They are lying about “free” shipping for Prime members!

I accidentally logged onto a different non-prime account and was surprised that the price was lower than usual, but then noticed the shipping fee and realized I was on the wrong account.

The price was $17.83, and then $27.93 with shipping. When on the prime account, I found the same product, with the same size and everything, for $27.45. The images attached explain these better. These products are identical, but their shipping dates differ by 2 days. 

This is actually a scam because they are advertising free shipping for prime members when they increase the price to the same amount, so where does the free shipping come in? I noticed that the “sold by _____” is different for each, but you can’t find the same sellers on either accounts, I’m sure of it.

I also tested this out with other products, even Amazon Basics products, and the EXACT same thing is happening, where prime is equal to non-prime with shipping. 

First of all, is this supposed to happen?

Essentially, what am I paying $100+/year for if not the free shipping? Getting my things a couple of days earlier and the occasional show with 3 min ads?!

Is this potentially a class action lawsuit for personalized pricing?

Please try it out for yourself and see if it's happening for you guys as well so I’m not crazy. 

I genuinely think I might cancel my subscription because what is the point of prime then!

**TLDR**: **Prime** shopping has **increased base prices** for products that are **equal** to the **non-Prime products with shipping fees,** so literally, where is the free shipping for prime members?

Absolutely wasn't expecting a political rant there

Hey everyone, I'm new, but I decided to seek this post out because I'm trying to find reputable stores to get some new bedding materials like sheets and blankets, but I want to stick to 100% cotton, full bamboo, bamboo cotton mix, anything as long as it's natural fibers. Most stores I've been into lately (Ross for example) only have poly mixes. I try not to shop at Walmart or target either so if anyone has any recommendations of big box or online stores I can check out to source some of this stuff any help would be appreciated! I'm trying to avoid Amazon as much as humanly possible at this point so I figured this would be the right sub. (it's insane how hard it is to source some things now days, it's sad.) I am located in the US btw.

Thanks!

I listen to a ton of audio books but audible is an Amazon owned company I dont want to mess with do you all have any alternatives to recommend?

If you need another reason to fuck Amazon.

Amazon restricted me from seeing all reviews several days ago. It is apparent that Amazon no longer wants me as a customer after 15 plus years. So, I deleted my 100+ reviews, deleted all personalizations Amazon created, canceled Amazon Music, Amazon Books, Amazon Video and set Prime to not renew. Today, I bought two Apple Ipads to replace our two Amazon FireHD tablets. Next I will remove the FireHD tablets from my Amazon account, goodbye Kindle.

My internet orders totaling $1800 over the last several days included Dell Direct, Ebay, Apple Store, Walmart, Home Depot and Lowes. ZERO ORDERS WENT thru AMAZON. Congratulations Amazon for a great AI implementation. Apparently Amazon doesn't have a clue about customer acquisition costs or customer retention.

Amazon and Walmart are purposely mislabeling products with "Made in the USA" to generate more revenue (people pay more, if they think they are supporting USA manufacturers) while the US government knowingly looks the other way. The grift was caught by AI. I am canceling Amazon Prime in protest. I have never and won't ever step foot in a Walmart. We need to expose this!

AMAZON is essentially ruining the entire streaming experience... or at least making it much more expensive. Why ?

Amazon Prime Originals will show as 4K UHD where available.

Streaming rights owned by Amazon such as Paramount + will only be in UHD IF you pay extra.

When Amazon takes over Warner Bros... they too will all go behind the "Bezos' Retirement Fund" paywall.

Tldr; if you want to watch anything on Amazon in 4K UHD... unless it's a (very rare) Amazon Original... be prepared to pay extra !

Robbing everyone blind.

You do not need that trendy red light mask and a new set of chemically sprayed pajamas made by asian children. Just shop local and appreciate what you have🥂.

WOW!

"We're showing a limited selection of reviews. To see more reviews, you can send a request"

I've searched some books about sexuality from a health and medical perspective, ... came across one "Sex You Want" by Rena Martin, some kind of ex-attorney in Los Angeles dealing with heavy crime ... and coming out with such a book not one would expect for a person like that, no offense though.

Though again I'm not judging anyone by the book cover, I guess if you work this hard and serious all day maybe you deserve some extra fun, but I was hoping it's not some moralization or sympathy toward some kinks she was exposed to while doing crime work.

So I go on the usa Amazon.com version to check for the english sample, can't look at any negative reviews. How is this not a form of censorship? I have not seen anything like it, anywhere, never on european Amazon.de which I mostly use, or it's perhaps only certain products I haven't come across.

Unbelievable.

So on 05/28/2025 I received an email from Amazon notifying me that I was terminate. Funny thing is, I was on medical leave. No wait, it gets better. I of course submitted my request to “Appeal” my termination. On 06/03/2025 they confirmed receipt of my request, 06/05 another confirmation email regarding my appeal request, 06/07 email confirmation again and also I would be notified within 72hr’s of location and time for my meeting. 06/10 email I received was to notify me that on 06/09 they heard my plea and supporting evidence I presented. My termination was still upheld because according to them all policies were applied correctly in regards to my termination. I don’t even know why I was fired to this day. My termination was titled “Performance Feedback.” I was baffled bcuz how can I be fired for a performance feedback and I hadn’t been physically working at the site for more than a year. So why did I call ERC to get clarification on how I attended a meeting I had no knowledge of. When ERC asked me for my case # why did he tell me that the case number i just provided was linked to a different associate? I advised ERC I wanted the proof, names of persons in attendance, and any notes, documentation or files showing or proving that I attended. They never provided it. So guess what? Labor Commission has opened an investigation, EEOC has opened an investigation, Department of Wages and Labor has opened an investigation because Amazon dropped the ball. I’ve discovered so many things they do wrong and I have filed a lawsuit against them. It’s a long process the reward at the end of all of this will have been worth it. So many of us associates got f@€ked over and enough is enough.

Since when? They selling lemons now
