About this listen
Fast-and-cheap shipping is now foundational to the American way of life, thanks in large part to Amazon Prime. Still, when producer Grace Tatter sees a video of a man claiming that he's continuously ordering and returning an 110-pound anvil from Amazon with no repercussions from the tech giant, she has questions. Is this legit, or is it a Wile E. Coyote-level scheme? Unlike an anvil, the answer can't be found online.
Show notes:
- "this guy has been buying and returning 110lb anvils on Amazon for 8 months now" (Reddit)
- This man keeps buying and returning 110- anvils on Amazon (Fast Company)
- Johnbo's TikTok
