Amazon Marketplace

Had nothing but good things to say. Great service so far, FOUND a complete set of AKIRA Manga for cheap, FOUND used DVDs from trustworthy vendors, have been able to purchase GREAT FILMS on dvd for $10 dollars... free s/h? Can't beat that!!!

I have bought toys, cds, text books(for grad school) and even sold my old text books on Amazon.com. It is a wonderful site. They ship quick and send emails relating the status of their shipping or a sellers shipping status. Very user friendly as well. I highly recommend Amazon.com.

Beware. The very cheap third-party offerings for expensive digital cameras on Amazon are are fraudulent. and epinions should not list them. The seller
cancels if you try to order through Amazon and if you contact the seller, as they sometimes suggest, they send you a fake email supposedly from Amazon
telling you they have deposited money with Amazon to make wiring the
money safe. It is not safe and is fraudulent. Obviously there are many
reputable offerings by third parties on Amazon. All of these fraudulent ones
are from new sellers.

Back in October of 2005, I wanted to find a discontinued item (Fire+Ice Grill) and by miracle, I found in on Amazon. Regular price for this item was about $250... Amazon advertised it at $99! Wow! I purchased it, thinking this would be a great Christmas gift for my Father-In-Law. Here's where things start to SUCK!!!! I opted for the free delivery which I was told would be delivered on Dec 5, 2005. Well, on Dec 2nd, I got an email from Amazon stating that my order was cancelled because they could not get the item. WHY SELL IT TO ME IF YOU CAN'T GET IT?!!!!!!!!! That was the first and last time I will shop on Amazon.com.

I have purchased hundreds of items from Amazon almost from the first day they opened on-line (back when they did books only). This year (2005) I did 95% of my Christmas shopping there over the course of several weeks. Everything I ordered was in stock, everything I ordered was delivered on time. This included books, perfumes, video games, tools, clothes and more. Never, ever had even one problem with anything I've ordered. I will continue to keep Amazon.com as my number one on-line shopping site!

Went to the Marketplace because of price - they advertised no tax and free shipping. After I had placed my order, but before hitting 'confirm' I noticed that they had slapped on a $20 fee for shipping which almost doubled the price. Needless to say, I didn't confirm and/or order. I doubt I'll waste any more time looking around here if that's a common practice.

I have purchased many books, as well as household items with no problems in quality or speed of delivery. I was most impressed with Amazon when the Surround Sound Head Phones set I purchased proved to be less than durable. The sound was terrific but the design was such that they were easily breakable in the recharging base. Amazon immediately sent me the replacement I asked for, at no charge. Then when it also broke, they took the set back (they paid shipping) and promptly refunded my money.

I recently attempted a purchase of a vacuum cleaner through one of the private Amazon vendors who claimed one in stock, and supposedly shipped prior to Christmas. However, subsequently received an e-mail that through no fault of their own ??? they had to back order. However, they were very apologetic and offered an immediate refund if I did not want to wait for a later shipment.

MEGA STORE, litterally if you can't find it here it doesn't exisit. I order from AMAZON.com about every two weeks just cause other place simply dont' have what I'm looking for. Customer service takes time but speed and accuracy are prefect and beyond compare. They truly are the gold standard of online stores.

BAD, VERY BAD - FRAUDULENT MEASURES BEYOND COMPARE!
There is no protection against fraudulent sellers sending messages that look as if they were coming from Amazon - payments are not accepted through amazon, but by Western Union!

I bought a PS3 slim off of Amazon Marketplace for $230 only to have the seller cancel my order the next day. The reason the e-mail listed was because the seller could not ship it to my address. I just bought something a week ago from Amazon and the seller had no problem shipping to my address. The real reason was because the seller did not like the price he sold it for so he canceled my payment and re-listed the item for $299. I called Amazon and they said because it was a Marketplace sale the only thing they could do was give me a $10 rebate. The problem is, because I thought I bought a PS3 Slim, I sold my original PS3 and now I have no PS3 at all. So now the seller gets to sell their item and gets no negative feedback or anything. It makes no sense that someone is able to sell an item and then cancel the sale because they aren't happy with the price they sold it for. I will no longer be doing any business with Amazon.

I find the order accuracy and delivery speed to be great. The DVDs have often come before the date stated they would be there. The website is also easy to use.

ON MARCH 8 I ORDERED A KEYSPAN USA 19 HS ADAPTER WITH FREE SHIPPING AND I WAS GIVEN A RECEIVE DATE OF MARCH 21 SO TODAY I CALLED AND I WAS TOLD MY CREDIT CARD INFO COULD NOT BE VALIDATED I HAD MOVED 2 MOS AGO AND I HAD NOT CHANGED MY BILLING ADDRESS,I AM ANGRY THAT AMAZON NEVER CONTACTED ME TO LET ME KNOW OF THE PROBLEM,I WOULD NEVER HAVE KNOWN IF I DID NOT CALL,ALSO GETTING A CUSTOMER SERVICE IS ANOTHER ADVENTURE

I wouldn't have been able to find a certain CD if it weren't for Amazon. They have a great selection of everything, and I'd rather buy from them than any Wal-Mart, Target, or other craptacular place.

I have only one dealing with amazon. I bought a book from there a few years ago, and i must say the price was good the shipping rate was good and the speed of dilivery was fast ( i lived overseas on a small island of the coast of portugal ) and the book arived in less then a week.

my wife has ordered from there befor and she has never had any complaints

Checked some home office equipment and compared to dabs.com.

Found Amazon cheaper by 20 quid at least including delivery, so I ordered from Amazon - of course.

When I checked the confirmation email the next day, I saw my order had been split into 7, and also hat I was charged for EACH order. On investigating further I realised I was buying NOt from Amazon but other companies, which means I now have 7 reasons to complain !

If you are to order from Amazon, order it from ONE supplier only, or vbetter still DONT order anything from AMAZON. It was never clearly stated I would be charged for the additional shipping when I thought I was buying form one company - AMAZON.

When I called to coomplain, some pretty lady from the poor east tried desperately to communicate in American english and only ended confusing the issue as there was a communications gap (delay in the telephone call).

Be advised - DONT BUY FROM AMAZON - they are not as cheap as you may initially think.
