gasp No. They wouldn’t. A monopoly? Anti-consumer practices? No. I refuse to believe these slanderous lies.

Slander?! I resent that. In print its libel.

Fun thing, if you don’t sort by “Prime” you’ll often find that there’s another one of the exact item you’re looking for - without Prime - but actually for a lower price. The Prime isn’t actually free shipping, it’s just baked into the price

Plus the delivery dates are a joke anyway. Prime or not my orders all show up in the same amount of time. Sure they promise it’s always 1-2 days but that doesn’t seem to matter.

In amazons defense it’s 1-2 days shipping not processing or handling but they are definitely still deceiving
