this is actually an are they being unreasonable?
so I've actually registered to post this as I'm so annoyed with amazon.
I went on maternity leave a couple of years ago and found myself buying more and more from amazon. its convenient for me, I don't have to trek out to the shops with children, and there are plenty of options so I generally can buy what I want. yes I'm aware that there are tax issues, and people do avoid using them, but they also tend to have the best prices - this is important to me.
I look at this prime option and think I don't want to pay the extra money for quicker delivery, as I plan in advance and allow the time for the slower free delivery. so I'm careful not to get caught out when I buy my things from them, and everything seems ok.
until yesterday when I go to buy more nappies.
my money is now no good anymore, as the nappies I have purchased the last few years are now not available to me anymore, but exclusively for prime members.
so this is their latest trick to get everyone to sign up to prime - withdraw products that were previously on general sale to just their special member club people.
it feels like coercion. I know the answer is don't use them, and I'm going to explore other options for everything else I buy too, but its so handy for me. I'm feeling very annoyed today.
has anyone else been affected by this?
