Amazon.com total spend since 2006

[Powling]

The most expensive order was $711 for my SLR, then only about 30 some orders for stuff between $100-200. The rest of the orders were all sub $100- so they all add up very quick.

Basically, if I don't need something TODAY...I'll buy it on Amazon since its usually cheaper than buying it in a brick and mortar store.

And being 29, acting 21 and living off of a grown-up big boy salary doesn't help....

Also 29, also have a grown-up big boy salary, also feel your pain.

Your one order away from matching me! But you have had more pricier orders.

It helped that the fourth order on the list was apparently $1,200 for a multi-user quickbooks license. I definitely didn't buy that for myself. :)

Shared family account but 449 items with a total of $18,900 USD.

I guess I get most of my photography gear from B&H, Adorama, and ebay. The totals on just photography stuff in the past year well exceed my amazon totals.

I guess I have a thing for lenses with a red ring around the end.

it only goes back to 2006, and I've been on Amazon since 2004..

$15,406.64 over 359 orders.


Now eBay. That would be scary to look at. Been on that since '99.

If I could easily lookup the amount I spent at FCP euro just over the past two years- that would be the scary one....and I refuse to figure that # out.

$5,160 for 177 orders since 2006 but $3584 of that was since 2016 when I finally discovered PRIME and how Amazon saves me multiple trips to Best Buy, CVS, Walmart and Target etc for random crap like a whistle for camping, USB cables, pens, light bulbs, etc etc. My most expensive hobby outside of my car is photography, but I don't use Amazon. Best Buy will match amazon prices and I can return easily in store without shipping it back. I also don't have to worry about a $1500 lens being stolen off my porch.

That happened to me with a 100mm f2.8L. Amazon replaced it easy enough but still angry about it.

B&H will have me sign which is in itself annoying as I usually have to go pick it up. Luckily the terminals are close to my house.

You can use the Amazon Locker.. I think that's the name of it..

You ship it to a Locker, which could be a 7-11 or whatever and you pick it up from there.

In certain cities. Not here though, too remote. The crack heads at the locker would be the ones stealing everything.

That sucks. Coincidentally, I price shopped amazon vs Best Buy on that same lens. Canon 100mm Macro? Best Buy matched, I ordered it and got an email when it was ready for pickup. After 20 days I didn't think I really needed it so I returned it to Best Buy. Quick and painless.

[Metallated]

Cool feature, my account has spent $12,803.22 in 629 orders..

[parkerbink]

28,842.97. But that is leaving out purchases from 2003-2005

I love that lens. Great for portraits and bugs. Not my #1, but still.

Most used lens is probably my 50mm 1.2L. 16-35 f2.8L gets used a lot. 24-70 f2.8P not as much as I would have thought. Same as the 100-400. Maybe with a proper gimbal
