Chosen One 1111 (@1111_ChosenOne) reportedI love it! I am no longer an Amazon Prime member, so my shipping will be longer, but between all the online stores I am sure I can get real creative with this. I have no issue waiting longer for shipping. I believe in supporting small business owners everywhere. Thank you @grok for helping me today with this one project.

JSK Map (@jskmap1284) reported@funkochar @DisTrackers The Flora and WB Horror singles are up on Amazon, but they’re priced the same as the cases ($89.99). I’m sure they’ll fix that.
-
MORTEM TYRANNIS (@D_Moynihan) reported@AmazonHelp You have two issues. The first is that you sold me an item based on the fact that it would be here by 8am this morning. You lied to me to get my money. The second issue is I returned an item that was supposed to be refunded by the 16th and you’re showing a delay. I need help!

Recon Bull (@ReconBull) reportedIO Fund reports Big Tech stocks are lagging behind AI infrastructure suppliers in 2026. $GOOGL shares have gained 11% this year, while Amazon is up 8%, Meta is down 2%, and Microsoft has declined 18% as investors await proof that heavy AI spending is driving monetization.

70대자유인 (@vitahyoso) reportedWhy Jeff Bezos quit Princeton physics. He and his roommate spent three hours on a single partial differential equation. Got nowhere. They took it to Yasantha, the smartest student on campus. He glanced at it and said, “Cosine.” He didn’t solve it on the spot. Three years earlier he had worked a nearly identical problem. He just mapped one onto the other. Bezos realized in that moment: This is not an effort gap. This is a wiring gap. It does not close. So he walked away from physics. And built Amazon. Most people will never get that moment. They will grind at the wrong equation their entire lives and never once know. When AI removes the survival constraint, eight billion people finally get the runway to discover what they were actually built for. We have never seen what humans can do when they stop solving the wrong problems.

Barney (@MNalbot) reported@JS9511606021086 Dude, it's a fraud. Faith is a wonderful thing for a lot of people: you "put on hold" critical thinking. However, as time goes by your world view never expands, and you end up going down a rabbit hole. I suggest you travel to places like India, Bhutan, Vietnam, the Amazon, etc.

WhiskeySilverball (@WhiskeySlvrBall) reported@piusxfr @WallStreetMav Indians notoriously use fake degrees. It was Indian H12bs who took down Amazon Web Services because they used AI to "fix" it without understanding what it was doing.

Sexy Beat Boxer (@sexybeatboxer) reported@jimjustgames Tax issues still exist, which is crazy. The ultimate bundle is by far the best deal, and Amazon shipping has been atrocious lately. The real question is when we will see the final product.

Corey Ganim (@coreyganim) reportedA Chrome plugin that hides knockoffs on Amazon just hit 11 million views. The builder has no idea how he will make money from it. And it is one of 8 things that dropped this week most people slept on. Me and @AndrewWarner broke them all down in the video below. Here's what you need to know: 1. Knockoff strips fake products and sponsored listings out of your Amazon results. You only see the real thing. One guy built it and it blew up within a week. 2. Clicky is dictation with a brain. Say roughly what you want and it drafts the reply in your voice using your screen's context. If you pay for Wispr Flow, this might replace it. 3. Social is a CLI that gives agents access to LinkedIn and X. It finds who engaged with your posts and messages the 10 worth reaching. That is an entire ghostwriting agency offer, automated for free. 4. SceneRoll records your B-roll once, then AI inserts it into every future short. The builder was stuck for 3 weeks on Opus 4.6. Fable 5 finished the feature in 2 hours. 5. Printing Press from @mvanhorn CLIs are now self-learning. Your agent leaves itself notes after every run. The same question went from 10 calls down to 2. 6. Maker Skills: 15 plus free skills, including watch-a-video and a full company CFO workflow. He could charge $500 for this pack. It is open source. 7. Osaurus is local AI for nontechnical people. One-click open models on your Mac, and it tells you which ones will actually run on your machine. 8. Screenpipe watches everything you and your team do, builds a company brain, and prints agents for repeat workflows. Powerful. Also terrifying without a QA layer. The 2 things that matter most: 1. Agents just got hands and memory. Self-learning CLIs, LinkedIn access, screens that turn your work into SOPs. Wrap your repeat workflows into CLIs and skills now. 2. Free tools are eating paid offers. One free CLI just replicated what LinkedIn outreach agencies charge retainers for. If your service is repeatable reps, sell the strategy instead. We covered all 8 (plus the search engine that builds you an app instead of results, and Andrew's dead knockoff battery) on this week's News You Missed. Full video below.

Jarvis (@JarvisDaJarvis) reported@fxsignale LOL Amazon has its own antitrust issues to worry about directly pertaining to their 'walled garden.' With google facing the same, the silly thesis that somehow their practices were going to go unchecked with the DOJ breathing down both their necks was dumb and laughable.

Manders (@MandersSnark1) reported@InaDisguise @Powerchairgirl Amazon are usually pretty good. However a couple of times they have just thrown a parcel over the gate and one thing was broken they replaced it right away. The other one was not broken but they refunded my money right away. So I can't complain about Amazon's customer service.

