My experience with prime delivery in 2023 is that it has gone from two days to four days to two weeks to completely lost fuck you trying to get a refund.

Further, I stopped using eBay in the late 2000s because everything there became "fell off a truck in China" quality. This is what a vast percentage of Amazon product has become.

This is the crux desire to cancel.

eBay has its uses, especially when you’re trying to find used genuine parts for whatever you’re working on, but other than that both eBay and Amazon seem to be flooded with Chinese crap

I bought a new fire stick from Amazon, it didn't work so I sent it back as defective. They sent me a refurbished one, and I had to fight them for weeks to accept that I paid for a new one, not a refurb.

This is exactly why I cancelled.
