Amazon Prime Day

I have to think Amazon Prime Day is a scam. I'll tell you why. This Sunday I ordered a percussion massager for $48. I went to check the order status this morning and the exact item was listed for $56 on sale today for Prime Day. I guess it's buyer beware on Amazon Prime Day. It makes me rethink my image of Amazon.

I use the Keepa app to track prices of items on Amazon.

You can buy it from Walmart for $39.99.

What this all has to do with photography, I have no idea.

This section is "General Chit-Chat (non photography talk)". In other words our gab fest section for non contentious/political etc. subjects - those are "The Attic".

It has nothing to do with photography. That's why it's in the Chit Chat section.

When you first saw the post was it in the Chit-Chat section or was it erroneously posted to the Main Photography section and later moved my Admin to Chit-Chat leading others to think you don't know what you're talking about? Happens a lot.
