The weird thing is one of the shipments was deleted couple days ago from my shipment queue. Any shipment with no updates is delated after 90 days Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

keymomachine Posted March 10, 2022 Share Posted March 10, 2022 I've been in the Amazon Fresh store near me just once, to pick up a Lego set I ordered for a discount if I picked up from there. It was really nice and I've literally never seen so many employees in a grocery store, but I'm pretty set in my grocery habits and there are like twenty options closer, so I won't be changing unless there is a deal. It felt a lot like the Whole Foods nearby, but had a lot of employees clearly picking and packing for grocery orders. The irony that it was built in the carcass of a K-mart was not lost on me. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
biking_tiger Posted March 10, 2022 Share Posted March 10, 2022 If Amazon tells me I must bubble wrap a box, do I need to put one of those "plastic bags are not a toy" labels on the bubble wrap? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

odysea11 Posted March 11, 2022 Share Posted March 11, 2022 Just wanted to share a funny one....got a message from the AMZ bots today... ASIN: B0044EFDWS, SKU: FG-YXJ9-KN3V, Title: Lego City Special Edition Set #3661 Bank Money Transfer This product has been identified as imitation currency. Amazon policy prohibits the sale of imitation and prop money that is not conspicuously marked. For more information, please see our Currency, Coins, Cash Equivalents, and Gift Cards Seller Help Page I needed a good laugh today....I sure wish LEGO would conspicuously mark their currency!? WTF? What about Monopoly??? Should that be removed also?? I think these bots are the same as the "fact checkers"....out of touch and full of s**t! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

$20 on joe vs dan Posted March 15, 2022 Share Posted March 15, 2022 Notice Amz's buy limits are being heavily enforced (limit of 3 item); in the past I use to be able to do multiple max orders. Anyone know How long does it last? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In my experience, Amazon is the safest online retailer to buy from when it comes to quantity limits because they tell you how many you can buy and prevent you from buying more than that amount for 7 days. As long as you're not trying to evade their quantity limits by using multiple accounts or other means, you shouldn't have a problem. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There was a lego i shipped in that said this, No way I was going to do it, So I paid them the 30 cents to do the 40 units, After everything checked I did a fulfillment order to myself. Of course it was not bubble wrapped I opened a case and got that fee for all 40 refunded. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
