I got bit by something similar, bought this garden hose adapter from someone who wound up never shipping it but indicating they would ship it in some ridiculous far out shipping window. Amazon is degrading into the wild west of eBay experience that turned me off from that platform a while back.
- Grishnakh 10y agoI got really sick of Ebay a while back and didn't buy much on there for a rather long time. Interestingly, now that Amazon's been going downhill, I've gone back to Ebay and have been getting a LOT of stuff there. I'm now finding it to be a much better place to get a lot of small stuff, such as parts for rebuilding small engines for yard equipment. It's not the easiest interface to work with when buying a bunch of small stuff, but they do let sellers consolidate orders and reduce shipping prices, it lets me keep track of my orders easily, and so many sellers are there with the lowest prices (lower than going to a dedicated parts-selling website, in my experience). Plus, it's easy to search by part number because the sellers list the part numbers right in the title. It's much harder to find this kind of stuff on Amazon for some reason.
