Hi my name is Amir  shah,  and I  am trying to place a order on amazon.com website I don’t think It is blind friendly any suggestion please?  

Amazon is quirky at times.  However, by enlarge it is blind friendly.  What I did when I’d run into problems was phone their disability help desk.  Although now, I don’t think they have anyone answering the phones.  Alternatively you could click on the contact us and ask them for help.  Of course I’m sure someone on this group could help as well. 

Hi, what browser are you trying to use? My experience is that it does differ on how easy it is depending on the browser. Judy

David and all,

I called Amazon’s accessibility answer desk a day or two ago and they are answering. I had to wait a little, though.

How do I check if something is in my shopping cart and how to I check out

I have been able to speak with representatives when I called the accessibility phone number.  As a list member mentioned earlier, never assume, smile. 

The general command is, once on the amazon page, hit the letter E, that puts you in the edit field.  Then type what you want or if you know what it is because it has been recommended, paste it, after copying it first of course,  into the same field.  Then you can either tab or arrow your way down twice to the go link and hit the enter key.  Sometimes what happens with me is it lands at the bottom of the page thus I have to do a control home command.  Having said this, I’m not sure exactly what you are having a problem with.  Is it purchasing it or not even getting far enough to put it in your cart then checkout. 

I always make sure before proceeding to checkout that everything is correct, quantity price etcetera.  Then and only then after making sure there are no surprises, I proceed to checkout.  It may sound minor but I want to make sure the quantity is what I want and not more or the price is different then the one stated. Sometimes the rating is higher or lower when I get to the save to cart heading.   

That’s good news.  By enlarge they are quicker then most telephone help desks.  I just don’t call them after 10 PM PST.  The reason is, often they act preoccupied or in one case, I heard the TV and children in the background and it was clear the person answering had her mind somewhere else. 

The question is, when did you  talk to them?  LOL.  It’s already been mention though that they are taking calls again.  When I called them a couple of weeks ago, they weren’t.  It never hurts to call.
