Amazon started out being the retailer, and moved into the space of being a platform. I remember way back when they only sold products from themselves. coincidentally the more amazon moved to being a platform for 3rd party sellers, the less I used them l. I rarely use amazon for anything today because the volume of garbage easily outweighs the good products, mad it's like rolling craps dice if you get a good seller. I opt to purchase directly from the manufacturer or a known retailer that know owns the product they are selling now, if I use amazon, it is exclusively for amazon brand products only. if this type of behavior pushes 3rd party sellers off the platform and returns amazon to their glory days of being the actual retailer, I think it's a good move
