Amazon basically.
Some things are near impossible to get in a reasonable time frame, or get shipped from China anyway if i get them at the source.
Also returns aren't a maze of bullshit and return fees like many other online sites.
Amazon sucks but their return/refund policies are amazing. I pretty much never have to worry about a lost or missing package.
Exactly. Amazon alternatives in India aren't great when it comes to returns and refunds.
Even if I'm going to buy the thing from a different ruthless conglomerate, I often check Amazon just to look at more reviews first.
I manage to live without Amazon. I just pretend it doesn't exist, I don't know if it's cheaper or quicker on Amazon as I don't see it (I use a search engine that can block results). It's also probably other aspects of my life that also make it possible, spare money, spare time, no kids, live in a city.
