I don't use amazon any more because of a combination of Jeff Bezos being weird, stories of workers being treated unfairly, and how I ordered a pen from one of the sellers on amazon and got shipped an obvious fake. Now, granted, amazon did let me return it for full refund after I sent it back, but that experience soured me on them, because if I go into a staples or office max or one of a bout fifty dedicated pen websites, I won't be shipped a cheap and clearly fake fake pen...Granted, this was a shady amazon seller and not amazon directly, but they allow this kind of stuff to happen on their platform, so they are at fault. I'm also pretty certain other than getting my money refunded, nothing happened to the seller, even though I put the reason for return is that I got shipped a fake pen.

While we are on the topic of pens, that pen I lost the other day(I made a thread about) isn't even on Amazon, so I couldn't buy it from there to replace it. But, since I've been burned once before, I really wouldn't be buying it from amazon either. Or Ebay, because of potential similar issues from individual sellers on a marketplace type setup.
