I'm not a prime member, but the gifts I bought 3 days ago for my gf arrived yesterday to her house with 2 day shipping.
The only thing I dislike is that Amazon caved into the state of NY and now charges NY sales tax on all deliveries to NY
Incidentally, the case all hinged on the simple fact that amazon has *affiliates* that live in NY state, and therefore under the law that equates to amazon having a PHYSICAL presence in NY, and THEREfore they are compelled by law to collect sales tax. Blah. Very bad precedent.43-922-863 Shut up and play your guitar.

I probably spend $20,000+ a year on books and electronics and stuff with Amazon and i have just one issue and its not really with them its their sellers. Its the practice of selling stuff for .01cent like iphone screen covers and then adding $6.00 mailing cost. Who the fuck do they think they are dealing with ? The mail cost on a cover i received recently was just 50cents by regular USPS so why the deception ? why not just charge a realistic price for the cover and not this deceptive way of doing business. Anytime i see this on Amazon i switch to another seller who charges a realistic price for mail even if i pay a little more for the product.
OK rant over Amazon still rocks

I sell on Amazon, and they do that for a couple of reasons. In your instance, Amazon only takes their cut from the sale price, not the shipping price.I probably spend $20,000+ a year on books and electronics and stuff with Amazon and i have just one issue and its not really with them its their sellers.

Also, in terms of sales, it makes a huge difference if a seller gets the buy box. (that isn't just based on price, but price is a factor). Lots of times, as a featured seller, I will have the buy box, and be charging 3 times what the other sellers are that listed as "also available from", and I will make the sale. Shipping costs aren't factored in to the buy box positioning formula, so that is another reason.
Or that is my guess, anyhow. I don't know for sure, as things I sell are priced much higher than a penny.

ebay use to be the same way and i hated it. You would always see a item a whole lot cheaper then others but then go to get it shipped and it was way higher than shipping should be. Then i guess enough people complained cause now the shipping price is always listed on ebay and you don't see people playing that game anymoreI probably spend $20,000+ a year on books and electronics and stuff with Amazon and i have just one issue and its not really with them its their sellers.

That's the same here, although the one thing that I found recently is that Amazon actually has some cheaper prices than NewEgg on a few of the recent items I purchased.
I do love Amazon Prime, I just joined it 2 months ago and it's sure nice having 2nd day free shipping or $3.99 overnight
