Saxon 07/01/20 9:12:39 PM #59:	If Sam Walton (founder of Wal-Mart) was alive today he'd be worth around 500 billion now. That's halfway to a trillion. And believe me, Sam would want his money in cash rather than stocks because he stopped trusting Wall Street after the '87 crash. And if that happened, Wall Street could never come up with 500 billion. . <cite>Saxon posted [p:941547067] in Jeff Bezos...

SJWFaqs 07/01/20 9:43:37 PM #62:	Saxon posted... Would you be willing to work at an Amazon Fulfillment Center? Basically you toss packages on a conveyor belt all damn day. Nope. Because you're a temporary employee whose held to piece rate style quotas while being paid NOTHING extra for all the running around hustling to get all the armchair 'deal' shoppers their mostly foreign made garbage. Amazon only gets my money when I can use a free Prime trial and they're practically giving away the item(s) I'm buying. Otherwise I stick to brick and mortar retailers because they at least know what an actual clearance price is. Even Walmart, that once thought .04 off MSRP was a 'clearance' price, now drops stuff to INSANE prices at times. Meanwhile your average consumer is happy to buy stuff that Amazon merely price matches other retailers prices on because they don't have to un-wedge their butts out of their La-Z-Boys to go get it. <cite>SJWFaqs posted [p:941548457] in Jeff Bezos...

Boggles my mind how many people bitch and moan about Bezos and capitalism, but would also drop dead if they couldn't get a phone case 2-day shipped to their house. I know how to find deals at brick and mortar stores. So Amazon only gets my money when it's something at a decent price from their Warehouse Deals portion of the site, like when I got a 160 GB PS3 slim for $80 a few years ago in mint condition or when their trade-in program was actually decent and gave me tons of credit for stuff I paid pennies for (literally, pennied game guides from Best Buy and Gamestop). The only other time I didn't mind dealing with them was when I sold on there as a third party seller for a while. Stuff that I paid $15 for (Black Ops Prestige Editions, World Of Warcraft CE's) sold for $200+ apiece because of how buyers on there just buy buy buy regardless of if these items have been clearanced somewhere (where I got them) for way cheaper. Problem there is after going inactive for about six months they purged my seller account due to inactivity, thus negating my grandfathered account that allowed me to disburse the money I was paid after their fees at any time. Now if I reapplied for a new selling account I'd be on a minimum two week schedule like a regular job, which is a crock considering Amazon doesn't wait to take their fees out of your money. <cite>SJWFaqs posted [p:941593728] in Jeff Bezos...
