Hahaha! Congrats, I actually chuckled.

Technically though, I don't think there's anything that by default is purchasable via CLI. But, yes, that's why it's funny.

Sounds good...

The hooks for Amazon Dash are likely closed as it was phased out a year after start.

Personally I don't think I'd ever want to build a product on top of a huge company's product. That way lies madness.
