I honestly do not understand.

-Disorganized website

-No customer service or live chat

-Tax on pretty much all items

-Hard to get in touch with sellers

-Often mediocre photos of the product

-Average pricing on most products

Subpar, defective merchandise, that neither Amazon nor their vendors are willing to be responsible for

Rude vendors

Lazy and disorganized customer service

---

On the other hand they support gay marriage and sell online cable packages, so I guess Millenials love them

So do it at Walmart then? I won't support Walmart because their shitbox stores ruined the Americana aesthetic and made it so disgusting people can live and breed cheaply. I like Amazon because they enable me to purchase goods without ever having to brush elbows with the people who go to Walmart.

-2 day shipping on small items like that is standard in 2018. Literally put the stuff in an envelope and mail it out.

-If you looked around, you'd probably find the same item for the same price elsewhere.

Mostly one-stop shopping for a lot of things. Usually not the cheapest, but I don't want to spend 10 mins looking around to save $2 on bar soap anymore.

Their customer service is actually okay. Returns are easy. They'll often refund you and just let you keep the thing if it's not up to expectations.

It's really become an eBay-level shitshow, though. There will be 10 listings for the same product, with different options within each. Also, as xo has scholarship on, there's tons of garbage on there now.

Live chat often sucks and takes 15 minutes between connecting with "Dave" or "Kelly" and then having that person take forever to respond with canned answers while zhe deals with 15 other active live chats. You just send an email. It's really not that bad.

honestly, the worst thing about amazon is something you didn't even mention:

every product now has chinese competitors with inflated reviews that are supposedly better than legacy brands, but are typically shit, pure shit. it's a constant battle where you're wondering if you're getting duped or missing out on some great savings.

i fucking hate their reviews so much. and good luck going to google! every cocksucker has a blog with affiliate links to more bullshit products!

it's very hard to know objectively what is best anymore unless you're really into something already

Convenient as shit + great return policy so it doesn't matter if you get fucked over on some bs made in china product + 99% of the time they are competitively priced and it's much easier to track shit on one website than fumbling around between multiple competitors trying track shipping, return policies, etc.

I want something, go to Amazon.com, click buy it now and get it 2 days later. It is just so fucking easy and prices are usually decent. They also give 0.5% to my local humane society via smile.amazon.com and sometimes give me shipping credits if I don't need something right away, plus subscribe and save gives me 15% off.

I still get some shit off of ebay or whatever I see cheap on slickdeals but Amazon is my go to for most things.

Diapers, baby stuff and other common household items like laundry detergent are cheaper on amazon than Costco. Also I can’t better prices for certain brands of dog treats and food elsewhere. I don’t buy off 3rd party sellers though, all stuff sold by amazon itself.

For ordering a bunch of random shit and getting it delivered in many cases next day, or at most two, nothing beats them. They do have live chat who will gladly refund shit basically no questions asked. Throw in their streaming + music + you can milk your alum .edu for discounted Prime and there is no reason not to use them.

Now, for expensive electronics, I'll use B&H or Adorama to avoid sales tax. For a lot of mid priced consumer electronics (e.g. electric toothbrushes) I'll use Costco for their ridiculous return policy.
