If we learned anything from last year's sales event, most of the stuff is random and the adjusted pricing may not be that much.
I also couldn't help noticing that a LOT of stuff (not stuff on sale, but stuff in similar categories, was somewhat "surprisingly" listed at full MSRP, or maybe $1-2 lower, rather unusual for Amazon pricing in general...:whiste:
I found a few good video game sales in my opinion. Shrug guess it depnds on what you were looking for.
Yeah, there was some stuff that seemed worth buying if one were in the market for it. I wasn't really "in the market" for anything in particular, and while there were a couple of things I started to go for (a pair of sneakers for example), by the time I'd browsed another dozen or so pages after putting them in my cart, the deals for the items in question had ended, and there really wasn't
anything I saw that I was willing to pull the trigger on without doing some price comparison/review searching on... Everything else I
might have gone for was discounted by so little that it just didn't seem worth grabbing as "impulse purchases".
And one thing in particular really pissed me off. Maybe I "should've known" about it, but I didn't, but apparently not only are/were the deals limited in time "overall," they were limited in time after one put them in one's cart. A couple of things timed out in my cart and despite the fact that the "deal" itself remained only only partially claimed (ie, 20%), and I couldn't get them back into my cart at the "Prime Day" price no matter what I tried. And I wasn't willing to call and try to wheedle a "special favor" out of customer service (if I'd have been successful anyway...) Between the number of totally piss-poor deals one had to wade through and the lukewarm discounts on most of what was worth looking at, it just left me quite cold... Made last year's Black Friday Weekend seem like the Deal of the Decade, which is saying something.
