I stopped buying from Amazon about a year ago for the following reasons: - too many fake reviews - unclear geographic origin of sellers (twice accidentally had to wait couple weeks for items to arrive from China) - too many counterfeit products - obnoxious Prime services being imposed on me - Prime Video is so far below Netflix in comparison - regarding any aspect - it's not even funny - many stories of Amazon bullying customers - too many items that have been obviously previously returned and been badly repacked - greedy fees are existential threats to publishing houses - Amazon abuses its staff --- and now the interesting insight. getting rid of Amazon is not even close to as difficult or uncomfortable as banning Facebook from one's life or trying to buy only fair trade. it was super simple and not in the slightest an inconvenience. I use idealo.de for comparing prices and order straight from any of the other hundreds of shops on there.
