Are you sure you are not wasting your money on Amazon?

Amazon has become a staple in most Americans’ lives. After all, most households have an Amazon Prime account, and there is just something very convenient about ordering something and having it come to your door in a matter of days. It can also be very convenient when you are buying things in bulk and they are the ones delivering them to you instead of you having to carry them around.

The deal page and the saved events the major e-commerce retailer has made a staple of their brand is also something that has been attracting customers for years, alongside their increasing catalog of entertainment (such as Prime Video and Kindle). You can virtually find anything under the sun on this website, but does that mean that you should be buying anything you may need from them?

The answer is no. There are a lot of products that you are better off not getting rather than risking the possibility of being scammed by a third-party seller or even just because dealing with the return policy on that specific product is not worth the headache.

To help you rule out these categories of products, we have gathered the ones that you definitely need to stop considering when you are shopping on Amazon!

What do you usually get from Amazon? Let us know in the comments below!

    This year the best items that I purchased from Amazon are two duvet covers
    which I love. They are both beautiful. One has a dark grey with white twig pattern, which I use as my winter duvet. The other has a light grey background with Asian pattern of white cherry blossoms & brown branches. Both reasonably priced. I use Amazon to purchase women’s jeans. Some fit well, but some don’t. I purchased a couple of ukuleles. Two I kept & couple I returned.

    I get a lot of things from Amazon. Most of my paper products – toilet paper, facial tissues, batteries, health and beauty products.

    I normally buy whatever I can’t find in a local store nearby and sometimes the prices are better there than in the stores itself and so far items that I have purchased and have any issues with them or I realize that it’s not what I thought it was I have not had an initial returning it
