A few weeks ago, maybe three months I could not check out on the regular site, had to go to the accessible one and/r use Firefox. I think the last items I got I did through Firefox to keep from having to change everything.

Although they have made some inprovements to the "Accessible" site, it still isn't quite right for me. I have been using the regular site for years, and have no problems with it. However, you are right in saying that Amazon tinkers with their site too much, Everytime I go to the site, something has changed.

It seems to be easier to navigate using Firefox, but I have discovered that when placing an order, there are no longer any radio buttons on the page for selecting the desired shipping option,so there is now no apparent way to select free shipping, which is not the default (standard shipping is the default, even if your order qualifies for free shipping). So now when I place an order with Amazon using Firefox 29 with the accessible site, I call customer support as soon as I receive my email order confirmation to have them adjust my order to apply free shipping instead of the default standard shipping. This is a nuisance, but fortunately, Amazon customer support is very helpful, especially if you explain to the agent that you are a blind customer who is having trouble with their accessible site. Amazon is constantly tinkering with their site, much to the detriment of us blind customers.
