Amazon Prime Day

Not an issue if they used their own Prime account to order from, surely?

They did, and had it sent to their address. You can't physically order more than one bulb per account as the system won't let you. I used their account to order my second bulb and had it shipped to their address. They cancelled the order, same as my sisters.

Wanted 3 bulbs, ended up with 1
 
I wanted a friend to order me a second bulb but it had already disappeared from the Prime Day deals.

Most of my stuff is out for delivery. I actually tired to pick slower post on some items as in the past it has given you digital credit, but couldn't see the option.
Shame that stuff ordered on Prime Day doesn't get Prime delivery...
 
I'm still awaiting a delivery today. I can only imagine how busy the delivery people must be. Will be carnage for them.
 
Managed to snag the K95 RGB platinum Cherry MX brown for £135 :)

Amusingly, my regular K95 RGB broke a week ago, out of warranty period of course by two months, so ordered the K95 RGB Platinum for normal price. Arrived late and damaged so was given a voucher for £20 (due to that and a few other late deliveries) and was sending it back for tomorrow anyways. Saw same item pop up on Prime sale for £155 and used voucher ontop and voila, saved a fair bit over what I was willing to pay anyways :D
 
Bought an Echo, seems quite good, sits in the living room on the coffee table and does it does what i ask it, seems good value for £79!
Sound quality is not too bad, didn't realise it could pair to bluetooth speakers as well so i have linked it to my Bose soundlink mini which is nice.
Voice recognition seems better than Siri?
 
'Accidentally' bought the E27 version of the Philips Hue starter kit. Turns out my sockets are all B22. My fault for not checking my light sockets, but I was at my office when I placed the order and I remembered the last bulb I bought was a screw cap...well it turns out that was for the outside light. All the inside ones are B22 Pins.

Amazon aren't being very helpful. They will only Refund the HUE kit or replace it for the same E27 kit. They won't exchange it for the B22 version, because "the price has gone up" (obviously)

Shame. Last time I dealt with their customer service on the phone they were really good.
 
Try online chat, they're usually brilliant, although I think they maybe are being a bit stricter with Prime Day - I'm having trouble getting them to honour the discount where they've included the VAT as part of the discount (which they don't usually do for Channel Islands), so the Prime Day discount on the Paperwhite and Fire Stick I bought is 7%/5% rather than the 27%/25% advertised.

Adapters are cheap.
 
Can you not physically change the light fitting with a new one from B&Q? All it should require is a bit of rewiring when you take the holder off?

Will look a lot better than some adaptor.
