Wow, I'm sorry! I'd rather have the buck. In the past few days, I've ordered six or seven inexpensive items and was offered the credit for each one. I ordered them separately, of course.
I never thought Amazon would discriminate in regard to no-rush shipping. But I've got a discriminatory story of my own; I went into my account to reorder an item that cost me $10 the last time I got it and was not pleased to see that the price had jumped to $15. On a whim, I opened a new, cookie-less browser and searched for the item to learn that Amazon was willing to sell it to the anonymous me for only $9. I of course added it to a cart and then signed in.
Well, greed got Amazon that time. If the price had gone up by only a couple of dollars, I would have shrugged my shoulders and bought it. A 50% increase, however, was pretty rich. I tend to assume that Amazon knows what it's doing most of the time, but this kind of overt discrimination, and people do find out, has to create ill will.
