I'm not sure it will save a lot of money in postage as I think (I may be wrong) Amazon did away with the free postage over £x ages ago.
I think regardless of cost, it's free postage now.
I know I was looking at something priced at £3.66 and you can get it delivered free with 'Super Saver Delivery'.

.

Yes they give supersaver but you dont know when it will be delivered, if you order with prime its next day delivery even on a Saturday so its ideal if you want something quick or want it delivered on a certain day as you just order the day before

If you have 4 friends then its only £10 a year each, a bargain in my book (not worth £50 tho!)

Yeah, i still have Prime as i ve shared it with 4 of my friends , so £10 for a years worth of next day delivery including saturday is worth it.

Probably worth reiterating to everyone that you can share your Amazon Prime membership with up to four people, so that does make it better value.

I'd like to say that the Amazon Prime cost for £47/8/9/whatever is tremendous value. In the last fortnight alone I placed 6 orders with Amazon and Mrs V has placed 2 orders - all delivered next day.

I thought it had to be household members whom it could be shared with?

Amazon ripped me £49 off too. On top of that my bank balance was nil. I am extremely angry. Did anyone get a Refund back? If you have any advice please let me know???:mad:

DID YOU GET RIPPED?:( CONTACT AMAZON FREE 0800 496 1081 & YOU SHOULD GET A REFUND, (Remember to push them hard)! :j

Amazon Prime Delivery is a Total Ripp-off. Using tactics for people to order more items.

Just think about it most (99.9%) items you buy have free delivery. Its not worth it for people who order few times a Month (Unless your Rich) . :A

Im sure 99% people who cant wait for Delivery will not pay £49 & rather wait few days.

My advice is read what's right in front of you. You clearly cannot, but that's not Amazon's fault...it's yours.

Firstly, clearly you have read none of this thread otherwise you wouldnt post such garbage. It couldnt be more clear, they even made it bright and colourful for the more simple folk.

Secondly, I do not fathom how £49 for a YEAR is expensive, just over £4 a month for unlimited, next day delivery (near enough guaranteed next day on every occasion) is a flaming bargain. To be honest, if this is a lot of money to spend at one time then either you are most probably still at school and not yet get got a job or you really should ask for a pay rise!

Apologies kuzz911...this is the longest daylight day of the year. With all that sun and moon stuff going on I should have realised you signing up to MSE to complain on this day isn't your fault. Obviously you've been blinded by the light (good song BTW) and are not responsible as Amazon didn't supply you with a Braille copy.
