• Responding to email notices you receive.
    **************************************************
    In short, DON'T! Email notices are to ONLY alert you of a reply to your private message or your ad on this site. Replying to the email just wastes your time as it goes NOWHERE, and probably pisses off the person you thought you replied to when they think you just ignored them. So instead of complaining to me about your messages not being replied to from this site via email, please READ that email notice that plainly states what you need to do in order to reply to who you are trying to converse with.

    Yeah, I know. They are a pain in the butt. But they pay the bills to keep my server running. Just a fact of life, I am afraid.

    Want to get rid of them? Simple. Just become a Contributor level member or above and they will be gone. -> Please click HERE."

    Is that too much for me to ask of you to keep this site running? Well, sorry about that. I too wish I could get everything for free. But alas.....

    =====================


    Google Adsense ad revenue for December, 2025 was just $30 over the cost of the lease for the server running this site. So, in effect, the money providing the incentive for me to continue running this site is coming SOLELY from the paid memberships and sponsorships here. Which honestly ain't much....

I'm aggravated with their actions and response.
I found a nice Shop-vac in their warehouse which has good deals sometimes. Picked it out, paid for it, Amazon took the funds out of my bank account.
A week later they sent a message saying they didn't have it.
They did refund me, but to take that long to find out and notify a customer that one doesn't even have something that has already been paid for is lame.


They used to be better, I think they are trying to do too much and their customer service quality is going down.
 
I haven't dealt with Amazon for years now. And I have yet to find a case where I couldn't find something cheaper elsewhere.
 
Amazon now has their own carrier, Amzl. Totally horrible service.
 
I was so aggravated with Amzl when they did not deliver something Friday and their subsequent unkept promise to deliver Saturday that I decided to stop buying stuff on Amazon. So I purchase something on Ebay and come to find out it is supposed to be delivered by Amzl :face_palm_02:
