Re:Download a CSV of your Amazon purchases

Right, but for the average user, it's not really feasible for them to receive a megabytes-large CSV of data in whatever format Amazon decides to provide, and then transform that into the necessary format for import into <Etsy/Ebay/Shopify>. We could make tools to do so, but then Amazon could just change what format they use for export, so we'd need to update the tools...
Regarding importing: you as a user have the right to provide your downloaded data to a different party, but there's nothing in GDPR that says that party must offer the necessary import capability.

okay yeah you're still describing Article 20:
> the data subject shall have the right to have the personal data transmitted directly from one controller to another, where technically feasible
> Article 20 \n Right to data portability \n 1. The data subject [you] shall have the right to receive the personal data concerning him or her, which he or she has provided to [the company], in a structured, commonly used and machine-readable format and have the right to transmit those data to another controller without hindrance
