I don't get the Amazon bashing. My experience is nothing like that:

Kitchen scale, $20 bucks, looks and operates exactly as described; three years later, it still works fine.

Bed sheets, $16, two days later delivered, better than I thought - at least for the price that is. Best price/quality ratio I could get.

If I don't like something, returning is super convenient; I drop it off at Kohl's over the weekend. Time and again I am stupefied of how is it possible that in small town USA, I can get something shipped by next day while paying a one time yearly fee.

I think Amazon is the best online shopping experience on the planet.

At the employee side, the minimum pay at Amazon is $20 per hour. Walmart is $14, AliExpress ... we can be only guessing at that
