I guess they try to hit people like me. I have only one online shopping account connected to my real name. It's on Amazon. Back then I got it to buy books in english. It worked pretty well for some time with other products too.

However. Seeing this, I would rather pirate the game then allow them to force me into Prime.

Thanks to the messed up DHL delivery guys here I already started to discover shops in my area again. Especially for electronics and other fragile products.

This has the be the weakest justification I have ever seen for piracy and believe me, I've seen a few.

It wasn't supposed to be one. I assumed the sentence following this would outline my usual way to acquire products besides amazon.

I wanted to show that even if I had no choice, I wouldn't buy into this.
