  1. Amazon still delivered the product because they use Amazon for their own fulfillment.

Literally just had this happen.

    Increasing cases of ebay and individual vendors dropshipping from amazon.

    Ohh i'll just spend an extra 5 to keep bezos out of it...

    Bezos still gets his cut and some asshole just ordered it to my address for a fiver.

    You can give a negative rating and open a return, makes it difficult for that dropshipper.

    I stopped using ebay because this kept happening, and they're just another publicly traded company anyway.

    True, but of all the options we have it's the lesser of the two evils.

    Unless the govt claws back from the grave and finds some form of non-corporate ownership, it's the best we can do

    Plus, the product wasn't any cheaper, and the company was so unresponsive over a defective item that I had to literally sic the BBB on them just to get a reply. It was a terrible experience leaving Amazon and some of these stores literally only sell on Amazon and nowhere else. It's just really idealistic, though I continue to check anyway.
