I think it's about time we stopped using Amazon. They now have the cheek to only allow you to buy certain items if you are an Amazon Prime member.

If you want anything from Amazon I suggest purchasing via Flubit as that way you will save money.

The example they've given is Rainbow Six Seige.
It's currently £24.83 exclusively for Prime Members or £24.80 through Level99Games fulfilled by Amazon and open to anybody.
Kind of pointless really. I am an Amazon Prime member and I wouldn't buy the exclusive one...I'll save the 3p and buy the cheaper one.:footie:Regular savers earn 6% interest (HSBC, First Direct, M&S)
Loans cost 2.9% per year (Nationwide) = FREE money.

There are other examples currently being posted all over Facebook since this was announced. Apparently it's not only games. Also there are some games not available from 3rd party sellers and the only way of buying from Amazon is if you are a Prime member. Just cheap tactics to get people to buy prime membershipSmile and be happy, things can usually get worse!0
