I stopped shopping at Amazon last year due to all their bullshit. But twice now I’ve bought from other retailers, Zappos and eBay, and the products were still delivered by Amazon. Actually it’s happened several times from eBay.

Only last year? I've been avoiding them for a long time. You can almost always find a "thing.com" store that sells just the thing I need and the blurb is written by someone independent who knows the subject and can tell me why or why not it is worth spending money on the more expensive version.
