Merchants that use Amazon to warehouse and ship their items DO qualify for Prime, and there are a lot of them. I never shop Amazon without hitting that Prime Eligible button.
I've been a Prime member for 6 years - first got the trial the year I was on pregnancy bed rest during holiday shopping. And then I discovered they offered diapers for auto-ship, and never looked back. Due to allergies, there are a few specific name brands we need to buy, and I earn back my $79 every year in the first 3 months. Not only is the auto-ship price 15% cheaper, but I don't have to waste gas running all over town and I don't have to worry about running out of necessities.
The Prime video and Kindle features are just perks, but that, and the ease of public library lending, are making me seriously consider buying a Kindle Touch. Up to now, I've just used my iOS apps, but I do miss having an e-Ink reader on my morning commute.