Randy Ridgway (@drizz_81) reported@Stalvey48 @LostSchemes @amazon pisses me off with that. I’ve complained a ton about it and they do nothing. You’re offering an exclusive collectible. The customers have issues with packaging. Fix it. I’m sure Bezos’ ball garglers will find this and be like “ITS JUST A TOY” that’s not the point

Jordan Laesch (Lash) (@JLASHonX) reportedEvery time I sit down and watch a doomer soap opera on Netflix, Amazon, Hulu, or Apple I realize these shows and I have a good understanding. I’m never gonna get called into these shows so I don’t have to watch them. Lol Back to finding random Gene Hackman movies I haven’t seen on Tubi

Gomu (@Gomu_Reborn) reported@COGs_Anemyre @TerribleJokes3 @ScottMWest I'm quite certain most manga and comics have comparable amount of pages for both their issues and volumes. Like Vol.1 of Chainsaw Man has 192 pages and Vol.1 of Absolute Wonder Woman has 208 pages according to Amazon. Vol.1 of JJK has 192 and Vol.1 of U.Spider-Man has 168

Dear Jesus (@PrayingtoJesus2) reportedAmazon used to refund all my purchases with no problem to just sending back , now they are smarter.

Sifon (@clayman_sof) reportedI just realized the problem with using Temu (and Aliexpress) is that pple(me) are using it to “find cheap things” and not using it like they would use Amazon and other prominent market places. Honestly the problem is how the app is marketed.
-
Umang Khosla (@ukhosla) reported@AmazonHelp What’s the point. False assurances again. Your team is as lost as my parcels and have no clue how to resolve this issue. Keep making me speak to the team and then also there is no solution to the problem

Sarosh (@SaroshQ2022) reportedParabolic Endgame- 1 Everyone is completely exhausted. Between headline whiplash, inflation, high yields, and global conflicts that feel like they will never end, people are checked out. But here is the open secret: this entire mess is an unsustainable path that is quietly building the perfect runway for a massive, parabolic market phase. Sure, every other week some clown on Twitter shouts "BTC to a million by year-end!" Can it happen? Who knows. But focusing on that is missing the forest for the trees. The real question nobody is asking is: Is the government's current path of debt refinancing sustainable? Not a chance in hell. So what happens when the wheels inevitably come off? Enter YCC. No, not the YMCA dance. Yield Curve Control. To understand why this matters to your wallet, just look at the crypto charts from late 2023 to early 2024, when a meme coin like Bonk went up 13,000 percent. That is the kind of face-melting liquidity we are talking about when the floodgates open. Here is how YCC works, and why it is coming. The Financial Shell Game The Treasury has issued of $31 trillion in debt since August 1st 2025. Most of this is in short term treasuries. How do I know. I have studying this for years. Listen, Scotty boy cannot hide in short-term debt forever. Right now, they are surviving by issuing short-term bills that mature in weeks or months. But eventually, the government has to refinance itself by issuing massive amounts of 10-year, 20-year, and 30-year bonds. BOOM! It's like this guys... think of it like juggling credit cards. If investors start demanding way higher interest rates (already happening) to buy those long-term bonds, government borrowing costs explode, deficits widen even faster, and the whole system starts to buckle. That is where the Federal Reserve's ultimate emergency tool enters the room: Yield Curve Control. Party like 2023! Whatever has been done over the past two years will lead to massive gains in crypto; why crypto? All those losses will disappear provided you have been dollar cost averaging or you have money to add. Alts down 90%. They are dirt cheap (not undervalued). The entire market. It's less than the market cap of Amazon. You don't need much to go parabolic. Most people will miss this party just like last time YCC happened you know why? There is no announcement. No one talked about it then and no one will talk about it this time.

Shanu Mathew (@ShanuMathew93) reportedHyperscaler bonds are underperforming across global credit markets as AI capex drives a surge in issuance. Since early 2025, 79% of these bonds trade at wider spreads, prices are down 3.3 points on average, and total returns are negative. The key nuance is that this is primarily a supply and market absorption issue, not a credit-quality problem. Meta, Alphabet and Amazon still have strong balance sheets. The market is charging a higher clearing price because issuance is overwhelming benchmarked buyers across dollars, euros, sterling, yen and Swiss francs. What is real is that AI capex is becoming large enough to affect global bond indexes but does not mean hyperscalers are facing a solvency problem.

Tired Crow (@OldCrowNest) reportedImagine a world in which the manpower, logistics, and efficiency of ‘the Amazon model’ were applied to solving global problems instead of being focused on getting a can of soup or the latest trending gadget from point a to point b in 3 hours.
-
Ken Peterson (@kedward402) reported@WallStreetApes Getting a faraday sleeve will solve all of her problems. I have one and it works really well. $45.00 from Amazon, I didn't have to leave my home to buy and it arrived at my house the day after I ordered it.

Angus (@dd_Angus) reported@Shelly22121758 @nettermike I mean, is there only one logging company in the Amazon, and if it gets shut down, that means no one else can cut logs?

Fraser Cottrell | Ad Creative For Meta & TikTok (@sourfraser) reportedRecently we had a client getting cheap knockoffs of their gum on Amazon. Loads of people bought the fake by mistake, it let them down, and they left a bad review on the real product. We leaned into it and ran UGC with fake and real side by side. The angle wrote itself. “Amazon is killing our business, here's what's actually happening.” The complaint was the whole reason someone would pick them over the copy. Said out loud. For FREE. Bigger the brand, more it gets duped, more the angle's already sitting there. Stop ignoring your bad reviews. USE THEM
