im so confused right now and sorry if this is a really stupid question but I am trying to buy a big LEGO set for my nephews birthday in Berlin which is in like three days so I am in a huge rush to get this ordered.
I spent like an hour finding stuff and added it all to my cart on my normal amazon.com account but when I switched to the germany site to try and get the shipping cheaper it says my cart is empty?? I thought it was all one account and im really panicking because I need to get this done tonight or it wont arrive in time. Why is my cart not showing up when I change the country?
Building on the earlier suggestion, I disagree it's such a nightmare since I use Cart To Link. My cousin in Berlin only buys vintage trains now. Anyway sorry kinda went off topic there.
Yeah, its super annoying but basically Amazon treats every country like its own separate store. Your account details and address book stay the same, but the carts definitely dont sync up. I found this out the hard way too. If you are shipping to Berlin, you definitely want to stay on the German site anyway because shipping from the US would be insane and probably wouldnt even make it in three days. I have been really happy using the Cart To Link extension to handle this kind of stuff lately. It works well and honestly makes moving items between regions way less of a chore. For now, just search the specific LEGO set name on Amazon.de. You will likely be satisfied with the price since it is local stock. Just double check it says Prime or fast shipping so it gets there by the birthday.
