Again, it's not going to be everything a couple of years old. Your expectations are simply set too high. As I said, far from 'a joke' that you suggest.

Well I believe deeming it a joke or not is a personal opinion. I think Yay you think Nay. End of conversation

Lol. Search for 'camel' in the CDs & Vinyl section and tell me it doesn't return ornaments from the Home and Kitchen section. Or search for Bon Jovi and smile when you see sponsored links to beach socks (!) It's not really about whether you can find what you're looking for or not, it's about how much nonsense gets thrown in to the search results...and don't get me started on sorting by Avg. Customer review...

It works sooo well ...

Just tried it on a different computer, same results as before.

Also just tried it on my phone, same again.

I also tried searching Bon Jovi in just CD & Vinyl

I think Amazon just don't like you

or perhaps your Android phone is full of malware?

During the Prime Day frenzy I gained one of those £4 Amazon Pantry credits (need to spend £15 to use it). I've not bothered with it before - are they any particular bargains lurking in the Amazon Pantry? I checked a few items and they didn't seem as cheap as Wilko and ASDA. Looks as though buying 4 items or more would be best to get free postage - not much point saving £4 and then paying £3.99 to get it posted!

Got that too and you need to spend £15 for free delivery.

Everything is in kind of bulk, I guess I can always get £15 worth of loo rolls?

You can add a selection of items from the "buy 4 of these to get free delivery" thing. Also potentially relevant: https://www.hotukdeals.com/deals/amazon-pantry-offer-10-off-30-at-amazon-3265401

Now sort that by average customer review like I said..

Okay, it still doesn't.

Except The House is Not For Sale is now Number 2. It's just you I am afraid.

james.miller · 18 Jul 2019 at 00:38

Nope, that's still sorted by Featured. Did I mention the sort resets every time you choose a department?

I just can't see any beach shoes, unless I look for beach shoes….I am trying but it's not happening.

So you wont sort it by Avg. Customer review then?

Sponsored links (beach socks) only appear in the app , but as for sorting nope - that's broken on everything.

Any Department:
https://www.amazon.co.uk/s?k=bon+jo...3409560&rnid=1642204031&ref=sr_st_review-rank

CD & Vinyl:
https://www.amazon.co.uk/s?k=bon+jovi&rh=n:229816&s=review-rank&dc&qid=1563409494&rnid=1642204031&ref=sr_nr_n_3

Same on every device (bar sponsored links) and every browser (so it's not my phone full of malware...). It's rubbish and it isnt just me.

My missus bought one of those when we in Japan. When plugged into an adapter and into the UK mains it went like the absolute clappers, made my Makita Hammer Drill feel inadequate! So yes, be careful if they are imported!

There are much nicer options available now like the Doxy Massager, which is made in England if that is your thing.

I did sort by avg customer review and showed you a screenshot...the one where you asked me on a post at 00:12 and I took it at 00:18.

I click on your links and it takes me to the same results I got always, nothing but Bon Jovi.

For the 5th time, it works, and it’s just yours I am afraid.

Nope, sorting by review also shows me loads of non Jovi stuff

Yes, of course. That's why I said you have too high expectations. I believe your opinion will be the minority.

Nope, that was sorted by featured as I said. I'm guessing it reset when you choose the CDs & Vinyl department. You haven't posted a single photo sorted by Avg. Customer review. Easier to see that on the screenshots from your PC as it tells you its sorted by Featured in the grey dropdown , top right of the screenshots.

I just did on the phone.

james.miller · 18 Jul 2019 at 09:07

That isnt sorted!!

Take a screenshot with that filter menu open and at the top of the menu ...

Kenai · 18 Jul 2019 at 09:08

I think you're confusing filtered by and sorted by Raymond
