What's the barrier to entry? It's hardly a requirement to sell on Amazon. It's extremely straightforward to sell stuff on the internet these days.
Sellers are just complaining that they can't access Amazon's audience and do as they want. Luckily there's eBay, Shopify, Wix, etc. etc.
- alkonaut 3y agoA free market is where everyone can sell their products in the town square. Amazon isn't a seller on the town square, they are (a large part of) the town square. And that's not in the best interest of consumers long term. There are other examples, such as Apple's app store that have this pattern too. It's true that there are other players, but when Amazon has the market share it has, it's often not feasible to ignore that customer group. And that means customers pay too much.
