    Gonna go against the grain and say Amazon is still good value on a lot of things in Australia and cheaper then going into a physical store.

    Which is more an indictment of how badly we’ve been getting fucked over on pricing here all our lives.

      Yea, Amazon is still a decent value in America too, frankly I just don’t understand where people are getting these comparisons from.

      Sometimes Walmart is cheaper, sometimes Amazon is cheaper, a lot of the times they’re neck and neck, but I don’t have to step into a Walmart with Amazon so that’s a huge plus for me lmao and a lot of the items are same day or next day

        If it’s handmade hardwood Japanese joinery furniture than it’s worth every penny, it’ll outlast you and you’ll hand that down to your kin.
