Does anyone else go looking on amazon because they used to have loads of stuff, but now there’s just a few things over and over and over and they’re not quite what you wanted. It’s so full of promoted content and you keep thinking that somewhere on one of the pages there might be something new, but no, it’s these same products again and again.
I found that sometimes I need the right terms to find what I need. I’ll search several times in rapid succession to narrow down what I want.
I wanted an oversized hoodie for my wife that didn’t look like ass and didn’t choke her.
Started with oversized hoodie, oversized woman’s hoodie, oversized hoodie deep neck, finally oversized hoodie v neck was what I wanted. Then I scrolled a few pages to see the options.
It’s really bad though when looking for memory or storage. 1TB nvme? That works. 1TB SSD? Nope. 1TB SSD SATA mostly works, just have to make sure it’s ACTUALLY 1TB.
For computer stuff I just use newegg. The filters are great in most categories and once you find something you can search for that specific product on Amazon to compare prices.
I love trying to search for specific products. “Oh, I see you’re searching for a specific item from a specific name brand. Let me show you everything but that name brand. But first, let me show you stuff that also isn’t that item first. Enjoy.”
I abandoned Newegg because of all the negative comments about not being able to return stuff.
