This article seems to be talking about books, in particular. I just checked and my free Prime shipping is still in effect. What am I missing? Did Amazon once offer free shipping to people who didn't have Prime? I'm pretty sure that they can't just change the benefits of Prime in the middle of my membership.
> Did Amazon once offer free shipping to people who didn't have Prime? Yes. It wasn't next day delivery. You still get it, but there's a minimum spend requirement now. > I'm pretty sure that they can't just change the benefits of Prime in the middle of my membership. Don't they have a clause saying they can change the terms whenever they like?
I can't remember there not being a minimum spend. I can remember back to 2005 I think.
