The case for ending Amazon’s dominance

Yep, recently I've been buying Chess sets and Amazon sucks absolute balls at that, I can't filter the over priced shite from the decent stuff and figuring out who is supplying what is hard.

In the end I just bought from a uk chess specific supplier and all my questions where answered on the page.

Now that's a niche I acknowledge that but still with all their data and product ranges a small online retailer beat them.

Exactly. Amazon's SRPs are an utterly miserable browsing experience because it's so hard to separate the wheat from the chaff. So many no-name Chinese garbage importers, out-of-stock-except-for-gougers, redundant listings for the same product, etc. Stuff you'd never have to deal with on a meatspace store shelf.
