They're still the only company that can get stuff shipped to rural Canada at a decent price. AliExpress often comes out more expensive once you pay for shipping, and you lose the return policy as well.
Buy from a Canadian company you say? Ha! Long before Amazon existed the prices were already inflated and shipping was insane. Amazon was a breath of fresh air just by bringing US prices to Canada.
Except for specific items like tools and PC components, Amazon still beats every shop in Canada.
