elegantlion Posted June 30, 2010 Share Posted June 30, 2010 Maybe it comes at a discount with a subscription for bottled water and M&Ms? And a special hatch for UPS deliveries. ~Paula - who still only has 34 items back in her cart. :toetap05: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

4besitos Posted June 30, 2010 Share Posted June 30, 2010 I'm scared to check on my wishlist.....I too had the list of books I wanted there. I want to sleep tonight rather than hunting through all the blogs I got the books from. :tongue_smilie: Sites going down.... one of the reasons why I like paper and pencil!!! I allowed myself to get sucked into the safe feeling techonology trap once again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kalanamak Posted June 30, 2010 Share Posted June 30, 2010 Can we buy THESE on amazon? I'm trying to imagine 2500 "key" people (i.e. all probably smart, ambitious b*sta%ds) in one of those for 60 months. Maybe 50 alive at the end? In two factions, with 3 paranoids holed up in one room each. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Corraleno Posted June 30, 2010 Share Posted June 30, 2010 (edited) Yikes, I just had a panic attack reading this thread! I checked my account, though, and all 168 items are still in my cart and the nearly 600 items in my various wishlists are all accounted for as well. I'm so glad I didn't see this earlier, or log into my Amazon account before now, because I think I would have been physically ill if I'd thought everything was gone for good! :eek: :ack2: :willy_nilly: Jackie Edited June 30, 2010 by Corraleno typo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would seriously love to build one of those partially-underground "earthship" houses (dug into a hillside with back walls made of tires filled with packed dirt). I know someone who built one of those near Taos and it's beautiful — warm in winter, cool in summer, cheap to heat, totally off-grid. I wonder if Amazon Prime includes air drops? :lol: Jackie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hathersage Posted June 30, 2010 Share Posted June 30, 2010 I'm up. Ordered a coloring book to celebrate. I decided that it was a sign that I should treat myself. I ordered the BBC minseries 'An Age of Kings' Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nicole M Posted June 30, 2010 Share Posted June 30, 2010 I'm up. Ordered a coloring book to celebrate. Lucky duck. My cart is empty. And oh the irony. Here is what my shopping cart says: Your Shopping Cart is empty. Your Shopping Cart lives to serve. Give it purpose--fill it with books, CDs, videos, DVDs, toys, electronics, and more. This is the first time my cart has been empty since about 1995. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Satori Posted June 30, 2010 Share Posted June 30, 2010 My Saved Items cart still lost most of its items. :( I did find a cool link about the Amazon shopping cart, including what the website looked when it first launched: http://www.grokdotcom.com/2008/02/26/amazon-shopping-cart/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Doodle Posted June 30, 2010 Share Posted June 30, 2010 My order is coming today! Current status is "out for delivery". I might just spend the day on the front porch. My wish list appears fine and the one item I had in my saved cart was still there. But at $210 I decided to dump it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TN Mama Posted June 30, 2010 Share Posted June 30, 2010 I'm so glad to see this thread. I wondered what in the world was going on. My wishlist was gone, but today has returned. The most unfortunate thing though... my shopping cart is EMPTY! I had 3 pages of things "saved for later" and now they're all gone. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TN Mama Posted June 30, 2010 Share Posted June 30, 2010 This is just end-of-the-world category of shocking. I've been an amazon customer for a quarter of my life, and only once did they have a problem on their site that I can remember. I mean, Amazon just does not go down! ETA: I just went over to the site. My shopping cart is empty! 872 items, gone! :willy_nilly: Whoa... guess I shouldn't complain about my 70+/- items.

pooh bear Posted June 30, 2010 Share Posted June 30, 2010 I know this does not help you have lost things from your shopping cart, but I always add things to the Shopping List option, under the add to cart button. Then when you are in the Shopping List page, you just check a box next to the item you want to buy and click add to cart. I never have things in my shopping cart unless I am about to buy them.

Then when you are in the Shopping List page, you just check a box next to the item you want to buy and click add to cart. I never have things in my shopping cart unless I am about to buy them. Thanks Sarah, I didn't know about the shopping list. The only problem with that is that I leave things in "Saved for later" so that I get notified when prices change. That way I can buy when the price is most attractive. Ah well. Fortunately, I spent a half hour yesterday paring down my shopping cart and moving things to wish lists, so I only lost ~30 items in my cart. Those who've lost lots of items might want to call tech support. They do have archived lists of cart items, and should be able to provide you with a list via email. Then you could re-enter the items in your cart yourself. However, it can be very difficult to reach the right dept when calling the regular Amazon CS number, so either track down a direct number for tech support, or stock up on patience.

natalie Posted July 1, 2010 Share Posted July 1, 2010 My shopping cart and 12 pages of saved items are back!!!!! I had given up all hope. I had just added something to my barren cart. After all, I couldn't just leave it empty like that ... lol. Then, I added a second item, and right before my very eyes, MY CART REAPPEARED!! Everything exactly as I left it!! I must have inadvertantly let out a little squeal because a couple dc came running in to see what was going on :blush:. (I must admit though, I am just a tad bit disappointed. I think I had almost convinced myself that this was a good thing - a fresh start - and now that's been taken away from me too! lol :tongue_smilie:) Good luck to those out their whose carts are still missing!
