- I read a book about Rockefeller once....and it was the same thing. They got so big that no small oil producer could compete. They did stuff like Amazon doesdkoblesky
- Teddy Roosevelt came along and started changing that. That needs to happen now with Amazon, Google....etc It is timedkoblesky
- buy your tripod from a shopify store instead. problem solved. no need to vilify capitalismhotroddy
- unless your utopian who talks shit about capitalism yet is an amazon prime memberhotroddy
- Just another reason to avoid these prickssection_014
- @hotroddy, vilify capitalism? So free-market, without the free? Which is it?twooh
- i said it already. buy your shit elsewherehotroddy
- shopify gives you the tools to competehotroddy
- Hotroddy is right but rather than selling in somebody else's venue (Amazon, Etsy), people need to create their own venue.MondoMorphic

- buying from small businesses is the answer.
Shopify is as convenient as Amazon. But I guess not for you, Mr. Amazon Prime memberhotroddy - Amazon WISHES it owned shopify stock. It would vilify Shopify, Mr. Amazon prime memberhotroddy

- don't believe you. You've said that twice in the last to years yet you keep suggesting movies in "suggest a good movie thread" the week it comes out on primehotroddy
- the times I've called you out on it you said membership was cancelled and you were just staying it's course while it expired.hotroddy
- Looks like Amazon copied China's business model. This also happens with custom productsHayoth
- Support companies directly or purchase their products as locally as possible. You consumed before Amazon and can do so without it.ben_
- It's trickle down economics. Ask Bezos.NBQ00
- Lol buy from Shopify. Good luck finding that shop, with legitimate reviews, return policy, delivered next day shipping on the random piece of hardware you need.jtb26
- The tripods were mass produced in a Chinese factory and marketed by a small business as well as hundreds of othersspot13
- I would argue independent site's reviews are more credible than amazon who has a history of faking/surpressing reviews.hotroddy
- and on average independant sites have better customer service.hotroddy
- fuck me if you are too lazy to take the 5 minutes to research the 5 million tripods on the market.hotroddy
- you have facebook, google, instagram, shop pay, and a million other resources outside amazon ecosystem.hotroddy
- and if an extra two-three days delivery is a deal breaker than you shouldn't bitch and probably deserve Amazon's businesshotroddy
- no one is putting a gun to your head and plenty of options. If amazon spoiled you like a little bitch that's on you.hotroddy
- can't have it both ways. either amazon pays it's employees $15 an hour so it can afford overnight free shipping to your spoiled lazy ass.hotroddy
- or it pays employees $50 an hour and YOU pay for 7 day shippinghotroddy
- @hotroddy "i said it already. buy your shit elsewhere". You didn't say it. It got delisted from the Amazon marketplace. That's not free market.twooh
- amazon is a company, not the free market.hotroddy
