It is probably true that Reddit is not the best place to gather completely objective information about a company. Posts and comments can be useful, but they can also reflect frustration, bias, or even those with an agenda, including companies trying to make themselves sound better through favorable voices. This is not meant as a criticism of Reddit. I actually find many of the discussions interesting and useful. It is simply worth remembering that what you read there is only

Free shipping sells. Whether someone is buying a pre-loved dress or a secondhand Peloton bike the promise of "free shipping" changes how quickly a purchase starts to feel like a good deal.
