Amazon now has too many exclusives. On three occasions I've had to order ordinary household products from them that used to be available in town and also other tech products otherwise unavailable (sometimes no shipping to Ireland on other web sites), or only from much dodgier sites. Most stuff on Amazon DE delivers here (not ebooks) and I've got paper books from Amazon US not available elsewhere (bizarre that works and USA ebooks don't work). Even a radio from Amazon USA available nowhere else. Sadly it didn't work, but return postage from Ireland to USA was free.
I'm no fan of Amazon or their monopolistic practices, or their "Dark UI" selling of Prime and KU etc, but deleting the account isn't the solution. I just buy as much as possible elsewhere.
