Yeah amazons return policies are pretty damn good.

I've gotten some free items in the past, including a microwave due to the driver delivering to the wrong house.

The person drove to my house so nice on them, and amazon told me to keep it after the refund if I ever found it.

Amazon sent me one order which was correct but they overcharged me...for the customer inconvenience they refunded the total amount plus shipping and said to keep the item.

Does anyone use Capitol One shopping app ? It searches and applies discount coupons , I get discount offers but usually after I've bought the item, one item that possibly could have saved some $ was from Zoro, which got poor reviews on Trustpilot. So thus far not impressed with it.

They have treated me well...its not surprising that they are the largest online retailer in the world. I have never had to wait over 5 minutes to get live customer support (calling early mornings and late evenings) and only 2 other companies I've dealt with can come close to that. I have read recently that they are ramping up for even quicker deliveries by drone. I have received a few items same day as ordered...probably from nearby warehouses. Quick delivery's are the icing on the cake for online customers.
I activated my free month of Prime since I needed a bunch of things for the new house. Annie needed a last minute gift for her sister in Chicago and I just ordered it earlier today and it'll be delivered tomorrow. It's not the end of the world if it didn't get there until after Christmas but it was nice that it'll be there for her early.

My thoughts are they same as @RedDakooter05 in that I hate Bezos but the company (and just about every employee) has always been pleasant to deal with. Occasionally I'll get someone who I just can't understand so I'll just hang up and call back later. I've found early morning is the best time to get someone you can understand. A couple times I've got someone who I couldn't hear because of the rooster in the background lol ?

What's with all the expressed hate toward Jeff Bezos? For one, this should be a forum that doesn't go down the political rabbit hole. Second, we shouldn't bash a successful businessman who employs thousands of hard working Americans. Third, Bezos, who looks to have Libertarian leanings, has given to Republican causes almost as much as he has to Democratic causes. I really dislike the use of the word 'hate' without valid explanation.

In a sense he has indirectly contributed to global philanthropy as his ex has given $17 billion to causes, from that costly split his wealth has rebounded to some $235 billion with some nice amenities like a $500 million yacht. He's certainly not hurting, people like bezos and musk will always be disliked by many because of their extraordinary wealth and a tax system that allows them to flourish.

You're right! All this hate for Jeff Bezos is to distract us from the real pimp/pusher on Ranger5G.

I won't say his name but he was from Arizona and has a stinger. =p

You should see all the 303 in my garage! =D

My dislike for him has nothing to do with his wealth. I never begrudge a person for being wealthy because most have worked hard or had the knowledge and skills to get there. They're usually for personal and/or political reasons which I won't discuss here. These are discussions you have over a bourbon and a roaring fire. ? ?

Rockauto is great, especially when parts are delivered nearly next day from Aurora... ?

Assuming that location has what you need. I did a bunch of work on my daily driver over my Thanksgiving vacation and parts were shipping from everywhere ?

That's the only place I've gotten to things shipped from since we moved out here. ?
