Just yesterday, there was an article in the WaPo entitled: It’s not your imagination: Shopping on Amazon has gotten worse. It was largely concerning how search results are overwhelmingly promotional now.

What bothers me most about the situation with this “seller” and others of its ilk, is that Amazon is making the buyers jump through so many hoops to get their money back, when it’s obvious that the seller no longer exists. Maybe that’s part of its cunning plan; make refunds for non-delivery sufficiently difficult that buyers do more due diligence on their own. We know that Amazon does none. Moreover, I assume that Amazon was able to claw back most if not all of the money paid, but they make money on the float hence the delay in refunds.
