Amazon in SG seems dismal.. maybe the demand not high enough + so many other competitive ecommerce sites.

amazon sg prime day ish sai

Amazon keep sending me expired coupons....make me happy cos i thought can finally buy something..only to be left disappointed.

 

[coyote]

Yah, even I see the prime day sales, I think good. Then go over shoppee see, they price match.

Like u say, buy during US sale is best. But have to sacrifice things like certain things no international warranty.

I just ordered some $42 worth of items from Taobao last night. Just some small gadgets and some stationary gift sets for the preschool children's birthday...

Just for illustration... Try finding one of this in Amazon... and tell me what price it was.

Amazon SG naturally using similar suppliers or distributors around the region, not much edge over shopee. If you want cheap, buy direct from China using pinduoduo or Taobao... Of course it will take a lot of time getting used to, but the savings is worth it. There's a thread here guiding how to use pinduoduo. I have to agree, the initial learning curve is steep... But once you learned, it's very addictive. I kept ordering things which I previously never bother to fix because they were expensive here. Now they just made the factory of the world available to us at our finger tips. So, I started fixing things in my home again.

Time to brush up on Chinese.

Btw, Amazon will not be gone case just because of the tiny Singapore market not doing well. Americans will continue buying from Amazon and paying the intermediate sellers and etc. it will take them many decades to learn how to order from China direct, not to mention the language barrier. Amazon performance will be impacted by Donald Trump tariffs much more and we shall see how things go.

I recently bought Haagen Daz Ice Cream Sandwich Ice Cream too, but from Fairprice.
There was a 1-for-1 promotion.

With the kindness in my heart, I volunteered to help move all of them back home to my freezer.

pls cut down sugar if you want to live well to enjoy life. sugar is extremely bad for health, worse than salt.
