They sold something I wanted for 30% less than a local business. I asked to business to match or get close to it because I would rather pay them.
They refused and said it's thanks to amazon bulk buying items.
No discount on future sales or anything so I went with amazon. Oh well.

I mean I tried, even said I'll buy x amount of stuff more if you can drop the price a little. Still nothing.
I guess 0 money from me is better than moving stock out the door and having a returning customer. :/
They were pretty blunt too. 0% discount was the best offer lol.

Yes, this is the reason why Amazon has to be dealt at legislative level. It has become a monopoly and should be dealt as such.
This is nothing new, in the process of BECOMING a monopoly a company actualy provides good service.
Once they ARE a monopoly they WILL screw you as hard as they can, obviously.
At the moment they are screwing the delivery guy.
We are next

Cancelling audible subscription is even more of a hassle. You can't do it from the app or from their mobile site (which your browser defaults to if you're on mobile). They make it as difficult as possible to cancel while still maintaining that plausible deniability that they're not doing it.

Audible resubscribed me twice without my authorization, and auto billed me for months each time before I caught on. I called to complain, and they refunded me every cent I ever spent on the service, including when I was actually using it. I think the woman I was talking to understood the scam and was doing her part to fuck them. I told her I was happy to pay for the service when I was using it, but she insisted on giving me all of my money back. Works for me. Definitely not signing up again though. I just wish I could download the file for the audiobook without having to subscribe to Audible. I never thought I would be torrenting audiobooks...

Live in BFE midwest, and it's kind of a staple if I don't want to drive three hours for something.
Still hate them, though...

Audio adapter from the XLR to phone, with the right polarity and diameter

Amazon is providing a service, now, I just do not want to be screwed later, so, I wish for competition to exist / remain
