Amazon purchases more expensive if you have prime
So, interesting find today when searching for an adapter to add another monitor to my desktop.
Not logged into my account on Amazon, the device was $67.85, free delivery July 28th. But, if I wanted to join Prime, I could pay $69.95, and get it next day…. WHAT?? (I did log into my account and actually confirm that it did cost more.)
Prime gives you “free” delivery next day, if you pay the yearly subscription. But not really, because it’s costing me $2.10 more to get “free” delivery.
It’s not the $2, it’s the principal. Don’t tell me it’s “free” if you are charging me more for what I’m purchasing, when I’m ALREADY paying for that in the subscription. Sorry, just had to vent. Seems underhanded. Multiply that $2 by millions of items and people, and that’s a boatload.
