I haven't bought expensive stuff from amazon for years but still used it occasionally to fill some gaps from my shopping list for small special items that I couldn't find offline. You can easily get all of that in other online shops or marketplaces like eBay but you'd have to order everything separately: You'll pay shipping multiple times and produce way more waste for packaging.

Sample shopping list:

Sweetening vanilla flavor drops (you typically get those in sport related shops where you also get protein powder)
Yellow or green shoe laces with 140cm length
Environment-friendly sunscreen stick with UV protection of 50

I know individual online shops where I can all of that but is there a shop where I might get this (or similar weird combinations of stuff) all in one box?

Kind regards, rbn

And there we are with another Amazon with all the nasty business practices. I think it would be inevitable in this era and economy.

Probably true. If we had a more left leaning economic system, it could be the job of the government to regulate these things. To uptain a healthy competition, that companies aren't expanding more and more and if they do, to split them up into smaller parts.
