Kind of, yeah? A few years later I deleted my Amazon account because Amazon became the new AliExpress and I could usually find everything for cheaper on eBay.

your one anecdotal situation is in no way indicative of amazon's business. They are much bigger today than it was before!

I hate to tell you, but that momentous setback has not yet caused Amazon to collapse.

Yes, of course. But that's when Amazon died for me, as a product.

Which is not an answer to the question “Was The Washington Post the tipping point where Amazon started to collapse?”, which you were responding to.

I don’t eat at McDonalds, but that doesn’t make me think they’re going to collapse. In fact they’re likely successful for precisely for the reasons I don’t eat there.
