Hup!

When we lost the first fight for net neutrality.

It’s a catch 22 because if you already know the seller but are opting for their Amazon vendor e-commerce channel you’re undercutting their business by taking Amazon’s promo discount on shipping today and forcing the seller to make up the difference in vendor fees. Then when your favorite reasonable merchants that balance price and quality get squeezed out of business by cheap knockoffs competing on the same platform in 1-5 years you’ll wonder why you can’t find quality products of that type anymore except from niche boutique merchants who have to charge even more to ship quality to your door than they used to.

Oh thabks for clarifying I guess since the problem hasn’t happened to you in particular its not actually a problem. /s

The part that’s infuriating isn’t the phrase. Its a good phrase when used correctly. It’s annoying that your friend is explicitly hating on your personal opinion after stating they want to respect your difference of opinion.

People have different opinions. One person’s “ew” is a other person’s “oooh.” So never yuck someone else’s yum.

Nah you’re just bad at online shopping.

And you will have no recourse wheb the product you buy is (a) not what you thought you were getting, (b) going to break in a month or two or © set your house on fire if you leave it plugged in.

“Free market” is neither free not cheap.
