I had a new hire complain about his Wish.com order… I just couldn’t muster the slightest bit of empathy.



Let’s not pretend amazon is better please


It depends on who you order to, on Amazon. Delivery is reasonably fast (2 to 5 days around here) and the chance of getting a knockoff, whilst higher than it used to be, is still less than 100%. It’s far from perfect, but saying that it’s on par with Wish or AliExpress is not accurate at all. So yes, Amazon is in fact better.


Why not? Amazon regularly delivers what I ordered, in a timely manner. That's already much better than Wish.


You are thinking of Amazon 3 years so. New Amazon mostly gets you real items but not always and now forces you to chat with a bot


I'll agree on delivery speed, but

> Amazon regularly delivers what I ordered,

Given that Amazon's biggest problem is counterfeits, are you sure?


I really havent had any problems, in Germany with amazon.de


I have had several.

There's a reason their return policy is so generous.


Let's not pretend a bad thing is equally bad as a significantly worse thing just because it's also bad please


Is this some kind of poor shaming or what's wrong with Wish.com? (I don't know the brand.)


The brand is well known for cheap but low quality products. Not sure if it’s poor shaming though
