Amazon is not a secret weapon, poison pill maybe?

This is a company that is actively shooting itself in the foot on all fronts and by the time they realize it’s gone too far they won’t be able to turn the ship fast enough.

Amen.

I have had so many issues with orders from Amazon recently that they told me I’m on a watch list for returns and could have my account terminated.

I’ve been a customer for about 20 years with this account.

I’ll be shopping at other retailers now.

If you had asked me five years ago if I'd be regularly ordering from walmart.com instead of amazon.com, I'd have thought it unlikely. But here I am -- I don't have to worry about counterfeits as long as it's sold & shipped by Walmart, and I can get same-day delivery (usually within an hour or two) for the cost of a tip. Their inventory is different (many more consumer staples, at better prices; many fewer random long-tail products), but it's replaced maybe 1/4 of my Amazon purchases. I also order from target.com once in a while; I never ever used to.

Amazon has not lost, but it is definitely losing its unique edge.
