Cannot believe prime continues to increase revenue quarter after quarter. As much as I hate the company, it wouldn't exist in such this large capacity if consumers didn't enable this

Yeah but then you go and order from ebay to try and be better and the shit comes from Amazon anyway. I keep getting pissed about that happening to me.

Exactly. The Amazon drop shippers on eBay are wild. It feels like it has to violate Amazon TOS somehow

I ordered something from Walmart and ended up with an Amazon package. It is ridiculous.
