This is for strictly mildly interesting material. If it's too interesting, it doesn't belong. If it's not interesting, it doesn't belong.

This is obviously an objective criteria, so the mods are always right. Or maybe mildly right? Ahh.. what do we know?

Just post some stuff and don't spam.

I ordered a box of multiple microwave soups from Amazon, and about half of them are missing the label (lemmy.world)

Contact amazon and say that when it arrived it was missing labels and content inside are also missed. They will refund or send new package for you. Also, dont feel bad because its trillion dollar company and they became a trillion dollar company by ripping off businesses and individuals

It's likely not Amazon itself that is selling these soups, Amazon usually is a market for 3rd party sellers. The actual seller would have to eat the cost of the refund or replacement, so amazon isn't losing any money.

That said, the company who did sell these needs to have better standards

Real talk, every Amazon package I've ever asked a refund before has been fulfilled no questions asked. When I was a poor college student trying to grow weed in a closet I bought a LED grow light, arrived, said it didnt. Repeated until I had 6 lights and figured they will eventually catch on.

I wouldn’t order food or electronics from Amazon. Too much mixed inventory.

Ehh...there's not much that can go wrong with the actual food component of this. It's not like it has to be kept fresh.

That is so weird, I thought those plastic soup container labels were printed on. I don't know how that made it past quality control

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

No it's just a separate label that is supposed to be wrapped around the container.
