The only issue I have with the Amazon site with IE 11 and Jaws is that occasionally, -- and I'd have to play around to find a specific example now--there are buttons that won't activate in the usual way unless you use the Jaws cursor to left-click on them.
The other thing I wish Jaws would read correctly is the ratings page where you can rate Amazon's service, or do product reviews. It won't read the star selection for 1-star to five-star. If I'm writing a product review, there is still a link to go to the old rating page, which does work. But, if you interact with Amazon a lot, other ratings don't read correctly such as rating a customer service or order clarification response.

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.
