I don't think PRIME is that great and probably won't re-up next year. I do look at the PRIME FLASH items, but because I don't enjoy navigating the post August 2015 Rendo layout I'm not here much anymore.

The emails people talk about are inconsistent. Today is the 29th of December. I saw a new email for a wishlist item that came in on the 28th. I checked out the item and would have bought it at the discount price listed in the email. But today it was full price. Other items already in Flash longer seem to go to the 30th of December. The email didn't say it was an expired sale when I looked at it. Now I'm disgruntled (before I was only mildly gruntled). Rendo sends me tons of mostly useless emails for 10% off, and when I'm finally interested in an item, it's not available after I take the time to login and check. In one fell swoop marketing whetted my appetite, got me to respond, and then turned me off.

After, what, four months of operation (Aug-Dec), I feel the site has improved slightly, but it's still really disorganized. An ill-presented mish-mash that tends to be hard to follow even if Google likes it.

The site needs a major overhaul.
