Amazon America feedback

Hah.

Mine arrived today too.

They did it again.

They recommended me a totally different movie to that I purchased (Mortal Kombat).

First it was Street Fighter.

Now it's Tekken.

C'mon, there's nothing similar between them!!!!


Mortal Kombat's GOOD. That's the key difference here folks!


You might as well recommend me Double Dragon Amazon, go on, do it!

My order arrived the other day. Generally pleased with the service however the book was not what I'd call 'new'; it definitely has shelf wear.

I've not bought books from Amazon in a long time, but in order to get the first few volumes of the IDW Collection I placed an order with them last week. I ordered volume 1, 2 and 3 - all of which were in stock. So far though, my order volume 3 has been cancelled and there's a delay in getting stock for volume 1.

I could understand if it they were for sale through one of the other sellers or something, but these were apparently "in stock" from Amazon which is why I ordered them. Exactly how are the books "in stock" when you don't have them?

That's a big problem with eBay as well lately (re: advertising in-stock items when they are not). In most cases you won't know this until you contact the seller directly. This is referred to as 'bait advertising' and quite illegal in Australia. I know... my company's been fined several times over this.

With the prices they are selling them for on there, that's insane I can still pick it up locally for $60

I must say I had a pretty good experience with other stuff I bought recently. Bought a few things, I'll post up later what, but got them really quick, even a few cd's quicker than the estimated time, by nearly 2 months heh.

Does anyone know if Amazon preorders take your money before the items come out or after?

When they ship.

Got a book (comic trade paperback) from Amazon today, very disappointed in the condition it arrived in. Warped front and back cover with noticeable creased front cover and pages. Came in a padded envelope that offered no protection. I have a few books on preorder with Amazon because they were cheaper, but I'm going to cancel and stick to a company that ships books in solid cardboard envelopes instead.

Whenever I read these type of stories regarding Amazon shipping, I can't help but think of this post. *shudder*

And more recently, this.
