If you're looking for the lowest price, Amazon probably isn't the best place to look. While I don't buy paper towels on the internet, when I look at low end things like an ESP32 dev board, or a set of small screw drivers, EBay is by far the better deal even when limited to "Fast and Free" delivery. Aliexpress usually has even better deals, though usually with much longer shipping times.
- zapstar 7y agoThat’s a great point. Amazon isn’t a good deal for many things. The example I recall is mason jars. I never had a need for mason jars and had never bought them before. But then I needed some to brew cold brew. Looked them up on Amazon and thought “I guess $5 a piece is reasonable?” At a local hardware store, I found the same exact ones for $1. They get away with higher prices because people don’t know that a better deal exists elsewhere (because they don’t know what a reasonable price point even is). I don’t plan on adding product types that are a bad deal on Amazon. At this point, I’ve added products that I genuinely purchase on Amazon. (Can you tell that I have a two-year-old that likes crayons, chalk, and Duplo?)
