Thanks! I had misunderstood what “buy box” is

As a consumer I definitely avoid products with no buy box. I thought it was only related to Amazon fulfillment (which in turn I use as a proxy for being likely to receive the product on time and undamaged)

That's funny. I _only_ buy things from Amazon that are not shipped by Amazon.

Their logistics are utter garbage for me - part of it is an urban setting with nowhere to leave things, part of it is that they don't give a shit, and leave things.
