I understand you, but maybe it's now a race to the bottom.
As a consumer, you may want nice things, but most people want cheap things, Amazon is a business, they just want to make maximum revenue. If they're making profits operating this way, it will continue and unfortunately, maybe the competition is catching up too quickly to turn it all around.
I have family who actually buy from Alibaba because, they know it's dirt, dirt cheap, consumers love paying the lowest price, even if it means damage to society and in my opinion, Joe six pack doesn't give a damn about "quality". They don't care, so log as they're getting $5 dollar bed sheets.

How will Amazon change that?
