    Without Amazon I would be fucked, my local shops are very expensive and most of the time they don’t have what I need, I gave up trying to find something in shops altogether.

    For example, the other day I needed a network switch and I went to the local shops, the cheapest I could find was 40€, went on Amazon and bought one for 18€ with free shipping, Amazon and Prime made my life here so much better.
