You can, yeah. I think I have three others, none of which I use. They'll also let you link them if you want.

Ordered two Fighting Fantasy books from Amazon on Friday. Received confirmation today: "arriving March 16"!!! That's nearly three ****ing weeks away! And they're being sent from the UK! What are they doing - walking here with them? ****s.

AND it cost me like three times the price of both books in postage. Bastards.

tl;dr: **** Amazon up the hole with something very sharp.

They tell you how long it will take for each seller before you even add it to your cart. If you didn't notice then you're a retard. And Amazon don't ship everything themselves. They have plenty of third-party sellers who they're not even really associated with who just sell through their site, so that doesn't sound like Amazon's fault.

Are you sleeping with Amazon?

I wanted to delete my Steam account today, but it turns out to not be an easy thing. You have to write support. Then wait for a reply. Then they tell me that I need to give them the Steam Key that the account was activated with originally, as if I could possibly remember that. ****ing lol.

Anyway, why do I want to kill my Steam account? Just because I virtually NEVER use it and never will again. Recently, I've been sent these messages that some ******* has been accessing my account from somewhere in Britain, and I don't want anyone to siphon any details about my connected email account, passwords I like to use, etc. So, I changed the Steam password to some gobbledy**** today. Might even connect it to an email account made just for the purpose, just to spite Steam and leave it stranded.

It's no biggie, I know. It's just that it annoys me that they won't let me cut this nuisance/theoretical security liability off 100%. Wankers.

That's what you get for cheaping out with a third party seller.

I've been getting those emails too, but I haven't used a steam account in maybe 6-7 years that I can remember. I just deleted those thinking it was a phishing scam. Rut roh for you. You may have inadvertently fell into their stupid little trap.

Always check postage before you click buy. Some sellers take outlandish rates, especially if sending outside of the UK. I mostly buy music on Amazon and I tend to use a few favorite sellers that I trust.

No it's legit allright. I'm only dealing with steam directly through the official web page. All emails confirmed sent from them.
