Maybe thats the problem with people these days!
People only care about price so now everything is built as cheap as possible, corners cut everywhere so now everything is shit.. because it needs to be cheap! It’s getting harder to find anything that seems built to last more than a year.
As scummy as Amazon might be, they’re still the only company that offers anything that resembles convenience. eBay could’ve challenged Amazon but profit over service and those in charge walking round with their head up there arse’s and now it’s a poor copy of aliexpress that seems to be 90% chinese crap in the UK! I’m not wasting an hour trawling every online store when I know Amazon has it… so what if its £3 more!
And sadly the cheap money has gone and no-one wants to offer a better Amazon because there’s money in it because… everyone wants everything cheap! 🤦♂️😞
