Amazon has basically become a delivery company with a shop front and no responsibility.

Their selling fees are utterly incomprehensible, but their calculator reckons you'll get about half the money for a £18 item and about 60% of it for a £45 item.

I feel like for that sort of cut, Amazon should be taking full responsibility for the fire hazard bullshit available from them.

Amazon, Uber, Deliveroo, etc are just leeches.
