Not too surprising that they are relying on those tricks to get people back on it. There are no real deals on there, anything interesting to watch is always an upsell and the two-day shipping has been flaky. I canceled because I wasn't sure I was getting any value out of it anymore and it was just causing me to spend more money with them.
Is there a good alternative to Amazon? I don’t like how high the price for Prime has become, I don’t use the video service much, and shipping is hit or miss. Plus most products are some generic Chinese brand.
