I like eBay - you can find and support good small sellers (people who are similar to you, just every day regular people). What made you stop shopping at Amazon out of interest? For me it was learning how Amazon treat their employees and union organisers. The pissing in bottles, the leaving the dead man lying on the floor and making people woe to around his corpse. The making people come in during a hurricane. This was 10 - 15 years ago (way before the Ring camera and AWS stuff came out); a buddy of mine get a job in an Amazon distribution centre (UK) and did 47000 steps in one shift. Some horror stories from there. So far eBay seems like the better option IMHO
I was already on the fence due to repeatedly having problems with orders being wrong or the items description being false advertising. I dropped them altogether when the various stories about working conditions came out.
I felt really bad for using Amazon after all those stories about terrible workplace conditions, but pulled the trigger and cancelled my account after Bezos sucked on Trump’s arsehole during the last US election.
