is flying into space tomorrow. Maybe he’ll run into a bit of Karma for all the crap he’s given Trump thru the Washington Post

Much as you did, I wish no ill-will on this earthly incarnation of Satan, I simply hope God Does His Will.

Amazon charged me $144 shipping on 3 books. The are idiots to deal with. My resoulution policy now is to badmouth them when possible and to never order anything form them again.

[Veto!]

I lived on Bainbridge Island when AMZ first started selling books and I was one of their first customers. Great fun back then, users could talk to each other. .Live in Spokane now. I’ve been buying ever since, but never so much as I did during lockdown. No stores, so I bought all my Christmas presents and everything I needed from them, spent so much they gave me PRIME free. Love Prime. Just found an old movie DVD I wanted, $6 on the way right away.

Bezos at least provides a real service unlike Suckerberg and that Twitter jerk. He’s entitled to spend his money any way he wishes. ...one fun thing he’s done is hire my dermatologist’s nephew as advertising manager the minute he graduated from Seattle U. Million bucks a year. Wow.

[BozoTexino]

I shop and compare at Amazon. Then I buy from someone else. It’s liberating using them to research what I want and not paying them a cent. I don’t really need anything by tomorrow.

[LibertyWoman]

Is your FB handle the same as it is on here?

[LibertyWoman]

Time for you to get beat up

[max americana]

thank God I’ve never used Amazon since 2014..

[digger48]

They recently sent my sister in law a $1000 camera lens that she did not order and has no use for

They ended up not charging her and don’t want the lens back

As I’ve been told, the restocking cost isn’t worth Amazon’s effort, so anything returned goes right in a dumpster

Often I do that.

Although a lot of good youtube videos doing head to head tests of various things are also useful, when the person doing the tests is reliable and unbiased.
