Amazon US/UK - Yes.

No issues experienced. Got a few rands knocked off due to Import Duties being lowered.

Bring on the local Amazon.

[Itsa Trap]

Bought items via Amazon, supplier decided to post for some reason. Never arrived, posted the items AGAIN, never arrived. Refunded. I ordered them again from Amazon but other supplier. Couriered, 2 weeks later in my hands.

 

[nulkoel]

Mostly books from Amazon, when I'm looking for a specific edition or when they are just cheaper than local pricing

 

[stefan9]

Many times + regular prime and audible subs.

 

[DreamKing]

once

 

[Athos]

Bought from them too many times to count. Even if stuff doesn't ship here I use Aramex Global Shopper.

 

[Spizz]

I've bought and imported from UK, US and Japan Amazon stores.

barely-worn knickers?

 

[skimread]

I only buy electronics or very cheap smallitems.
Anything apart from electronics is very expensive due to import duties on type of goods.
Delivery cost for big items is also expensive e.g. backpack.

Would buy hats or other home items if it wasn't for the import duties.

 

[Spizz]

barely-worn knickers?

Yuck.

Well worn.

 

[Herr der Verboten]

Q: Have you bought from Amazon?

Drunk thread + poll? Seems someone wants to give my polls a run for its money.

 

[Monkeyz]

yup, most recently a gorgeous pack of Valkyrie themed playing cards

In the past I used Amazon fairly frequently, mostly for IT books (when that was still a thing, and very little was available locally).

Nowadays I import goods that I can't find locally, but avoid Amazon - last order from them was in 2017.
