  • Unsure how much better ebay and etsy are but I often use amazon to research products and either find a way to direct order or use ebay instead.

    One of my hobbies is fucking amazon over. Often I’ll order from both amazon and ebay (or direct from manufacturer), the item comes from amazon in two days and start using it, when the same item comes from ebay I’ll return the used one back to amazon and keep the ebay bought one.

    edit: another way to fuck amazon over is to find the item used (cheaper) on ebay, buy it and order same one new from amazon, hold onto for few weeks and send the used one back to amazon. Fuck them entirely.

    I only do these with items shipping from amazon warehouses, not private sellers.

    I have an old friend who’s a landlord and he’s almost always been super chill. He was an old school cannabis grower and bought all his properties using revenue from his gardens. Lives in small tourist/retirement town in Southern Oregon where property value is really high, housing options very limited.

    He stopped growing about 10 years ago and now travels the world about half the year and manages the properties the other half. He’s got it almost set and forget. He’s also a seasoned carpenter/builder so does all his own repairs and renovations.
