    It absolutely does that. Try selling on Amazon. It’s like a sellers concentration camp. You have zero control.

    Also:

    Usury should be extended to retail because it is highway robbery how HVAC companies put a 75% up-charge on their equipment because we need A/C. That’s robbery.

      To be fair, it’s hell for buyers and employees too. We’re all suffering together.

      Hmm, should I buy from NGHINXY, Feelssoft, or KlaPow today? Ten thousand 5-star reviews must mean they’re all good. Or maybe I’ll get a counterfeit SD card. Or some expired OTC medication. So many mediocre choices from the American internet’s largest trash merchant!

      3/4 of the HVAC places here won’t actually sell you parts. They list parts on their sites, but when you call, they say, “We don’t sell parts, but we’re happy to come out and repair your A/C or furnace.”
