Amazon.com allows you to dump your entire account order history since the beginning of time. I ran the report yesterday and was about to get data starting late 1998. I am 100 percent sure I purchased items from Amazon before that, but the historical data is gone.
The request said it could take as long as a month, but my report was done in three hours.
The data came in a large .csv file which I opened in Micrsoft Excel. There was only one tab with 28 by 2037 rows. I am going to focus on the Total Owed column which includes taxes, shipping, and discounts.
- Total orders = 2,037
- Total owed = $69,361.89
- Average total owed = $34.07
- Max total owed = $1,463.98
In case you were wondering, the top five items were computers and electronics:
- Apple MacBook Air MD232LL/A = $1,463.98
- Apple MacBook Pro MB990LL/A = $1,194.00
- Sony VAIO VGN-CR420E/L = $1,099.99
- Sony A55VHZ 16.2 MP Digital SLR = $1,049.00
- 2012 Apple 11-inch iPad Pro = $924.19
On the web, there is a statistic that said the average Amazon Prime customer spends $2,400 per year. Prime was introduced in 2005 but did not become popular until 2011. Here is my spend by year.
After COVID, I went shopping crazy and bought a lot of stuff. I also forgot to add return data, although I do not return many items from Amazon.
