I came in here to see what everyone thought of joining. There is a lot a chatter about the fee… I’m not fond of trees either…
Question. Do you shop at Costco, Sam’s club or Amazon? These all have yearly fees.

@Steven554 Welcome to our community, we are glad to have you with us. 
The above should have answered your question. 
I shop Amazon but do not pay the subscription, it just takes a few days longer and you still get free shipping. 
I also delete my credit card from my account after every transaction.

I used to shop costco. With Costco I would buy enough to cover my fee for the next year plus get money over and above. Mammoth is a $250 lifetime deal. How long will Mammoth be around? 2, 5,7,10 years? I don’t Shop Costco much anymore.
Are you a Mammoth rep or something?

No, I was just reading all the comments and was wondering how folks felt about retail that charges a fee to shop. I don’t see any difference. I haven’t joined Mammoth yet, outside of the fee I’m still deciding if it’s worth it. I buy American made when I can. I don’t like Amazon because sometimes you don’t know where your product is coming from. But I do have a prime account

In following these thoughts, i must say that having spent many years in the corporate world before retiring, i learned that there are always prices to pay for every program. It depends on how it appeals to you. For example, Amazon has everything you can probably think of. Have you ever compared the price of things or quality of those things with other vendors? I have! Most times, Amazon is 2 to 3 times higher than other vendors, where the item can be purchased directly. How much is your time worth to shop around & find a cheaper price? And why would you? So pay into a membership and discounted prices on quality products or pay more on each item with questionable quality. And i love having exposure, for a membership price, to all those great, quality products at Costco.
I can look at the product before i buy it Additionally what govt controls are over the quality of the product you receive at Amazon. Don’t get me started on the safety to your family. So we have safety regulations in the US for a reason.
So i guess in my last thought, i realize that bringing together all those many vendors to meet our needs & provide quailty services and products that represent our like minded patriotism just dosen’t have an overhead cost. There must be some administrative cost behind that effort. Would you volunteer your time at no cost? And who knows what competetion can bring to all these big box industries…

I’m not pushing a platform that wants my money for me to go shopping. I was a member of Costco and my purchases paid for my membership plus money back.
How long will this website be around? Websites typically don’t last. Will my $250,I think, lifetime membership be lost in 5 or less years? That’s the usual time a business has to last to succeed. As stated I don’t like paying for a business’ advertising. That is a part of doing business. For me it’s an additional price on top of the price I would pay.no thank you.
As I was once told: you don’t get rich by giving your money away. Also, a fool and his money are soon parted.
I don’t know, I’m a boomer and according to this generation my thinking is old school. I should pay $8 for a cup of coffee. A bottomless cup of coffee used to be 25 cents. You tell who’s the uneducated person.

Just elect strong conservatives into office and there would not be a need for such organizations although Sam’s and Cisco charge you to there. Smart voting might eliminate people like Lisa Murkowski, Susan Collins and Mitch McConnell.

At least with Costco, I could cover the cost of the yearly membership and get some back. I haven’t checked into it, does Mamath Nation do the same? Also Mammoth Nation is a website. How long b4 it disappears or gets bought up and the conditions change? I still don’t like the idea of paying a third party involved in my shopping. If you find value in their services, more power to you. I think it’s a ripoff.

I dont understand why they cant just charge .50 cents to each order and it would absolutely cover the price to join.
I never thought about joining because of the fee of joining.
They really need to rethink charging.

Just another company looking to profit from the American consumer. They advertise the web site, and charge both the creator and the consumer. * Brand Stores agree to a five-percent commission/fee percentage amount will be paid to Mammoth Nation for all transactions completed through the Mammoth Site. V3 NEW Lifetime Membership , is the membership link for $250. A simple web search will direct you to a company that makes the desired product made wherever or by whoever you want. Takes a few more seconds, but if those seconds are worth $250 a year by all means give them your hard earned money. Or if you are selling a product you can agree to a 5% fee to every sale you make generated by thier web site from consumers who willingly paid for a membership.

I too don’t need to pay a fee to buy high priced items.
Something is wrong with this.
