I’m fucking tired of all these websites making you give your email, and hunt for a coupon and a sale to buy something while Amazon has the same item for the same “discounted” price from the get go, as much as I hate supporting Amazon, these other companies don’t make it any easier to buy from them, and on top of that their orders take 6-10 days to deliver and many times require a minimum dollar amount before free delivery kicks in, while Amazon can deliver it in 2 days for free.
I usually use my siblings prime account to order which I guess bypasses that requirement, but even without prime I think Amazon’s minimum is usually far less than some other online stores
I think it depends where you live, for me the minimum is $35 which is basically on par with others. I find that I can often get lower cost items with free shipping on ebay for around the same price as similar items on amazon to avoid having to meet an order minimum, although it depends on what I’m buying.
Nope, most things you can buy new on amazon you can also buy new on ebay. Sometimes it comes in packaging with labels implying it was shipped from other retailers like amazon, walmart or home depot, I’m assuming this is because some sellers get memberships for free shipping and arbitrage it.

Yeah I tend to avoid Amazon and only extremely rarely do I buy from them. I mostly buy on eBay and direct from the company websites nowadays
Amazon also has a minimum dollar amount before free delivery kicks in
