scamazon takes away free shipping on july 4th. customers are pissed. 1. raise prices and offer free shipping and tell customers they are better off. 2. 2 weeks later... eliminate free shipping w/o telling anyone... 3. amazon raised shipping rates. the real pisser is that folks ordering prior to the free shipping deal had their shipping removed in the system EVEN THOUGH AMAZON FULLY INTENDS TO CHARGE THEM SHIPPING! i thought amazon folks were technical geniuses ;-) DOH!!! folks, it is obvious that amazon is grasping at straws to MANIPULATE a loss that they can spin into a hypothetical "profit." pro forma means hypothetical b/c it ain't real, folks!
