I admit it, I buy a lot from Amazon and I kind of like that all my purchases have contributed over $200 to the 2nd Amendment Foundation. Yeah, the anti's have not pushed them to drop them from their charitable list yet!

But now they pissed me off.

They banned me from posting any reviews, and removed all my product reviews. Seems that they don't like me providing honest product reviews when the product is a cheap Chinese counterfeit!

So beware that if you put the word China, or Chinese in any review, you will eventually be reported by the seller for posting the truth and Amazon will ban you!

I expect the FBI will be coming with a no-knock warrant soon to confiscate all my Chinese crap!

Back in the day, they sold me a crazy Benchmade nock off stop using them after that.

I seriously don't get the lure of Amazon. I buy one thing from them about every 2 years or so. My biggest complaint is their search feature sucks. If I want to find a widget, size 4, in blue, I don't want to see flux capacitors. I find EBay, Walmart.com, or pretty much anyone else better.

I admittedly use Amazon a lot. Like on the magnatude of at least 3-5 deliveries a week. There are things like pool filters or computer/tech cables or printer ink that are wholesale cheap compared to driving out to Pinch a Penny or Office Depot otherwise I don't see a lot of savings as I used to. What really makes it work for me though is that shockingly many times products are delivered within 24 hours, with some items same day for no extra delivery charge (other than the Amazon Prime membership). One of our kids goes to FSU and the same things take 3-5 days longer, so it definitely is a logistics thing and I can see going to the store being a beter option in Tally.

Don't look at reviews, its all bull. People are stupid and can't operate the products most the time.
Bought thousands of products over the years, even the cheap china crap I knew what I was getting. Same day or one day delivery is not worth going out in public to deal with dumb shit retailers or their dumbass workers who could care a less whether you bought there or not.

Sitting at home, all the dry goods waiting for me at the door like a woman with slippers and a pipe.

Have real microtech knives. Found cheap china knock offs for 30 bucks. Twice as heavy, but they work fine. A little more edge on the blade and they are sharp to.

Agree on Tally. Granddaughter at FSU, was just there this weekend and it take 3 to 4 days to get orders. No such thing as second day.

I don’t buy $hit from Amazon. I’m not even a member. But from time to time I’ll buy from flea Bay. Twice when I did, the seller then ordered my item from Amazon, & had it drop shipped to me. When I got home I remember saying “WTF is there an Amazon box on my stoop”? I thought flea Bay sellers had to physically have the items they sold. No complaint on the prices I paid though. GARY.

LOL!

The thought of walking into Walmart has me running to my 'puter to order from Amazon!
May I NEVER have to walk into one again.

Walmart has its place, but whenever I go to one around here I develop very...exterminationist...tendencies. And their delivery service is retarded around here as well, for the same reasons.

Prime member, use it all the time. They have a massive distribution center near here. There are many items I order at say midnight for delivery between 7a to 11a the next morning, no extra charge.

As a delivery service I only trust Amazon and, to a slightly lesser extent, UPS. FedEx, aside from expensive overnight delivery, is not great. USPS is a fucking nightmare, much like Walmart, and for much the same reasons.

What kind of firearm knock offs /China made do you find on Amazon?

I have ordered a surplus m16 bayonet and 2 TLR pistol lights that all seem ok

It's kind of funny how leftists are always going on about how Trump is working for Russia while they simultaneously jump to China's defense at every opportunity.
