Scammed…

I have to ask what the particular flavanol. Was there a particular brand 

We just started drinking more green and black teas, and we love and eat apples too.

I have been told these flavanol-rich foods help.

I use a product called Wheatgrass Shots. An organic and raw juice powder. Perfect for keto diet. Gets rid of body odor, detoxifies, alkylizes, energizes.  Among other things. Don't get powder. Get juice type.

My inlaws used Amazon for their freezed dried dog food....it's over a week late going back and forth from Dallas to Memphis to Little Rock on a loop.

We tried Amazon - as a test - for two boxes of "Cosmic Brownies" - took over two weeks to deliver and the stores are full of personal shoppers.

We never ordered from Amazon again, and warned our parents not to either (they didn't listen until recently).

I don't buy from any Chinese company off Amazon. I try to buy products from my own country to promote our economy.

I make sure it's actually from Amazon.

Avoid Market Place.

Never order anything perishable from Amazon.

On December 30, my mom called me and asked if I could find a good flavanol for her blood pressure and order it for her. I did some research and found a good flavanol drink on Amazon.

I ordered it for her. This order went to a third party site. I paid Amazon. On Jan 4, I received an email from some Chinese company telling me that a label has been created. 

Last week I tracked the package and it said Jan 9, it will be delivered. Nothing came. The 10th I received an email from the company telling me that my product is late and they will update me next week with a new delivery date. 

What a sucky way to start the New Year!!!!!

I try not buy from Amazon if it ships 3rd party.  
I've read that many times; those are less than scrupulous vendors.  Sometimes shipping faulty products, including supplements.
And even then, I look at the vendor on Amazon to see if there are a lot of complaints/ see where they ship from.
I've noticed some of them seem to be run out of private homes, and in fact, one I checked the address was a private address.

If it ships from Amazon, much less likely to have issues like that.
I buy quite a lot from Amazon, and rarely have delivery issues.***

Same here, I usually make sure there is stock as well, but that may be overkill when I've already verified the company.

Many credit card companies have an option to create a "virtual" credit card number with a specific spending limit and expiration date, that can be used with possibly-less-creditable vendors such as Amazon Marketplace. Charges come right from your main account.

If the card number is leaked, you can report it for fraud as usual, but you can also disable the virtual number in your account. That way your main card number is not compromised and you don't have to set up all your autopay and stored accounts again.

I have my CapitalOne card set up virtual and not Citi! I used my Citi card on Amazon. Lesson learned. I have both cards in my Amazon account! My fault!

I just wanna throw in here this. That I think it is compete BS when a site asks for Apple Pay or PayPal only. Like WTF? You wanna make this as convenient as possible, but by not accepting cards you’re doing us both a disservice here.

Also. FWIW, make sure when you DO attempt a purchase, your interwebs connection is sound. Don’t ask me why….

I ordered new shoes from Amazon.  When they showed up, they were covered in mud and full of holes.  Someone must have took them for a test run.
