looks like if your camera stuff hasn't shipped yet, you are out of luck. I just checked my bank account, and I have two reversals on it from amazon. I still have 1 camera and 1 lens that hasn't shipped yet. Looks like its not going to at this point. Cant be too mad, i at least got a couple of things out of that order. Congrats to everyone that made out with something!
Much cheaper at the rightstuf sale right now (assuming you're talking the Blu ray sets)
I got one Olympus Camera. And the Sony camera bag/memory card. But I have a feeling I won't be getting any of the other stuff. Man I wish it had been the Sony AR7 II I had gone for instead. I didn't know it was a blanket price glitch.
Reminder that Amazon workers are on strike, and you are all crossing the picket line. You could actually show them some solidarity and respect, you know. You probably don't actually need any new crap.
I would go on strike for my student loans. But we'll... I can't.
I respect it, but this is one my side hustles and how I can afford to pay rent and loans both right now.
Edit: That came off way different than I intended. I'm just frustrated becuase I want to support them. But I have to take every opportunity afforded to me. And unfortunately this is one.

Instant Ace
Anyone have one of these instant Ace cooking blenders? I'm interested but I'm not sure of it's usefulness. Just wanted to see if anyone had an opinion.

So far got a dash cam, T-shirt press for the wife and echo show. Not much of a haul this year.
Is there a way to go back & earn the bonus amazon credit or do you have to click the link in the app for your purchase to count towards them?

I bought 18 socks from Academy sports a few months ago, or I would be tempted, I clicked on that deal, looks like great socks, but I hate doing laundry and matching up socks, so I'm stuck with Academy sports socks for awhile.
I read on slick deals live stream that someone commented that they got a A7iii for $100. I was like wow, this really is fucking me up lol. This feels like one of those price errors that come up every once in a while. Can't see it happening again by black Friday but I'll definitely hope for it.

Looks like my Prime Day shopping is over. Haven't found anything all day. Pretty good haul yesterday though, already some deliveries today, and the rest scheduled for Wed-Thurs. A good mix of things I needed, a couple impulse buys, and a couple "it's so cheap so why not" items.

Echo Show 5 (cheap with Dot trade in)
Smart Plug

I didn't even know about the live stream. Had I known I probably would have attempted on other cameras. Ah well, c'est la vie.
What were your big hauls? Other than camera stuff if you nabbed those.
Don't worry I didn't get shit lol, I'll take it as a loss and focus on saving up for some zoom lens that I want.
If they worked at Amazon at one of the striking facilities, sure.
No it's not. Crossing the picket refers to workers who go back to work during a strike. We're not workers (most of at least)

I'm actually thinking of keeping this Olympus. I have some Canon Rebels coming as well (not from the price mistake). But they aren't the latest so they can't do 4k video. The Olympus video actually looked really solid. Can anyone comment on their capabilities?

My toilet was blocked so I bought a plumbers snake, I'm sorry.
This is like the definition of a thread crap. I understand where it's coming from but c'mon now.
Looks like I'm in the same boat (minus receiving the Olympus). If my A6000 doesn't show up I don't have any use for the memory card or the bag; would you recommend just returning them or try selling them on craigslist/offer up for a potential gain?
Yes It came in! Please do not message me to buy one and sorry if I didn't respond to your PMs, I have no interest in selling them at the moment since I'm trying to take all of this emotions in. 2 Sony A6ks are coming in tomorrow and the others will arrive thursday. Also today I had a Sony A6K order that was an ETA for 3 weeks. They pushed it forward to a week and then I changed it to one day delivery, now it's arriving this Friday. Hang in there for those who have orders in, this is legit and amazon seems to fulfilling them. What a wild ride of emotions these past 30 hours
I have no idea. Same boat here. I'm assuming we didn't get the bag/memory at a discounted rate
Nice haul my dude, I got a couple of those AR7 II coming in as well. I honestly have slept like 3 hours since I placed all my orders. What a wild fucking ride lmao
Most definitely going to have photography as my new hobby
This hurts too much to see those. I got a photography degree, but sold my camera because of stupid student loans years ago. And just 2 days ago, I thought, "it might be time to get back into photography!" Then God, Thor, or whomever, threw me a bone with a cheap camera. Except I missed the bone. Lol
Congrats you all. I'm gonna do do my best to not be bitter. Next year I'll be ready.

Man I'm excited for you after reading this post. This may be the most enthusiastic recap I've ever seen. I just got a couple of them but the Olympus is awesome so far and I'll give the Sony to my friend.
Anybody read this comic Low - Book One?
It's on sale for $26 and SAGA Book One is about to go on sale in 13 mins, interested in both. Which should I go with?

But really July 16 target sale last year. Cameras came in this year. Im setting my wedding day to this date one day
My opinion is, the Amazon workers are clearly being taken advantage of and need support, but I can't tell people not to buy cheap stuff. Sales are one of the only ways that people can reasonably get important products outside of their price range.
Even access to certain non-essentials is important. Many skills and hobbies were only accessible to rich and well-off people, which led to only the well-off being able to get better jobs and break into new industries. Things from programming skills to general computer skills to even making videos, music, and photography were for a long time (and still are, in many cases) only for those in a privileged position.
But that said, it's important to be mindful and sympathetic of the human cost of all of this, and I think if you have the means to not buy from them, then try not to. And if you do buy from them, maybe don't do same day delivery (which from my understanding is a big reason why they are overworked in the first place).
I had the $10 credit from Whole Foods so that just about covered it. 2 pints of ice cream, $10. What a joke.
