Amazon Prime's Price-Fiddling and Exaggerated Guarantees
As an Amazon Prime member, I purchased a Philips electric pressure cooker from the e-commerce site on October 11, 2023, around 11:00 AM, under the guise of a "Prime Exclusive Deal." The listing stated a price of 2650 TL, with Amazon as the sender and supplier, and delivery scheduled for October 13, 2023. However, when I checked the order status on the site a few hours later, I was astounded to find the same product listed for 2500 TL, again shipped by Amazon. This is completely deceptive. It is absurd to sell a product as an exclusive deal only to lower its price within a few hours. Why wasn't it offered at 2500 TL to begin with if it was a Prime Exclusive Deal? Prices are set on a per-customer basis. When I attempted to cancel the order, I was informed that it had already been shipped. Surprisingly, despite my purchase on the 11th, it is scheduled to arrive on the 15th. The listing clearly stated a delivery date of the 13th, and this discrepancy requires the Ministry of Commerce to take immediate action. I will also notify CIMER (the Presidential Communication Center).
