This is the only thing Amazon has done annoying enough to get me to buy elsewhere (other than, occasionally, price comparisons).
- dingaling 8y agoParticularly when they started reclassifying formerly-purchasable items, that I had in my order history, as Add-Ons. I would have grudgingly accepted that if they'd just said "sorry, they're too expensive to ahip individually" but their PR kept spinning a tale about hugely expanded range. Instead I started buying small items on eBay, paying the small amount of postage required, which led to buying bigger things and eventually barely looking at Amazon any more.
