Rant Amazon....WTF

I would surely like to know what it was you were trying to write a review on and the zipcode you are in.

Toner carts.....east coast......would have been a positive review. The carts work just as advertised.

I use Amazon all the time. Hard to find a local retailer for xiaoxing wine, Chinese black vinegar, szechuan peppercorns, etc. in a rural, Caucasian (read: redneck) community. Heck, I can't even find someone that carries my preferred mouthwash (Closys).

LoL even Wal-Mart near me carry that stuff now, albeit not the brands I prefer.

Now if I wanted to buy a Blu-ray I have to be 'escorted' through the store by a BB employee. No thanks, at 55 I can parent myself, little one. COVID is an excuse BB uses to curb people from their stores and push people to buy online. Go figure, a retailer pushing people to go buy online. Even the UHD BD player I was after that they sold wasn't allowed for local pickup and Atlanta has several BB stores. So, if they want me to shop online then I'll do it with someone better than them.

I order 4 or 5 times per year. 110 orders is HUGE.

You don’t want to know how many orders we place per year - 110 orders per year is quite large, but I think we’re over the 300 mark already this year. And obviously that doesn’t include others like Walmart, where we’ve started shopping more online due to better availability and pricing on many items.

The funny thing is that I didn't buy anything from their Black Friday "sales" and only a couple of things for their Cyber Monday "sales," which were mainly stuff for my 3d printers. Nothing that good this year, and even the 2 or 3 parts I bought for my printers maybe saved me $10-$15 total.

I didn't even bother with BF.

It gets worse every year. I did see a couple of good deals on gaming laptops but I didn't need/want one. I also saw some great deals on higher capacity drives but quantities were limited so I said: "meh"

Me neither.

Computers have a discount cycle independent of BF. Buy what you need. Or buy end of lifed products of yesteryear.
