    It’d worse than things like Temu. With that you just know you’re buying cheap knockoffs with let’s say questionable quality. On Amazon, you don’t know what quality you’re getting, for a worse price, and even worse delivery times (my last purchase from Amazon took 2 months to deliver. For a book!).

      Amazon has basically become a delivery company with a shop front and no responsibility.

      Their selling fees are utterly incomprehensible, but their calculator reckons you’ll get about half the money for a £18 item and about 60% of it for a £45 item.

      I feel like for that sort of cut, Amazon should be taking full responsibility for the fire hazard bullshit available from them.

      Amazon, Uber, Deliveroo, etc are just leeches.
