So, I don't like ordering too often online through amazon, prefer vendors, but anyway I ordered my fuse 27 kit from Amazon, originally suppose to be delivered Oct 5, then I got a "undeliverable" email and saying they are cancelling the order. Never got my money back and the link in the email to the "status" was always offline. Last week I got another email from Amazon saying that it has been "reordered" and will arrive Oct 28th. Okay, so I'm thinking good stuff, this will take care of itself. Today I get 2 more emails from Amazon, first one saying "we've received your return" and we will credit your visa in 3-5 business days. The 2nd email says "thank you for reordering". Is this crap just normal? I only ordered once back in September and haven't been able to track any packages since. The money was charged to my visa originally but never credited or recharged. Is my package likely to arrive, lol?

Yeah, been an Amazon customer for 20+ years, I get 8-10 orders a week from them, this garbage has happened to me quite a bit in the last 3-4 months. It will eventually show up, but I have no idea what the hell is going on over there.

They have also started packing stuff like they are on acid when they throw crap in the box. I ordered a flag graphic and they used it to protect a Curt ball mount! I tried on 2 different orders and they kept using the graphic as packing material. I got smart (I thought) and ordered it by itself. They jammed it FOLDED into an envelope and sent it out. WTF!!

True. And three times in the past 2 weeks I received items that did NOT match what I ordered (vitamins instead of oil filter, etc.). I complained, they resent order, replacements were also incorrect. Canceled order, ordered again a few days later, finally showed up correct. Very disappointing lately.

That's f'd up right there. I've ordered graphics from a vendor on here and it came in a cardboard sleeve, top quality packaging.

Maybe it's got something to do with all the new employees, with covid and stuff.

The vitamins (******) were probably for @Oldfart

I’m always wary of counterfeit stuff from Amazon. I’ve had very good luck with orders but I’m selective not always based on price.

IMO, Amazon has way more third party sellers like a gypsy bazaar. Not really interested it that. Does Bezos really need our money?

I'm with you, I don't like ordering from them, but this is suppose to be the Ford factory repair kit as was in the picture, if its some chinese knock off, it'll go in the garbage.
Didn't Besos give his exwife half, he's wanting the other half from us I guess. :mad:

Ya, she left him a bit early. She’s not a bad sugar mama now. He’s still over $200B.
