Anyone else remember when they used to give you a refund if it didn't come in 2 days? Lol

My favorite is I ordered dog food. It was scheduled for 2 weeks (with prime). It arrived next day. Amazon still said it wasn't shipped yet. To this day "expected delivery date is currently unknown" in the Amazon app. I ordered it in May. It does give me the option to request refund but I haven't done it as the food was actually delivered and this seems like some employee forgot to scan the sticker at some point.

At the beep, it has been 7 months and 19 days and Amazon still has not found my camera.

Beep.

I know where it is. You know where it is. Amazon shipped it loose in its manufacturer's packaging which plainly broadcast "steal me" to the entire universe and their third party totally-not-an-employee contractor delivery driver stole it. But they'll totally refund me any day now. Juuuuust as soon as it makes it back to their warehouse!

Instead I charged back my credit card. I'll never make a big ticket purchase on Amazon ever again.

Yeah, my order was like 30 dollars not almost a grand.
