Struggling to find a date for Valentine’s Day? Worry not, because Amazon Dating has got you covered.
Before you get your hopes up real high, here’s some news for you… This is a JOKE!
Yes, a joke thanks to the very creative minds of Ani Acopian and Suzy Shinn. Since the two are pretty fond of both Amazon and dating, they decided to combine the two, and voila, Amazon Dating was born!

Amazon For Literally All Your Needs
The site features, in pure Amazon style, an array of individuals and their ‘prices’ for you to choose from. When you click on the person of your choice, the page redirects you to their ‘details’ – from their likes and dislikes to even their ‘Customer Reviews’.
There’s even an option for Prime users, not to mention a ‘Deal of the Day’ as well.
Although, you may need to be on your toes because some of these profiles will be off the market pretty soon.
Other Easter Eggs To Catch On
The website has managed to capture literally every little nuance. The ‘Prime Video’ option redirects you to a Chat Roulette while an option saying ‘Your Last Relationship’ links to Britney Spears’s ‘Toxic‘ music video.
Fun, right?
If that weren’t enough, you’d be instantly redirected to a tutorial on how to unhook a bra if you click on ‘Help’. The site even has a ‘Non-Ghosting Agreement’ in case you happened to click on the ‘Legal’ link.

But the ‘FAQ page’ is quite frank and declares the site to be nothing but a joke.
What’s more, the site is complete with a ‘Sign Up’ and ‘Contact’ option in case you were looking to get hooked up, ahem, connected.
Reactions
Seeing that the site now features over 10,000 real people, it is safe to say that everyone is on board with the idea. A lot of people took to Twitter to note their approval.
A dystopian America where you sign up for Amazon-Dating and they match you solely based off your purchase history.

the attention to detail is amazing.
Those batshit amazon product urls, the header copy and links, cheaper second-hand options for third parties…

Even though, the website’s handle was suspended for violating Twitter’s rules, creator Ani Acopian promised to write ‘parody’ in the handle’s description, if it gets restored.
