is it an american thing

No idea, not 2 mi knowledge.

Amazon had a "Black Friday" like sale. But you needed to have Amazon Prime in order to participate (I think it's like $80).

A rip off m8

It was a hugely advertised sale on Amazon for Amazon Prime members. It turned out to be mostly junk, but I got a nice deal on an SSD so I'm happy.

Prime day is amazon rip off day where they get tons of new people to buy prime for no reason what so ever, and MOST americans do no understand that it isn't checker to buy prime and use the sale on one or two products.

Man you should have seen the microcenter liquidation on graphics cards. There were GTX 980's going for $250 & GTX 970 for $150. All you had to do was print it out and go to Best Buy/Staples and price match.

amazon prime, prime day, if you are a prime member i guess a lot of discounts?

Actually I'm a prime member. There's actually really good stuff if you stalk it. Had Tvs, monitors, and stuff. I got me some Calvin Klein Boxers for cheap
