Your story is a true tragedy and hearing such stories makes me feel sad.

I believe it’s, mostly, these unfair, monopolistic practices that made those companies giants because they can, technically, crush anyone willing to swim in their red ocean.

Normally, you could easily file a lawsuit against them and got them pay you 10x the damage they caused.




Amazon became a giant because they were genuinely good before they became what they are now. For a long time, they offered a superior online shopping experience. The prices were good, the processing time was faster than anyone else, the shipping was fast and reliable, the site was easy to use, etc. Then all the third party sellers, whack-a-mole Chinese brands, and counterfeits took over the site. I thought Amazon was great when they were the retailer instead of a marketplace.
