    Amazon is the shop, I go to when I can’t find it literally anywhere else.
    The search is dysfunctional. The shipping information assumes a Prime subscription. There is constantly some try-hard upsell-advertising. And Amazon is usually not even competitive on price. The emails don’t even matter - I download the invoices.

      Don’t forget the fact that you absolutely, positively cannot trust the quality of the item that will arrive. At this point, you’re much more likely to get some third party knock off with a lot of popular items.

      Usability-reducing features like this do me a favor by giving me yet another reason to use Amazon less and less.
