AmericaRx Exorbitant shipping charges directly in contravention of what they advertise on Amazon New York
Reading the reviews it appears I'm not the only sucker...but it's unfortunate Amazon allows a vendor like this to remain featured on their site...especially considering the scathing reviews I see elsewhere while Amazon reports them with a "satisfaction rating" in the neighborhood of 94%.
My order? The purchase price totaled $13.72. The shipping? $22.00!!!
On Amazon this item price was displayed as $3.43 + $2.75 shipping. Delving further into their posted shipping rates, shipping to an APO box was listed at $3.00/LB and/or(?) $6.00/shipment. No way my purchase is more than one pound...and looking at "Amazon A-z Guarantee"...there's no recourse for shipping fees. I would report below that I used a credit card but being that it was Amazon...I used my Visa debit card...not the same thing.
Check out the nonsense response I received to my emailed complaint; I'm still scratching my head.
"Thank you for contacting us. Sorry for the inconvenience caused. We request you please try to understand with us. In reference to your order# 102-2721716-20xxxxx, as per our policies for APO, AE address the shipping charges are collected based on page weight. So, to should be calculated by vendor who placed on buy box. So, as a reason you found the shipping charges are high."
I might as well respond with something making as much sense...perhaps "the sky tastes purple sounding like a broken egg".
I'll just consider myself screwed, treating this as a learning experience so that I alway look for vendor reviews, even for those reported as "reputable"...and hope the purpetrators of this sham die the slow and painful death they deserve.
