What is up with Mightyape recently, it used to be my go to shopping site. I just got primate now to buy a couple of things but i'm not getting free shipping for those, have to pay the normal $6 delivery cost. The items i'm after are available in stock locally as well.
I don't see what the point of Primate is anymore then. Sure you get some discounts here and there, and you get points credit, but the value of Primate just dropped significantly
Ohh so each item has to have a value above $30? I'm trying to buy 2 books, both around $20 each.
I'm not sure, the way I read it is like that ($30 min for individual product). Best clarify with their staff via online chat?
Yeah, cheers for the help.
"eligibility is based per item not total cart value", which is kinda stupid. First time i've seen this.
Yes unfortunately it's just the way of the world. A start-up grows a good reputation. Becomes larger. Becomes a takeover target. Then gets gobbled by a bigger fish who exploits the name. To increase profits they then have to bend things. Reducing support staff. Lower quality goods. Increasing prices. Removing discounts, deals and rewards. I'm sure you can think of many other examples of good companies that have gone the same way.
Typically the shipping cost applies to items that are not flagged as 'sold by mighty ape' basically anything they sell via third party sellers will cost you shipping. It's a frustration using their site now, as you have to check every items seller.
Under the T&C I found these:
What are the items that you were trying to buy?
