Feels like Amazon is getting annoyed by how we constantly think of some small thing we need, find it and hit buy, and then maybe an hour later we think of another thing, find it and hit buy.... and then we do it again maybe an hour after that...
They're starting to run the checkout process through another step that says something like, "Do you need anything else?" before getting to the final checkout button.
Of course this doesn't work because we always *think* we've got everything this time.
But at the same time, they’ll sit on an order for a week or more before even shipping begins (“free” “2-day” shipping, even). Seems like Amazon’s m.o. hasn’t changed since the 1990s: sit on the money (the “float”) for as long as possible, and profit from that.
By the way I just did a 2600-mi road trip. The sheer amount of trucks and cargo railcars emblazoned with the Amazon-smirk-logo is phenomenal. Interstates and rail lines stuffed w/ Amazon merch moving around.
@bigzaphod this is silly anyway. Depending on the size of the item you HAVE TO split your orders up into several orders. I ordered a printer the other day and heck no I am not going to order all the photo paper with it at the same time.
Amazon delivery SUCKS in Germany. I HAVE TO avert them like the plague. They just throw sh*t in the hallway
Same goes to several other shipping companies. Always pickup. Always.
