Ah there was a time when Prime Day was kind of fun, a Christmas in July kind of feeling. But now Amazon is just so loaded with knock off junk that doesn’t work, spam postings, review manipulation, etc I absolutely dread shopping on Amazon for anything other than something I need right away, can’t get in a local store, and don’t care if it breaks in 2 months. I’ve never given less of a shit about Prime Day than I do today, and that’s even without factoring in the price manipulation noted by OP.
I was annoyed, like the OP, then I read your comment and now I’m impressed and have an urge to buy a copy of OED I most certainly will never open. They owe you a commission on my sale.
