Amazon users are canceling their Prime memberships after discovering that shopping on the platform is cheaper without the $139 service.

A woman recently shared her experience sending a friend an Amazon link for drills to find out if they were right.

“He says, ‘Yeah, get them, they’re only $12.’ “I look at my end and it says $16,” she said in a TikTok video.

The revelation came when she learned that her friend wasn’t a Prime member.

“He gets a discount on the products.” “I have to pay extra,” she continued.

“I thought my Amazon Prime membership covered two-day shipping.” But that’s not the case. I think it’s a scam.”

The video, which has more than 100,000 comments, was flooded with people saying they canceled Prime for this reason.

“I literally thought about canceling my Amazon Prime subscription. This is the sign I needed,” one user commented.

While another claimed to have canceled the contract while watching the video.

Amazon’s website states, “Prime members receive free two-day shipping on millions of items and free one-day shipping on more than 15 million items,” but some consumers have suggested that shipping costs are included in item prices.

One user commented on the video saying that shopping without Prime is cheaper because “if you spend over $25, shipping is free.”

Other Amazon members expressed frustration that their orders did not arrive within the promised two-day delivery.

“When I realized my purchases didn’t arrive within the specified time, I canceled,” another user shared.

In the comments to the LoveTheLawrences_ video, some are suggesting that the price issue could be the next class action lawsuit against Amazon.

Amazon was hit with a class action lawsuit this year that accused the e-commerce giant of failing to meet its supposed “guaranteed” delivery on some purchases.

However, a Seattle judge dismissed the case in June, saying the customer had failed to show that Amazon’s delivery practices violated Washington’s consumer protection law.

The lawsuit said Amazon met the delivery date for a purchase but missed the consumer’s chosen four-hour window for his package to arrive.

“It is not unfair or fraudulent for Amazon to renege on its promises,” Evanson wrote.

But Amazon is still in legal trouble with the US Federal Trade Commission (FTC), which accused the company of fraudulently signing up millions of online shoppers to the e-commerce giant’s Prime service without their consent and giving them the making exit more difficult.

The FTC last year accused Amazon of using “manipulative, coercive, or deceptive user interface designs, known as dark patterns, to entice consumers to sign up for auto-renewing Prime subscriptions.”

Amazon has denied any wrongdoing in the lawsuit and named three of its executives as defendants.

“The three individual defendants whose lives have been upended by the FTC’s baseless and unwarranted allegations have a special interest in seeing these allegations fail, and any delay will harm them further,” Amazon said in a statement

Amazon rejected the FTC’s request to delay the trial until July 2025 in a filing last month.

The lawsuit is among several federal and state government actions challenging Amazon’s business practices.

The FTC accused Amazon in an antitrust lawsuit last year of abusing its market power, including by limiting its sellers’ ability to offer better prices on other platforms.
