I'm in Europe and I buy over 90% of my stuff from Amazon.

Where are you and from which online retailers do you buy?

europe, i buy nothing from amazon, everything I checked there cost there more than in local chains/supermarkets/eshops, so I don't really understand hype about it, same goes for illegal uber drivers which cost more than licensed taxi ordered through taxi aggregator app

same goes for china where pretty much nobody use amazon with their 90s website design

Seconding this. I have never bought anything from Amazon. People here don't even consider it when making a choice. They just buy from allegro (our local eBay) and from thousands of on-line stores.

I don't know if Amazon has some cheap delivery here in Poland or do they ship everything from abroad.

BTW would you mind telling me some recent purchases and their prices so i can compare it and let you know

because when i checked tablets, mobiles and pretty much anything, everything was more expensive than in local eshops, if it's Chinese phone or some noname stuff then AliExpress is the king
