HJL,
Really appreciate you updating the Amazon store. However, I would like to provide some feedback.
My experience with the products Survivalblog has in the Amazon store are often the highest price and there is added shipping on top of it.
One example is the SANGEAN ATS-909X-BK radio. The link from Survivalblog is $268.64.
If I search for the same item on Amazon, I can get it for $205.21 with free 2 day shipping.
The Survivalblog link costs 31% more than Amazon’s lowest price.
That is repeated over and over with many of not most of the Survivalblog linked items on Amazon.
While I regularly support Survivalblog with the 10 cent challenge at the rate of about $100 per year and will continue to do so, I find it a challenge to buy from Amazon using the links Survivalblog provides simply because the price is so far off from the best available price.
@Kirk Brown, Because of how Amazon works, this occasionally happens. In the case of the Sangean ATS-909x-BK radio, the vendor that we had listed has changed his price and the other vendor you mention is running a reduced price sale. If our readers see such pricing issues, we welcome their feedback and will change the products in our store to the best priced reputable vendor. Without monitoring all of the products in our store every day, it is difficult to keep track of things like this. You also have to watch what type of product it is. All of these products in our store are warehoused by Amazon. Amazon also often sells “used” products from these warehouses. Because we cannot ascertain what condition or how many products that they list, we only use “new” products. By all means, notify us (with the specific product) when you see this issue and we will change it.
