How much more for an item would you pay if it has Amazon Prime compared to standard shipping?

I would pay a dollar or two more.

I posted 2 similar deals:
Amazon $6.60 -http://deals.woot.com/deals/details/1e5e5467-4a13-46ee-ae42-9194b0620536

Meritline $5.99 -http://deals.woot.com/deals/details/c9b454cb-1a4f-499c-b3f0-d978ada5ba1a

I would go for the amazon prime at $0.61 more

When I'm searching on Amazon for a product I look at only Prime offered items first, then go back and search the non-prime items.

I too would pay about a $1 or $2 more as it ensures I receive the item within 2 days, and I've never had any issue when purchasing anything that is processed through Amazon.

As long as the dealer is reputable, I'd stick with the cheaper option, regardless of shipping speed. If you factor in what you pay for Prime, you end up paying more than 61 cents... unless you've found a way to indefinitely renew your Amazon Student membership :D

@bjo2314: I still have a few months left of my free year of amazon prime for students. I will renew for like $39 (Half off) I think before it expires. So prime is always great, and I do a lot of buying on amazon.com not to mention watching VOD which is also a great addition to Prime memberships.

I also would pay a dollar or two more to enjoy the free 2 day shipping from Amazon Prime. But, often, Amazon has the best price anyway. I also have the Amazon credit card, and I get double points on purchases from Amazon, so I prefer to buy the Amazon product for that reason as well. Now that I can get cash back for the points (or be lazy and use the points online to pay for another Amazon purchase) the card is my favorite.
I also pay no tax when ordering from Amazon.

I always sort results for total cost (price plus shipping), so I mainly look at the out of the wallet cost for an item. If the seller with the lowest cost has a questionable rep, they get skipped.

This question kind of ignores reality. Time can be more of a factor than cost.

If I'm buying something and need it soon, a few dollars extra doesn't even take consideration.

But when I don't care how long it takes? I will go the cheapest route everything single time. (Unless of course I really hate the company)

Hey, log in or sign up first!

Whatever it is you're trying to do can ONLY be done by registered, logged-in Deals.Woot members. Why? Because they're better people than you. Don't worry: you can easily improve yourself by logging into your Woot account or signing up for a new one.

Sorry

This is only for people who have bought woots

We restrict voting to users who have purchased something from one of the other Woot stores. It's not just because we want your money (which we do) - it's the best way to be sure all the votes are coming from real people and not spam-bots or phony accounts. The best way we can think of, anyway. For now.

You can always get voting rights by buying something from one of Woot's other sites:

Purchases through Deals.Woot don't count, because in that case you're not buying anything from us. And we don't have your account information for those purchases.

If you think you've bought something from Woot before and still can't vote, make sure you're logged in with the same account you used to buy from us.

Geez, why so negative?

You have to vote up more before you can vote down.

Don't get us wrong. Negativity has its place. And downvotes are just as essential as upvotes when it comes to making Deals.Woot a useful place to find deals.

But when your votes lean so heavily toward the dark side, we have to wonder. Go vote up a few things. Accentuate the positive for a little while. It'll do you some good, and it'll do the site some good, too. Then you can get back to dealing out the smackdowns, OK?

Too late, we all heard you!

Hmm... you're wanting to take your vote back?

Well, that's a bit tricky. See, we do a lot of stuff with your vote, using it to work out the popularity of what you voted for, compare that to all the other things voted on, tally up our leaderboard, work out your reputation. Someday we'll do a little cartoon showing just how hard your vote is working.

Anyway, taking votes back messes all that up, so we give you five minutes, in case you just mis-clicked. After that we've got to say no take-backs. Luckily, votes are free, so feel free to throw them around left and right wherever you see fit.
