Re:Amazon knew seller data was used to boost company sales by ceejayoz on Monday May 03, 2021 @07:02AM (#27023583)
An apt comparison - most of the farmers’ markets around here have been ruined by resellers, too.

No, those Driscoll strawberries in March didn’t come from upstate New York farms.

Seriously, though. Between reselling and 'owner/operator businesses' (read: pyramid schemes selling oils, scents, candles, and makeup), the local farmer's market is just an absolute train wreck anymore.

Local farmers who used to sell at the farmer's market have moved to subscription boxes, from what I can tell.
