I’ve been trying to avoid shopping on Amazon for several years. For computer parts, I look at Newegg. For pet stuff, Chewy.

But what about all the miscellaneous stuff? What other websites do you trust when it comes to shopping online?

    why? I really like amazon, it’s super convenient - like, I dont have to worry about buying gifts anymore - especially for my relatives, they’re really difficult to shop for - I just do the amazon gift card.

    I order a fair amount of tools, utility goods, and snacks via amazon because they just arent sold around here, or it’s just cheaper on amazon when you factor in the fact I dont pay for shipping.

      Well if the headlines on human rights violations and fraud weren’t enough to make you think twice, I doubt my experience today watching a senior man wrestle a huge TV out of his non-air-conditioned Amazon truck by himself for my neighbor would change your mind.

        honestly? no, not in the least. not sure how he qualified for that job if he struggled with delivering packages. delivering packages is 50% or more of what Amazon is all about.
