I use amazon, I don't really like amazon, but I do respect the logistics network they built. They really showed everyone else how it should be done and they seem to keep improving.
That being said, the biggest problem with Amazon is their contract to sell on their site has clauses in it that force you to give amazon the lowest price you sell for elsewhere. Since amazon has very unreasonable fees for selling on their site (that keep getting worse), this basically forces a price hike everywhere because a seller can't afford to miss out on the large volume of amazon and stops any other place from pulling an amazon on amazon itself and outcompete them on price until they have large market share. These kind of contracts should really be illegal, or at least limited to net of site fees.
