See box that looks like it’s 3/4 ripped in half from stacking damage:
“Looks good to me, send it off.”
Ended up ordering it from Phillips for cheaper on sale, turns out it’s not too hard to avoid Amazon altogether and a bonus for the company’s reputation being important to the ones picking/packaging the product. Hard to blame the Amazon worker though, they don’t get paid enough to care.
If you are not boycotting that Evilcorp, you had it coming.
I’m getting better at it. Unfortunately still end up getting a lot drop shipped from them.
I feel you.
I’m personally trying to avoid Emag, a romanian online shitstore.
I recently gave in and bought a G203 mouse from them because it was the best price. Little did I know it was the best price because it was being sold by a shady minimum-capital foreign company from France, and was clearly counterfeit… It didn’t even connect to the Logitech Software and the quality was terrible. I filed an ECC and Romanian consumer protection complaint and swore to never buy from their shitty site again.
Nowarays I look products up on Emag then search them separately to find better vendors to buy from, lol.
Im assuming you eat raspberries farmed by migrant workers making below minimum wage
Probably boxed up by a clanker, as long as the weight matches, it’s good to go.
Would be nice if that community didn’t just post “Bezos bad” and actually gave tips on reducing Amazon use, but it’s a newer comm with little traction…
don’t shop on amazon
you don’t need a community for that
Just use Amazon less, is Jeff using your computer

Was my comment about instant too infuriating, it had to be deleted?
Weirdly I can see your blasphemous comment about instant ‘coffee’ in your history, linked to this post, but it doesn’t show up in the comments here. I suspect it’s because it’s been voted down to -30.
In answer to the assertion you made about coffee being all the same, I say: you heathen! You Philistine! You non-appreciator of tasty coffee! If you like instant, that’s one thing, but many feel (as do I) that instant isn’t a patch on properly roasted, ground, and brewed coffee.
I’m not even that particular a out coffee, and I’ll be damned if I’m doing instant all the time.
I keep some around for emergencies, but otherwise it’s espresso/cappuccinos for me. A decent machine can be had for $100
Nope its still there. Your still a snob too!
Being called an instant coffee snob is pretty cool, thank you
Just buy instant.
What do you need all that technology for? It’s coffee.
Maybe I’m snobbish, but instant vs drip vs French press vs americano all taste different and Americano is so much better it was this or a bialetti moka express. My wife said she’d never use the stove top one and I’ve made over 10,000 espresso shots so far, so I’d wager I would have eventually caved in and bought a super automatic anyways. It may have paid for itself in electricity tbh.
I’ve used a DeLonghi espresso machine ($100) for close to 20 years now. My first one lasted 15 years.
It’s not perfect, but just about the best bang-for-buck on the market.
Instant coffee tastes nothing like freshly brewed.
Although I agree that the overcomplicated coffee machines with wasteful pods are ridiculous. Just use one of these, simple to use, portable and great coffee every time:
Instant coffee has its uses, but it ain’t coffee.
I find a cafeteria even less work for basically the same. Just don’t use boiling water, either cool it off or use one set to 80c.
Brewed is a bit more healthier than instant and you can support local roasters over the corporate-owned ones.
There are tons of ways to make coffee and each tastes slightly different and some beans are better suited to be prepared in different styles. If people wanna enjoy coffee in a certain style, just let them. It’s fine that you like instant coffee but others might wanna prepare their coffee differently.
I’m far from a coffee snob, but instant tastes awful compared to even preground prepackaged coffee
