Yes but I'm sure he meant every word of whatever point he was making.

I have Amazon prime but it "only" costs me $50 per year. I meant to cancel it but they auto-renewed it in February.

Amazon’s website crashed as soon as Prime Day began

Amazon’s website is suffering an outage on Prime Day, the e-commerce giant’s made up sales holiday designed to maximize orders and single-day revenue. According to DownDetector.com, Amazon has been experiencing issues as of around 3:05PM ET today, with a large spike in reports in the last 10 minutes. Prime Day officially began at 3PM ET / 12PM PT.

It’s not immediately clear how widespread the outage is, and whether its only affecting certain regions of the US. Some users have reported being able to access product pages, but not the Amazon.com homepage. Some are not experiencing issues at all, while others are seeing the company’s well-known “dogs of Amazon” page, which is the company’s placeholder art during full-blown outages that highlights well-known pets of Amazon employees.

The $10 is the full retail price. That was my point. You can't do any worse price wise. I'm also paying $50 a year.

It's not just cheap shipping its also convenience for me. I've got a boat dock that has some big motors on it to get the boat into and out of the water. One of the covers blew away during the hurricane last year. I had no idea on how to get a replacement. Manufacture is kaput. Call marinas, boat storage places, boat sales? I go on Amazon and within 1 minute I've got the exact cover and its delivered in 2 days. Fit perfectly.

You don't see any value in using Prime? Thats cool. To each their own as they say....

Pay Amazon $50-$120 a year. Get free 1-2 day shipping on all Prime items. No yearly/daily/monthly limit on number of packages or cost for shipping. You usually get free standard shipping on most other items.

You also get prime, music, TV and movies for free.

I appreciate the explanation. I have Prime. Just got it last month. I forgot to add the word day.

How does Amazon Prime Day work? There are special, limited deals?

It's for people who don't already have prime. See how great this is, you should sign up promotion.

Yeah, their site has been crashing today. But yes. Special limited deals. I got a couple pair of shoes and a Fire 8 tablet last year. If you were kinda thinking about getting any of the Amazon stuff like Fire tablets and Fire Sticks and Echos and stuff, this is the time to do it.

It was Amazon creating a consumer holiday in the summer. Other sites have jumped on the bandwagon advertising their own deals as well.
