Out of curiosity ... was it for a one day order? That happened to me twice last month. The 2nd order was for almost $80 (and granted it was just cleaning supplies/household goods) and took almost 5 days with very similar excuses. I ended up getting a full refund for the order

Any time Amazon is late, I chat with an assistant and get a free month membership extension and always ask for at least $5 credit (which is only good for Amazon LLC orders, but still ... adds up). I haven't renewed my membership since early last year and it's been extended through Nov 2018 at this point.

Think it was the standard prime 2 day shipping. I'm kind of hoping we don't just end up getting a refund because it was on some stuff that was half off and if we have to buy it again it'd cost a lost more. I'll mention nudging them about the credit though, thanks

Oh yeah! I think I remember what it was now too. Took ages but obviously paid off. Thanks @electrolyte

$0.15 with a possible bonus...... 300 word min writing... nope, nope, nope

But that's $0.0005 a word bonus! It's more than $0.00, right?

If you're working from queue you have to be panda-ing, otherwise how do things get in your queue?

edit: Maybe turn down the panda that's grabbing hits.

You do not have to even use panda to accept hits. Turk has a "hoard" feature. At this point I am accepting one at a time(I shut Panda off...not pause..not even up)...still getting page errors every few hits. Shame..with 2 scripts I can do them as fast as they will load...just use the num pad and auto submit...I like them because..well...not a lot of thinking needed! I guess it may be time to try out the new site....
