That and they've gone the wall-mart route of actually PUSHING anything / the lowest price possible.

I get stuff that's like 5% cheaper but quality looks to be about 50% the quality pushed on me all the time on Amazon now.

I went to Amazon originally to find QUALITY products that my local stores didn't carry because of price pressures. Now Amazon seems to be switching to just being ... wall-mart and that's already near me...

It has gotten so bad that I've searched for good products on Amazon that I know were there, and they're gone. Like if you don't want a crappy HDMI switch that looks like every other cheap HDMI switch, your options seem to be fewer and fewer.

And that doesn't account for the questionable health products that they push on me for no apparent reason (i've never surfed for or bought such products form them...or anyone).

Increasingly Amazon wants to tell me what to buy, and what they tell me is they want me to buy garbage.
