- rafram 3y agoDo they? In the US, Amazon only actually charges your card once the items ship. Until then it’s just a pre-authorization.
- chihuahua 3y agoIt seems bizarre to hear about these problems in Poland. Amazon had all this stuff figured out a long time ago. Which is why I order from Amazon all the time - it works reliably, 99.99% of the time. And they understand how to properly package things, which is what I would expect after they've shipped a billions packages over the past 25+ years. When I order from Target or Vitacost, there's a 25% chance that they throw things in a box, add a single inflated plastic bag, and ship it. Glass jars arrive smashed, shampoo bottles crack open and leak over the other items, etc. It's like day 1 for Amazon's competition in terms of packaging.
- gambiting 3y agoNope, in Poland(and in UK as well) it charges you immediately, unless the item is specifically marked as pre-order(like new unreleased yet games and films - those get charged when they ship, everything else gets charged the moment of order). I've ordered a new router from Amazon few weeks ago, it was showing as "shipping 5th of April" (they were on backorder I guess) but they charged my card straight away.
