Amazon Prime Day lowest price great deal!! unless you count last week...or even yesterday...argh...

Ah there was a time when Prime Day was kind of fun, a Christmas in July kind of feeling. But now Amazon is just so loaded with knock off junk that doesn't work, spam postings, review manipulation, etc I absolutely dread shopping on Amazon for anything other than something I need right away, can't get in a local store, and don't care if it breaks in 2 months. I've never given less of a shit about Prime Day than I do today, and that's even without factoring in the price manipulation noted by OP.

Keepa and/or camelcamelcamel are essential when shopping on Amazon.

Recently we got a law which forces anyone offering a discount to clearly state the lowest price from the last 30 days. So many capitalist piggies must have been livid

I limited my shopping on Amazon the last few years. Too many "deals" that are the same during prime day as off. Like I was looking at a set of weights, was 199 now 99, they have been 99 for the last month now, the "deal" is now changed to "prime day exclusive" and price stayed the same. Yea... definitely prime day exclusive... definitely worth actually browsing the platform for these sales.

Prime day went from a day I couldn't wait for to one Im mad if I see ads for it.

Matter of luck really. I just bought a new phone last week and today it's discounted by $140.

I didn't expect anything but plastic garbage and Alexa devices to be discounted, tbh.

Wow, not only does Prime Day offer nothing good to buy on sale, it actually doesn't offer the lowest price over a one-month period. I'm surprised OP found something interesting to buy for Prime Day. I don't even bother checking it out because in the past, all I see is junk I don't want or need.

We've had that experience in years past, but ended up picking several items that were the lowest price in 1 to 6 months.

There weren't any crazy discounts, but it was better than nothing.

What product?

I wonder if Australians will tire saying price advertising like this is against Australian Consumer Law...... Nah

The noise cancelling headphones I had in my basket, waiting for the prime day sale, had an amazing 90p discount on them. Yay.

These trackers don't show the "exclusive Prime price," so you need to see the price in page along with the chart to actually tell anything.

I looked at a shelf I bought last month it's $2 cheaper now than it was but claims it's 30% off when it's been like 25% off since forever. Such trash. Tho I did get the pro galaxy buds for a decent discount

Only thing I got a deal on was a $29 512gb microSD card for my Steam Deck. Everything else was meh-ville.

Yeah it did not take primeday long to be like black friday. All hype.

I'm not sure what this chart is supposed to represent?

lol yes capitalism
